Simeon Thomas Drafted

[facelessjonmoon]

I am not sure of the exact number, but how many of UL’s drafted players are from Louisiana over the past 10-15 years? (Is McGuire the only one?) Seems like most of our good players come from out of state.

Ike Taylor was drafted 15 years ago. From the West Bank....

So we have 3 Louisiana athletes drafted in 15 years. One thing the draft has taught us is that our top tier talent has not improved over the past 30 years.

If you’re including out of state players, Peanut makes the 15 year cutoff

As you know, sixth round players are drafted on potential and measurables. Thomas made many big plays. He's very long limbed. He's easily turned around and makes poor decisions. Things that can be improved. He's always had the physical tools.

I've always been a big supporter. Remember due to injury and NCAA issues he's rarely been properly coached for a season

I don't recall Thomas making any big plays.

He was from Florida if I recall correctly.

That means he will be on Seahawks roster. You can’t sign someone from another team and put him on your practice squad.
