Jermichael Finley, TE,
Texas
by Imran Tahir,
1/11/08. Jermichael
Finley has become the first non-Junior to declare for this year’s
Draft, and the first player ever from the Longhorn football program to
leave for the NFL with two years of eligibility left. Although he
possess good height at 6’5,” Finley’s decision comes as a bit of a
surprise given the potential for him to both further develop his
yet-lean 235 lb. frame, and polish his pass receiving and blocking
skills in college. Finley showed very good progress during his two
playing years in Austin, finishing his career with 947 yards receiving
on 76 catches, along with 5 TD’s. In an increasingly crowded TE Draft
pool, Finley’s current confidence level will have to carry over into,
and through his pre-Draft workouts and interviews in order to secure a
draft spot anywhere from late-Round 2 through the end of Round 4.
