About time!
that RVB is our best chance of getting a 4th player picked
Congrats to Junior! Also, Chiefs fans should be excited about his potential. Get ready for jump balls!
What a steal of a pick
The difference between being a 7th round pick and an UFA is pretty significant when it comes to makng the team. The front office has invested something in the player (a draft pick) and they will get every chance to show the coaching staff they were worthy of the investment.
Go show the Chiefs what you got Jr. It's up to you now.
Meh, being a UFA gives you a lot of flexibility on who to sign with instead of only being able to sign with the 1 team that drafts you. Personally, Id want to be drafted just to say I was but there is more flexibility with a UFA than a 7th rder. For example, as a WR I wouldn't choose the Chiefs ... they already have some good ones in Bowe, Baldwin, Breaston and 4th rder Wylie. Still could make the team but thats some tough PT to steal.
of all the players who U of M could have had drafted besides Odoms who I love, Junior was my favorite. H e went through so much in his 4 or 5 years here that I am so happy for him to achieve his goal of at least getting a chance to play in the NFL. Go Blue and make us even more proud Junior than you have done already in your football career.
Congrats Junior
I think Hemingway will be better than Justin Blackmon. Book it
Um.....you aren't a betting man by any chance are you Gordie? As much of a homer as I can be the lure of easy money is just too hard to resist......
Good luck, Junior!
Really cool that I got to meet two now-NFL guys and get pictures.
Thanks for the amazing season. Go Blue!
Not sure where he'll fit in with the receiving core of Dwyane Bowe, fellow Wolverine Steve Breaston, and last year's 1st round pick Jon Baldwin, but I hope he finds a way onto the field one day. If Junior works hard on getting separation and making quick cuts on his routes, he definitely has the tools to be a receiver in the League.
I will be really suprised if he does not make an impact. congrats on getting to the league!
Obligatory:
...that needs to go in a Hype video for next year...
he will make the cheifs
he just reminds me of colston but with leaping ability

How does Toney Clemons get drafted ahead of Hemmingway? Sometimes I have no idea what NFL front offices are thinking. Then again, what does my opinion matter.
