10 is respectable. Being a top-10 Big Ten players, especially now with Nebraska, likely means a pick in the top 2 rounds, especially considering some of the guys in the top 10 won't go pro (Denard).

If Joe Webb, Matt Leinart, and Derek Anderson can "go pro," so can Denard. Borges will get him to the NFL.

I would garuntee that Denard gets a spot on an NFL team. Whether or not he succeeds in the NFL, however, is something that I wouldn't bet one way or another on him until I have seen him play more.
August 16th, 2011 at 12:04 PM ^
Whether he can succeed as an NFL QB, I agree, is a question yet to be answered.
<br>
<br>But he'll succeed in the NFL. He's too great of an athlete not to. He'd be a ridiculous kick returner at the very very least.

I think he meant that Denard is a junior.
August 16th, 2011 at 11:46 AM ^
Gotcha.
DAMMIT

Yes, I meant that at least one guy in the top 10 would be back the following year, not that he wouldn't go pro eventually.
August 16th, 2011 at 11:41 AM ^
Don't forget Drew Stanton.
August 16th, 2011 at 12:56 PM ^
You know the Eagles are going to grab Denard in two years.
August 16th, 2011 at 11:25 AM ^
Looks like Michigan will have three players in their top 12 of the Big Ten. Molk was #12, now Martin at #10, and I assume that Denard will make an appearance in the remaining top 9. Not too shabby at all.
August 16th, 2011 at 11:52 AM ^
Denard should definitely be in the top 3.

First, it makes me happy to Martin ahead of Jerel Worthy in these rankings.
Second, is it just me, or is something wrong with this thread? It keeps looking like this for me in IE8 and Opera:

Preseason rankings mean nothing. I expect Mr. Martin to be top-5 in the rankings that count: post-season.

Honestly didn't think he would be this good, but glad he is!
