Kiper loves area college players
The “Hairdo” is impressed with Miami Valley high school football.
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. — famous for his helmet-hard ‘do — lists his top five senior and junior college football players/NFL prospects at various positions.
Some highlights:
Among senior tailbacks, Kiper has Michigan State’s Javon Ringer (Chaminade-Julienne) at No. 1. Among senior fullbacks is Louisville’s Brock Bolen (Valley View) at No. 3.
In the senior outside linebacker category, Kiper lists Ohio State’s Marcus Freeman (Wayne) at No. 3. At senior cornerback, Cincinnati’s Mike Mickens (Wayne) is No. 4.
Finally, among junior safeties, Kiper lists Wisconsin’s Shane Carter (Troy) at No. 5.
I’m not sure what the record is for area players drafted in a year by the NFL, but I’m guessing the 2009 class will break it.
