5'10", 214?  We need another one of those RB's, most certainly.
Lundy runs with pretty good power and has decent hands too...

Yeah, he should be at least 5'11 like Shaun Alexander.

One of the few profiles I could find for Lundy. He is down towards the end on most value boards, after guys like Bell, Riggs, and some other guys I've never heard of:

Quote
Wali Lundy (Virginia - 4SR) 5'10" 214 4.61 - Career stats

2005 Honors: None

All-Star Game: Shrine Bowl. Participated in practice, but left before the game to return home to attend to personal matters.

Strengths: Multi-talented threat with a tremendous nose for the end zone (ACC all-time career TD leader with 52). Very good short-yardage runner with power for his size, vision to find the crease, and explosion to get through to the second level.
Weaknesses: Durability and fumbling. His production as a receiver has decreased each year, after an incredible 58-435-4 as a true freshman. Lacks quickness to beat defenders to the corner and straight-line speed to hit the home run if he gets in the open field.

Outlook: One of the biggest disappointments of the year, after being one of the most productive runners in the nation his first three seasons. Coming into 2005, Lundy was fifth in career rushing yards among active D-IA players. He and DonTrell Moore were the only two players in the country with three seasons of 800+ rushing yards. His 10 100-yard games were the most by any active player in the ACC. He had scored 22 TDs in his last 14 games and his 41 TDs were third among active college players. His problems actually began mid-season in 2004, when inconsistency and fumbling landed him in HC Al Groh's doghouse, allowing Alvin Pearman to break out and propel himself to being a fourth round pick. Lundy will now be lucky to go that high. However, 2005 started off well, as his problems with Groh appeared to be behind him. Groh complemented the off-season Lundy had and named him a team captain. He looked in great shape at the Spring Game, but left early after turning his ankle, and then sprained his foot in the season opener. It took him half the season to recover, and he was off the radar by then. Lacking ideal size and speed, his mysterious absence from the Shrine Game won't help stop his freefall. This looks like Walter Reyes all over again.

Seems like he'll be a late second day type, if he gets drafted at all.

7 of the top 10 leading rushers in the NFL were 5-11 or shorter last year.

I'm just saying... I think Westbrook is the finesse guy, Moats is slightly more of a straight-line speed guy, and Perry runs very tough, despite his size... so drafting another guy similar in size to those guys, no matter what his style, is kind of pointless.  Unless you think Moats and/or Perry sucks.

Pinoy,

It's 1 AM, you've been drinking.  Go to bed.  Sleep it off and you'll be fine in the morning.

Ron Bellamy, of The Register-Guard, reports Oregon QB Kellen Clemens had an individual workout with the Philadelphia Eagles.

This is the guy who I would like to see them take if Gradkowski is off the board.

215 is a lot more than the 190-200 range when you are talking about a running back.

His stock has plummeted. He was on NFL radio a month or so ago, the way the hosts were talking about him he was a lock as a top 10 pick. Now it looks as though he'll be a mid to most likely late first rounder.

ice grillin you

he will go in the first round and it will be one of the biggest mistakes his picking team could ever make

Jimmy Williams was a great college corner.

We don't need a corner, but someone is going to be very happy with him.
