Clemson draft roundup
Both Scout and the State have informational summaries of how the Clemson contingent did in this year’s draft.
Gaines, as you already know, was the 4th pick overall and is heading to Tampa Bay.
From Scout:
*Anthony Waters was taken with the 96th pick of the 2007 draft by the San Diego Chargers.
*Dustin Fry was Clemson’s third player chosen in the draft as he was a fifth-round pick of the St. Louis Rams.
*C.J. Gaddis… was a fifth-round selection of the Philadelphia Eagles.
From the State:
Chansi Stuckey… was finally taken with 25th pick of the seventh and final round, No. 235 overall, by the New York Jets.
At least four undrafted Clemson players agreed to terms on free-agent deals Sunday night: offensive guard Nathan Bennett (Carolina), tailback Reggie Merriweather (San Diego), cornerback Duane Coleman (Buffalo) and right tackle Marion Dukes (Miami).
Quarterback Will Proctor expected to choose between three candidates by today, while seldom-used cornerback Sergio Gilliam is believed to be considering an offer from San Diego.
It’s going to be hard not to root for the Chargers this year. I followed them some last year because of Whitehurst. The additions of Waters and Merriweather will add some spice.
On a final note, Will Proctor… NFL…
I agree, looks like the San Diego Tigers errr Clemson Chargers will be gaining a following from the east coast.
