Rory Johnson, Oge Oge Receive NFL Opportunity

As mentioned earlier, some red flags had to be out there on Rory Johnson for this immense talent to fall from a projected 3rd round pick to out of the draft. A Wisconsin newspaper is reporting that two positive tests for marijuana at Ole Miss and Hinds CC hurt his stock. Rory has landed a free agent contract with Green Bay. The outside linebacker from Vicksburg has a strong chance of making the club's opening day roster.

Oge Oge, the wide receiver from Southeast Missouri and a former Clinton High School star, is getting a tryout with the Detroit Lions.

UVA Defensive Tackle Keenan Carter, who declared for the draft after his junior year, will be given a chance to play for the Washington Redskins.

Jacksonville - QB Lester Ricard, Tulane.

Arizona - QB Toby Korrodi, Central Missouri State. Small-school quarterback has a huge arm but draft analysts have been knocking his mental acumen.

Chicago - QB Chris Leak, Florida. Could Kyle Orton's No.3 job in jeopardy? We hope not. Long live The Neckbeard.

Chicago - RB Darius Walker, Notre Dame. Walker will compete with 3rd round selection Garrett Wolfe for the Bears' No.3 running back job.

Pittsburgh - PR / KR Chris Jackson, Millsaps. One of the most explosive return men in SCAC history.

Houston - QB Jared Zabransky, Boise State.

• Antonio Johnson's audio transcript with the Tennessee Titans. I like this guy already. He talks about growing up in Leland, the broke-down traffic lights there, and his non-traditional route to Mississippi State and the NFL.

• Trumaine McBride talks about being drafted by the Bears.
