Proud to see 2 NCA&T Aggies on the list and 1st Team at that

[WestCoastAggie]

FAMU had 3 All-Americans. They won’t be sneaking up on anyone.

[Sader87]

Two Fordham LB's before Holy Cross' LB Jacob Dobbs is worth at least a raised eyebrow.

I want the NDSU game to happen badly. I want to see Martin and McDaniel go up against the front 7 and Radunz/Volson on the other side.

Nice to see Brandon Rainey, Willie Eubanks III, and Alex Ramsey on the list. The 'Dogs are thrusting in '20.

Our defense is going to suck this year....NDSU defense representation is nonexistent here.

Not really. Those two Fordham LB's are excellent! Both are well known commodities....

[kdinva]

Had WR Jakob Herres made his intentions known a couple of weeks ago, he may have been on this list, 3rd team maybe...

[Sader87]

Holy Cross scored 49 points in the 2nd half against that LB tandem at Fordham last year....

that literally has nothing to with individual talent. Monmouth embarrassed HC in the playoffs. Doesn't mean the HC LB can't be great too....

That's 14 too many!

Don't you mean leg humping?

McDaniel is a pretty good player but I have a feeling that no FCS DE is going to make Radunz look bad. I would expect him to hold Elerson in check unless he has improved a lot and gotten much stronger for this fall. It will be interesting to see what Martin does.

I only wore those when people didn't donate to the ride. It was a very effective fundraising technique.

If Cox would have stayed around, I would have anticipated he would have been covering Martin all game. Radunz is an absolute monster at LT and should be playing on Sundays next year. If he can add another 20lbs, that would go along way for Sunday football.

The defense will be good.

Keeping my fingers crossed, but early projections are suggesting we may only play a conference schedule.

Radunz really does not have any major weaknesses and his weight can be fixed for sure. It will be interesting to see who replaces Cox.

Nobody will replace Cox, because he could play multiple roles on the D.

[TheKingpin28]

I know it's established that Cox is a 1st-2nd round pick most likely, but the thought that NDSU could have had a potential of 3 players in the 1st 3 rounds would have been awesome.

I try to hammer this home not to be a jerk but because I want people to understand what they are seeing. Just because the media thinks it and says it does not mean the NFL teams are saying the same thing. I don't think a GM has said he could go 1-2. The NFL Advisory Board said he was a day 3 pick, which is why he stayed and I believe is why he transferred. I'm told a couple of the scouts who did the early grades for NFL scouting services put a 2nd round grade on him. He could go there but needs an All-SEC caliber year.

Your question on Radunz. I would say right now most in the NFL are likely to have him in the 4th-6th round range. I could see late 2nd or early 3rd with a good season and performance in Mobile. He will really need to stand out in the postseason. That is truly where small school players move up the board. Just look at Wentz. Most scouts saw him as a late day 3 or PFA prior to the season and a 3rd round pick with a shot at round 2 until they saw the return from injury in the title game and his week at the Senior Bowl. So any top 100 talk right now is potential because if any of these guys struggle in Mobile or at the NFL Combine they won't rise that high.

By the way, MVFC has a lot of players who are seen as potential draft picks by scouts. Illinois State has 3, UNI has 3, NDSU has Radunz, and SDSU has the WR Johnson. I don't see any of them there yet but based on the film I have seen it would not shock me if the MVFC has 2 top 100 picks among seniors. If Lance has a big year and comes out early there could be 3 from the league and 2 from the same team. That would be quite the accomplishment as you have eluded to.

[smallcollegefbfan]

Nobody will replace Cox, because he could play multiple roles on the D.

I figured it may take a couple of guys to fill the void. I guess I'm saying from a talent standpoint. Does NDSU have another with similar talent or will there be a big drop off on that side is what I'm asking?

Not sure what that means but we'll take our orders from the UNC Board of Governors and the MEAC. So far both have mentioned the possibility of a reduced season.

Our president has said he wants to play the entire schedule adjusting home games to 25% seating capacity. Like many others It's a waiting game at this point.

[BigGrizz]

Nice looking group of players being selected to Preseason Team. A healthy Samuel Akem might be the best reciever at this level and didn't even get mentioned? Going to be a fun year if they get to play.

That's 14 too many!I know, that would be completely unacceptable
