Willie Colon has been getting quite a bit of attention this week and that's not a bad thing for the Hofstra lineman who according to this, may be the first non-NFL Combine invitee to get drafted in next week's draft...
Non-Combine Sleeper: Willie Colon, OL, Hofstra: Colon, 6-3, 320, has started each of the past three seasons for Hofstra at right tackle. Though he has earned acknowledgement throughout much of his career, Colon improved as his career went on and he was recognized as an All-Atlantic 10 first team selection, as well as a first team I-AA All-American as selected by both the Walter Camp Foundation and the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA). Colon might lack the size to play outside, but is athletic, intelligent, and hard-working. When it is all said and done Colon might end up being the first drafted among those not invited to the Combine.
