Some "Rip Van Winkle's" of the NFL Draft

Rip Van Winkle is an over-used term for a sleeper but if someone out there in this vast world of ours can come up with another cliche for sleeper, please let me know. Here is a question that I will answer at the bottom of this article? In the movies or TV, who got to sleep faster than anyone you have even seen(answer at bottom). Here are your"Rip Van Winkle's" for this April 22-24 NFL draft: WR Marcus Easley from UConn, former walk-on had a terrific season year, is big, has good hands, and runs well. MLB Danny Batten from South Dakota State, converted DE can play MLB and is physical, DE/OLB Albert McClellan from Marshall, is a big strong powerful edge player that will hit you. DT Sean Lissemore from William and Mary, fast twitched 3 technique guy who is very disruptive in both the running and passing game. WR Blair White from Michigan State, has special hands, runs well, and is a big target. FS Quinton Scott from Northern Iowa, a 1AA athlete who is a big rangy free safety and can make plays. Rb Curtis Steele from Memphis, tad under-sized for some but a jet quick elusive tailback that looks like a mini Chris Johnson. DE Alex Carrington from Arkansas State is a big 5 technique that plays the run very well and may move in DT(3 technique). These guys are not household names but may make noise in years to come in the NFL. The Three Stooges get to sleep faster than anyone I have ever seen on any production. Curly Howard is snoring before his head hits the pillow.
