Good luck to the 2 Aussie boys in the 2013 NFL draft tomorrow.

Let's hope Brad Wing (LSU) and Jesse Williams (Alabama) get drafted.

Gee, Williams has slid. Was talked about as being a possible 1st rounder. So far there have been 5 players drafted with the surname Williams, and Jesse ain't one of them.

They doubt us Aussies. The highest hope is to only find a punter through us due to our kicking skills with drop punts.

There's still a chance for Jesse Williams to get picked up in the last 3 rounds, and I doubt Wing will interest anyone due to some off-field issues and egotistic attitude he's built in himself while at LSU.
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

Williams will get picked for sure, too much talent not to get drafted.

Apparently he has fallen down the charts due to some concerns about his knees?

Yeah it's a concern. He has amazing speed for a bloke his size.

Jesse Williams drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in Round 5 Pick 137
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

Is this the kid that was a Rugby League player.

If so good on him great result.

Huge cash for him in the NFL as opposed to League.

Good luck to the kid will keep an eye out for him.

The NFL pathway is becoming more attractive for Aussie Rules and League players for sure.

I still cant find a side to align myself with, but i am enjoying getting into the NFL never thought i would but im a fan now.

Great to hear. Geez what a time to grab a spot in an up & comer team like the Seahawks. I just read that even the Pats, Packers, 49ers and Ravens had him in their sights.....imagine that from those 4 big teams.

Yep that's him craigo. He's a Torres Strait Islander and has the Dusty build and looks, with the tatoos and is smart. Let's hope we see more Seattle games this season.

First indigenous Aussie to play NFL.

Good stuff! Picked up as a free agent. Probably won't get enough money as he would like but still.....he's in the NFL and that's a dream come true.

Well done to the Wingman.

Yep, and he's got a big kick just like Griffo.

Just read that Sav Rocca might've influenced the Eagles to give Wing a go. Well done Sav.

is there any articles you can link about wing getting picked up
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

Geez....Tim Tebow is becoming the Dale Kickett of the NFL. Just signed a 2 year contract with the Pats!!!

3 clubs in 3 years.

Coach reckons he'd be more useful than just a back-up QB to help Brady.....hmm....this will be interesting.
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

Wonder where Tebow will be next year.

Geez i woulda thought he mightve got a starting QB spot at one of the chopping block sides.

Gonna be another long season on the bench for Timmy T

Bench warmer that's it.
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

Do you reckon he will survive pre season Jukesy to even be a bench warmer, im sure the Pats wouldnt have taken if if they didnt have somthing in mind for him, i not familiar enough yet with the intricacies of NFL im just really getting to understand it now could he pinch in another position.
 
Re: NFL 2013/14

Great start to the 2013/14 season with the Cravens getting whacked by Denver. Watch out for those Broncos. Ol' Peyton still going strong.
 
Re: NFL 2012-13

They're going to be hard to stop this year for sure, so many offensive threats.
Peyton Manning wow, 37 years old and better than ever. I bet Richo would've loved some delivery like that!
