Kill sees potential draft picks
The Gophers football team sent five players to the NFL last season, including draft picks Damien Wilson, David Cobb, Cedric Thompson and Maxx Williams. Then Cameron Botticelli was signed as a free-agent by the Chargers. It was the most players they had sent to the NFL in one season since 2006.
Now coach Jerry Kill says that this year’s squad could easily send five players to the draft, just on defense.
“On the defensive side of the ball, I really do [think we can send that many players],” he said. “I think that in our secondary, you know I think it has been pretty well noted how good those kids are. De’Vondre Campbell, if he has a good year and then if T.C. [Theiren Cockran] has a good year because of his length and speed. They have to have good years, but they have great potential to do it and I think they’ll have great years. I don’t think there’s any doubt about that with their attitude right now in the offseason and in the summertime.”
