An inside look at the BDFL Rolling Rock Pony Draft

by Mel Kiper, Jr.

FOXBORO - Make no mistake about it, all the talk around the inaugural Pony will be the Three Musketeers (Bush, Leinart and Young) however, the true test of this innovative draft will come deeper in the round when a team will pick-up a diamond in the rough that will turn into a bona fide Big Daddy gem. Look for the names of Cutler, Maroney and Holmes to become household names in the league next year and contribute to their team's fortunes the way Cadillac, Brown and Orton did in 2005. Jay Cutler could be the next Jay Grogan without the neck and DeAngelo Williams could the next Mercury Morris without the cocaine, while Santonio Holmes very well could be the second coming of Freddie Solomon. Other players sure to make a favorable impression include Leonard Pope, Derek Hagan and Laurence Maroney. Sleepers looking to make an immediate impact include bruising runners LenDale White and Joseph Addai and the fleet receiver Chad Jackson. Long shots to make a rumble in the BDFL could be Brodie Croyle out of Alabama and linebacker-looking Darrell Hackney from UAB. Teams that scout and prepare well for "The Pony" will be the teams with the most to gain come this fall. Teams will have to speculate which NFL team players will go to and how they will fit into their plans in the fall. With this 2006 Rolling Rock Pony Draft, the BDFL continues to position itself as the premiere league it's always been since it's inception by long-time Commissioner, Iron Hand. Hand's innovative approach to football has truly kept the BDFL ages in front of other "has been" and "never was" leagues. 

  PONY PLAYER PROFILE  

Laurence Maroney is out to prove he's an all beef frank and not all baloney

FOXBORO - Coming out early for the NFL Draft was a big decision for this junior. However, it shouldn't have been. The truth is, Maroney was ready a year ago after shredding the Crimson Tide in the 2005 Music City Bowl in Nashville. Now Maroney is ready to shred NFL defenses the same way he did for Coach Glen Mason at Minnesota. Look for Maroney to go to a team in deep need for a steady ball carrier. Green Bay, Indianapolis, New York Jets and New England may be good fits.

Laurence Maroney is a powerful physical back that will pound out the yardage and wear down defenses at the next level like he did at Minnesota
