Questions about Sproles... I checked out his sight and took a look at his highlight film. All I can say is "wow". I'm not familiar with him at all and I'd be all for drafting him next year... But, 5"7'??? That's VERY small... Would he be able to take the punishment in the NFL?? Even Barry Sanders was an inch or two taller than that (And I did see some B. Sanders type moves in Sproles highlights!).SECTION 11 said:
The kid's got game... I'd just be a little nervouse about his size. But I'll definitely be checking out some K State games on tv this year to check him out.

No he wouldnt be able to take the punishment at that size. There is a reason the NFL doesnt make guys like this feature backs.

You mean guys like Barry Sanders who was 190 lbs coming out of college.
Or
Quentin Griffin who is only is 190 lbs as well.
Sproles is much more muscular, solid, and stronger(did you see the numbers 11 put up on his weight lifting) 180lbs then both of them were or are. He has also gained weight throught his years started at 160 his freshman year, was 165 his sophmore year, was 170 his Junior year, and is now 180 this year. He is also planning on entering this years combines in the 190-195 range which is just fine for a feature back. Plus I said it once I will say it again, he can take so called punishment(which he has taken for what will be his 3rd straight year in a good big 12 confrence), but then again you cant punish what you cant catch. When the only hits you take are arm tackles and trip ups, you can last a long time in this league.
Someone already said it, but they are so correct. If Griffin succeeds this year, teams will be all over Sproles in a heart beat.
