I can confidently say that as of right now two things have happened: No JMU players were drafted or signed (yet) and the Eagles have had one of the best offseasons/drafts in recent history that I can think of. They drafted or acquired everything they needed including two seasoned NFL players who have already proven themselves.
Top Acquisitions:
LT - Jason Peters (Bills)
WR- Jeremy Maclin (Missouri)
RB - LeSean McCoy (Pitt)
CB -Ellis Hobbs (Pats)
TE -Corneilius Ingram (Florida)
If this doesn't make McNabb happy I don't know what will.
UGA had 6 players drafted, 3 on the first day... I'm sure you guys noticed where the top two dawgs went... Browns picked up Mohammed Massaquoi in the second round, he should be a solid receiver but don't know if he will pan out to be a top NFL receiver.
How'd your team/school do in the Draft?

Colt Anderson, the 194-pound safety out of Butte, signed a three-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings not long after "Mr. Irrelevant," South Carolina kicker Ryan Succop, went as the 256th and final pick to Kansas City.
Colin Dow, a 305-pound guard from Billings, got a two-year deal from Cincinnati.
Three other Grizzlies were still waiting for opportunities Sunday night. Brent Russum, a Lewistown, Idaho, product who started 31 games at right tackle for the Griz, had been in contact with three teams, and hoped to have something in writing on Monday.
Quarterback Cole Bergquist spoke to a couple NFL teams only to see them both draft QBs. The San Clemente, Calif., native has a contract offer from the CFL's British Columbia Lions, who recently signed former Montana State QB Travis Lulay.
Guard J.D. Quinn, of Garland, Texas, hadn't reported a free agent deal as of Sunday night.

CB Evan McCullough has signed a two year deal with the Tampa Bay Bucs... Flanders... er, I mean Landers agent is still in talks with the Bucs and says things seem optimistic. Landers tried out for the team during rookie camp as QB, a mistake for him I think... not really a pro style QB but with his speed could be productive in numerous other positions on the field.

Landers mentioned he wants to work out a deal with Tampa first, but if nothing comes of it, he plans on going to the New York Giants training camp where they want to try him out as a RB or HB.

JMU DE J.D. Skolnitsky has been offered a contract by the Washington Redskins... for those who remember, Skolnitsky announced a press conference early this year that he would be forgoing his senior year at JMU to enter the NFL draft, because he had been suspended by the NCAA for taking an OTC substance banned by the NCAA. Good for him, glad things seem to have worked out so far.
