Ex-Buckeyes Find Home In NFL

Ready to go
When all of the undrafted free agents saw that the lockout was lifted, their agents quickly moved to action, and just about a day later they had homes. Some big names like Dane Sanzenbacher and Justin Boren were quickly taken off the free agent list. Now we get to see how they turn out in the NFL. So let's take a look at who was drafted and where they ended up.

- Dane Sanzenbacher, Chicago Bears
- Devon Torrence, Minnesota Vikings
- Brandon Saine, Green Bay Packers
- Dexter Larimore, New Orleans Saints
- Justin Boren, Baltimore Ravens
- Bryant Browning, St. Louis Rams

I really wanted Sanzenbacher for the Bengals, but it's a smart move for him to go to Chicago, because he'll get a lot of playing time with the thin lines of the Bears receiving core. I'm really interested to see if he can have a break out year in the next couple of years. I think it's interesting that the Packers signed Brandon Saine, and I have to think he will some sort of a returner, but I don't see him in a running back role in the NFL. Justin Boren is going to be a fantastic lineman for the Ravens, and could fit in nicely with the running game-style of play. I really think these group of guys will do well in the NFL, and we can't wait to see them on Sundays.
