There were a few early whispers that Ball might
sneak into the end of the first round. Alabama's Ed-
die Lacy is now getting that attention, while Ball
has been targeted as a second- or third-round pick.
"If I did go in the first, it would be great,'' Ball
said. "But if I don't, I won't be disappointed. I'll just
be very excited on waiting for the next day (Friday).
I have my mind set on where I think I'm going.''
Ball will definitely bring some impressive numbers to the team that drafts him. During his UW career (49 games), he had 924 rushes for 5,140 yards.
He also caught 59 passes for 598 yards.
