According to ESPN analysts, out of all the running backs at the Senior Bowl this week, Lorenzo Booker helped his stock the most by displaying outstanding hands as a receiver, as well as speed and agility as an open-field runner. They are predicting Booker to be drafted late on the first day.
J.D. Drew's five-year, $70 million contract has finally become official, meaning he'll make on average $3 million per year more than the five-year, $55-million contract he opted out of with the Dodgers after last season.
That is, so long as his right shoulder, now 16 months since surgery to repair a labrum tear, holds up. The Red Sox can void the remainder of the contract in both 2009 and 2010 should Drew spend a "proscribed" length of time on the disabled list for problems with the shoulder.
The three Noles that played in the Senior Bowl on Saturday had the following stats:
Buster Davis- 5 tackles
Lorenzo Booker- 112 all purpose yards of which 109 were kickoff returns
Chris Davis- 2 catches for 15 yards
