Projected Round (2010): 1-2.

Height: 6-1. Weight: 240.
Projected 40 Time: 4.56.
Projected Round (2010): 2-4.
11/7/09: A powerful runner having a great year, Anthony Dixon has rushed for 1,001 yards and nine touchdowns in eight games. He can also catch the ball out of the backfield.
2/6/09: Anthony Dixon compiled 869 yards and seven touchdowns as a junior. He also registered 20 catches for 117 yards and two more scores.
7/25/08: Anthony Dixon is a huge power back who moves pretty well at his impressive size. He rushed for 1,066 yards and 14 touchdowns (3.7 YPC) and also caught 14 passes out of the backfield. As long as he's not super slow at the combine, he'll be a mid-round pick.

Projected 40 Time: 5.24.
Projected Round (2009): 4-5.

3/14/09: Aaron Pettrey headlines this weak kicking class; he was just 7-of-8 in 2008, but connected on 6-of-7 tries from beyond 40 yards. He hit two 50-yarders, including one from 54.

Height: 6-5. Weight: 302.
Projected 40 Time: 5.31.
Projected Round (2009): 6-7.
7/28/08: Another Joe Thomas, but it's safe to say this one won't be as good as the one who came out of Wisconsin. Thomas started seven games at guard for Pittsburgh as a sophomore. Also played right tackle.
