I know it's a little early in the season but is there any player in college football that has really stood out to you as being much better than expected?
For me, it has to be Texas senior RB Selvin Young. He's struggled with injuries through his career and while he was never a terrible back, he never really wowed you either. Gbnreport.com ranked him at #32 among RBs for this draft before the season started.
He has been incredible so far. He's dropped about 15 lbs. and more than once I've said to myself "Nice run Jammal," (Sophmore speedster Jammal Charles) only to see it was Young instead. He is so much quicker this season it's scary. He's a completely different player.
I'm not saying he's going to be a 1st rounder or anything but if he stays healthy and continues to play the way he has, he may have gone from undrafted free agent to Day 1 pick.
