3.05 Houston Tethered Swimmers — WR Junior Hemingway

In the real world: Hemingway never had a 700-yard season or more than 4 TDs in a season at Michigan, but at the Combine, he had the fastest 3-cone drill time, the fastest 20yd shuttle time, and tied for the second-fastest 60yd shuttle time. The Kansas City Chiefs took him in Round 7, and at the moment, he's #5 in the pecking order (behind Bowe, Baldwin, Breaston, and fellow rookie Devon Wylie).
In the TUFF world: I would have waited until Round 4 to draft this guy. There are usually a few WRs that get drafted on the last day of the NFL Draft who don't get taken in the TUFF Draft because other teams are too busy scrambling to fill needs the other positions (example: Marques Colston, Round 7, 2006; not taken in that year's TUFF Draft, and wasn't signed until August 2006). As it happens, this year, Joe Adams, Jarius Wright, B.J. Cunningham, Keshawn Martin and Travis "Private" Benjamin did not get drafted.
