Book on DT Gerard Warren

Here's a rundown of what I've had to say about Florida DT GERARD WARREN since the beginning of the college-football season.

March 21
His recent workout was good, not great, with Warren running in the 5.09 range at 320 pounds. Warren maintained his position at the top part of the draft board, still figuring to prove difficult to pass up for the Arizona Cardinals, who are in desperate need of help at the DT spot.

Feb. 28
With his individual workout set for March 14 at Gainesville, all the talk right now centers around the possibility of Warren becoming the second overall pick to the Arizona Cardinals. I've also heard that the Seattle Seahawks, who are in desperate need of a big time DT, may have an interest in dealing up to acquire Warren's services.

Feb. 7
Figures to carry a final grade similar to that of Corey Simon, who ended up going sixth overall to the Eagles last year.

Jan. 12
A big kid with quickness similar to Corey Simon. He was the Gators' best defensive player. He's a player with the potential to be a pocket-collapser. The NFL brass love his upside.
