5. Rex Grossman, Florida (6-1, 217, 5.15)

 

Did not work out at the Combine, but worked out at the Florida Pro Day. Had a 27-inch vertical jump, 8-foot-5 long jump and ran the 40 on grass in 5.09 and 5.21. Played quarterback in high school and passed for 7,518 yards and 97 touchdowns. Redshirted in 1999, started seven games in 2000 and then was the full-time starter the last two years. Entered the draft with one year left at school. Has the arm strength to make all the throws and was accurate. Had to learn a new system this past year and did well. Not much of a runner, but will get some yards when he has to. Has a knack of finding passing lanes. A tough guy who will stand in the pocket. Has a lot of confidence in his ability as a player and will accept a challenge

 

 

4. Michael Haynes, Penn State (6-3 5/8, 281)

 

Had a complete workout at Combine — 30½-inch vertical jump, 9-foot-1 broad jump, 23 bench presses. He ran only one time at the Combine (4.88) and only once at his Pro Day (4.7).

Played his first three years at Balboa High in Panama. Was the goalie on the soccer team and played volleyball. In his senior year, he played fullback in New Jersey and gained over 9 yards per carry. Redshirted as a fullback at Penn State in 1998 and moved to defensive end in the spring of 1999. Started two games in 2000 and was a full-time starter the next two years.

 

Good athlete with good strength and good pass-rushing ability. Is learning to play the position and has trouble sometimes against the run. Media voted him Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year.
