Kawaan Short, to no one's surprise, was drafted. He went to the Carolina Panthers in the second round with the 44th overall pick. Short will have a chance to further shore up a Carolina defense that was actually in the top half of the league in total, pass and rush defense. Along with having Cam Newton there, not a bad place to be for KK.
Josh Johnson signed a free agent deal with the San Diego Chargers and will now begin the uphill climb to make the team as an undrafted rookie.
Akeem Shavers and BS favorite Robert "Marve-lous" Marve both signed on with the Tampa Bay Bucs. The Bucs QB situation featured Josh Freeman as the starter, the legendary Dan Orlovsky as his backup, as well as Mike Glennon (NC State) and Adam Weber (formerly of Minnesota) on the roster. Beating out entrenched guys is never easy, but Marve's drive and leadership abilities might make it possible for him to crack the practice squad or third string position.

Good luck to all. Now let's not talk about the draft until next April.

But he'll give an exclusive interview to WLFI in six months.
Is Marve still playing with a torn ligament? Is he planning have it repaired?
There is actually a Boiler connection to Leon Sandcastle. The guy holding the clipboard in the stands in the Super Bowl commercial is a Boilermaker. I shared a frat house with him for 3 years.
