Young Listed on NFL Draft Sites

As reported by D3football.com in their 2006 Year in Review Part 2, the Eagles' running back Winston Young is listed on ESPN.com as one of only eight Division III players as prospects for the 2007 NFL draft. They list Young's 40 time as a 4.7.

He was also listed on NFLDraftScout.com, a source used by USA Today.

Young finished his career with 246 points ranking him second, while his 2,775 rushing yards places him sixth all-time.

He is the third Bridgewater running back to get NFL looks in the last six years. Davon Cruz (2002) and Marcus Washington (2006) were also prospects. Each back holds a significant school record. Cruz is the all-time leading rusher with 3,986 yards, Washington scored the most career points with 268, while Young set a new program record this past fall with his 35th career rushing touchdown.

Bridgewater also had linebacker Jermaine Taylor make two NFL rosters - Green Bay and Tampa Bay - in 2005 and 2006.

The NFL draft will be held on April 28 and 29.
