Pros: I believe by the time the 2007 college season is over, that Cliff Avril will be ranked in top 32 players going into the 2008 NFL draft.
Cons: The kid is a great athelete in the making. Super fast,smart, very quick feet and a very strong athelete.
He is a DE/OLB very valuable. The kid play defensive end for only 10 games and is already one of the top DE going into 2007 college football season.He is a fast learner, he will get better. He is purdue's best defensive player.
Overall: Late first round early second round no later than mid second round.
