Let's see who Mr. Irrelevant is...
Hoping it's Graham Harrell, he should've won the Heisman.

It's Ryan Succop, kicker from U of South Carolina.

has there ever been a Mr. Irrelevant that has even made an NFL team let alone make a career out of it?

From wikipedia:
"Several players who have been presented with this dubious honor have nevertheless succeeded in making the team that drafted them, with significant contributions on the field. Bill Kenney, who won the 1978 Mr. Irrelevant award under special circumstances (see below), was even honored with an invitation to the Pro Bowl in 1983. Special-teams player Marty Moore became the first Mr. Irrelevant to play in a Super Bowl, with the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXI. Jim Finn was the starting fullback for the New York Giants. Mike Green has been a starting safety for the Bears and Seahawks, and is currently a backup for the Redskins.

One "Mr. Irrelevant" (who actually predated the award by nearly a decade) went on to a productive professional career in another sport. Jimmy Walker was the final pick in 1967 despite never having played college football. His main sport, however, was basketball, in which he was a consensus All-American and the nation's leading scorer as a senior at Providence. Walker was the first overall pick in the 1967 NBA Draft, and logically opted for a career in the NBA."

And by the way, is name is pronounced suck-up Ryan Suck-up.

Didn't the Patroits have something like 12 picks...I thought the most anyone team can have at once are 10 in that years draft?

Played Madden and Head Coach and could never have more then 10. Speaking of Madden....why is it that you can never trade for p/k? Is that true in the NFL?

God, I hate that rule (in Madden, that is).
Ruins my trades :evil:

Because they're idiots, i dunno.
You can trade K/P's in the NFL.
Saints traded a 6th round pick for Olindo Mare (K) a couple years ago.

The most picks you can have in a draft in a given year is 15 I think, if it's not that, then it may be unlimited. I hate that rule in Madden.


Yes, you can trade for p/k in NFL doesn't happen often but on occasion. Another stupid Madden rule.


Tim Tebow is a senior THIS year, so if he choses he can enter the draft this year.

There is no draft limit but you really can't sign 15 rookies and who would want to(unless your an expansion)

You have limited space on your roster, so it may not be the best idea to get 200 picks in the draft, considering you have to give up players to get that and you will only sign a fraction of them.
