Top 10 NFL players from MS......

[thekimmer]

This is one of those lists that is subjective and can certainly be debated. But taking it at face value it is striking that 6 of the 10 did not matriculate at any of the three "D1" programs. I suppose a significant reason for that is Mississippi's dubious past. It is unfortunate but not too surprising that our State was not represented given our rather pedestrian history but then even the buzzards put one on the list.

He grew up in Ga.

Like DD Lewis, in Tn.

Agreed- Bambi Alworth should be on there

There was a list of 'Not Born There but Played There' Neither D.D. or Ray made that list. I should have been more specific. Of course Eli made that list.
