A Serious Character Pick

I blogged about this guy last fall, when he surprised the ACC and had an outstanding year as an RB for UVA. As you'll note from the comment board to this blog, some of you had great things to say about this player.

And now he's a "sleeper" pick in the NFL draft (scroll down on the Fox link to Richard Ciriminello's portion).

He was a career back-up, who, when given the opportunity, absolutely shined in Charlottesville and on the road. When called upon, he was ready.

He's a "do it all" back who can run back kicks, catch the ball and run it well. The type of player who would do anything to help the team.

Look for him on the second day.

His name: Alvin Pearman, Jr.
