About Those 7th Round Wide Receivers

The Green Bay Post Gazette has a good web article about the Packers two 7th round draft choices, Charles Johnson of Grand Valley State and Kevin Dorsey of Maryland. Basically, both NFL hopefuls had a "rough" path to the Draft.

There were plenty of good reasons Charles Johnson and Kevin Dorsey were available to the Green Bay Packers in the final hour of the NFL draft this past weekend. There are also enough good reasons to think the pair of receivers the Packers took in the seventh round just might be able to make an impact.


Johnson, has taken 6 years from High School to get here. He transferred 3 times and took off a year to stay home with his ill father. He's Big (6'2" - 215 lbs) and has lightning speed running a 4:35 his pro day. Dorsey endurred a brutal Terapin senior year when ALL 4 of their starting QB's went down with injuries and finished out the season with a converted Linebacker and a converted Tight End finishing up. Because of this he only had 18 receptions his senior year but did snag 45 his junior year.
