Keep Was drafted in the 2011 NFL Draft, which should be enough to make him notable.--Giants27(T|C) 19:04, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Being drafted does not meet any inclusion criteria. Eagles 24/7 (C) 23:04, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, drafted status, much like being on an active roster and not playing, needs to be discussed further.--Giants27(T|C) 23:09, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

delete no reliable independent sources provided. No prejudice to recreate if notability is later established. If he plays, that will do it... if there's notability in his college career, that will do it... but it isn't in the article, and it isn't properly sourced.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:01, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:NSPORTS, having never played at highest level. NSPORTS does not automatically assume notability of a any player drafted, let alone a late seventh-round pick. Fails WP:GNG with lack of non-routine coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. WP:CRYSTAL would suggest not to speculate on future notability based on whether the player ever plays in the NFL.—Bagumba (talk) 07:38, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now, being drafted usually leads to playing in the NFL, or at least the practice squad. This is too soon to tell. Secret ^account 03:25, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He was drafted in the 7th (last) round, and far from guaranteed of ever playing in the NFL. —Bagumba (talk) 22:54, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and Userfy - Zero games, out. Userfy this so that the work won't be lost in a month when he sees action, if he sees action. Carrite (talk) 02:27, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
