Just a question, after reading the list, is Cam Wynn in another years class? Or just not listed. I would guess that he isn't a senior, since I figured he would be mentioned otherwise.

Yes, he is in this class, I don't track guys further than their senior season. He's just ranked 56th so fell outside of the top 50 out of 104 prospects this year. 

Also, I wasn't mentioning him in the post which is why I had mentioned him in our earlier back and forth.

'Fair enough, looking forward to the draft.

I don't see an issue with that. They are from the Buffalo area, so he could easily have played for the Blue Wings Pre-NAAF. Though it would be cutting it pretty close with Le'Darius being born in 1944, assuming Alex was still in his 20s at the time, but could've been later if he was involved in the War.

That seems cool, I dont know his age, but I always envisioned Alexander Wynn as having Le'Darius in either his last year of college, or the next couple of years.

Yea the main issue with that is that Alex would've had to been with the Blue Wings when the team started playing in the NAAF in 1949 if he had Le'Darius in 1944 and the Blue Wings restarted play in 1946 post-WWII. Like he could've had a short career or gone elsewhere, ending before the NAAF formed, but I can't just retroactively add him into NAAF history since I have the full teams recorded from then. 

Fair enough, whatever you think, I'll leave that up to you. Once again, can't wait for the draft!

Im sure that the Wynn's, who if memory serves attended WNY, must be rooting for the their alma mater, considering that the Whitetails have been runners up in 1967, 1969 and 1970. Better luck next year.

Yep, the Wynns all have come from WNY, including Cam Wynn who was on the team this year. So another reason to cheer for their old school.

 That is pretty cool. I was recently thinking about the Wynn story, in the context that I think it makes sense that Alexander Wynn, the Wynn Brothers father is an ex professional football linebacker, who coached at the High School level for his sons. Obviously if you disagree with that its your call.

Can't wait for the draft, hopefully Cam can find his way to roster, be great to see him dated highly, but I'll take what I can get.
