Many of you college football fans and amateur draftniks are probably familiar with the story of Wisconsin defensive end J.J. Watt.

Watt is expected to be drafted in the first round, likely in the top-20 picks as a 3-4 defensive end.
Florio likened Watt’s story to Rudy Ruettiger’s story at Notre Dame. If Rudy was twice as big and ten times as talented.
