And exactly what makes you think that they could be in the NFL?

Short, quick, strong, athletic...traits of a RB. I'm talking about Nate Robinson that is. I think LeBron would be a ridiculous WR. It reallywouldn't be fair.
I'm convinced that Dwight Howard would probably kill someone. I think Iverson would get killed though.

Charlie Ward won the 1993 Heisman and had a chance to be Montana's understudy in the twilight of his career.

 

[kb8sandiego]

Melo?

 

[gusyouout]

matt barnes. dude was an all american before he chose basketball over football...and of course lebron cause dude is a freak of nature and he played footballbefore.

Marion would be a reciever who could jump up and catch anything, not sure about him taking hits

 

[ac4three]

Lebron James.

 

[barondavis5]

Lebron and Maggette and thats it.

And I'd like to add Delonte West, because people would be afraid to tackle him in fear of getting herpes.

Imagine how ugly his catching form would be.

nate was an ok corner problem with him was he would have been matched up against tall recievers and gotten killed.He played his freshman season at univerity ofwashington.Probably would have ended up as a punt/kickoff return specialist.Lebron played wr in highschool up to his junior year didnt he.I remember him sayinghe would have gone to florida st to play football/basketball?AI played quarterback.Ronald curry the wr for the raiders was the starting qb/pg for thetarheels.Mcnabb played pg at syracuse,obviously tony gonzales,julius peppers played for cal/unc respectively.antonio gates was a pf for his school as well.

matt barnes. dude was all american in HS and he was about to try out to be a WR for the arizona cards before warriors invited him to training camp

 

[step your game up]

Aside from the NBA players who have some history in football, Dwight Howard and LeBron at TE/WR could cause some problems.

...btw, who's the fastest man in the NBA, 40 yard wise?

 

[parasight21]

Nate Robinson played for the UW as corner...but I could see him as like kick returner. I heard that LeBron James was getting recruited by Ohio State footballteam as well. He does have a football player built. I see Dwight Howard being great TE or secondary. Cory Maggette also came to my mind just because he'sso built. I kinda wonder what kind of NFL player Charlie Ward could've been.

umm just for a thought, though...I think Shaq can be pretty good lineman and maybe Penny in his primetime could make him as really good WR.

D-Wade might be a good WR, too because he'll get all the interference calls.

Tractor Traylor

[gko2408]

I think a lot of the 6"4 - 6"7 guys have the athletic tools to play the WR spots. NateRob would win a jumpball against Moss hah.

 

[shabooyah1124]

Imagine if Manu played football. Dude would be the king of getting PI calls.

Dwight Howard - Could be a scary TE
