Josh Buchanan has another iteration of his "Top 40 Small Schools 2010 NFL Draft List". Two UMass players are on it: Vladimir Ducasse and Jeromy Miles. He has Ducasse as a 7th round draft pick. If Ducasse were to be picked, it would the first UMass NFL draft pick since Khari Samuel in 1999 (5th round Chicago Bears, #144).
