was B.J. Raji any good before last year?

I see where he may be a top 5 pick, possibly. Talk about coming out of nowhere.

Look at him, coming out of high school:

63 tackles (16.5 for losses), 3.5 sacks and 4 pass breakups, according to his official bio.

BC will have all kinds of trouble replacing Raji and Ron Brace, both senior DTs who were about 330 pounds.

And part of his trick was he was showing some promise in 2005/2006, not a ton, but some, after redshirting in 2004. Then he was out all of 2007 but his bowl game vs. MSU, which he didn't produce in.

Then he sort of blew up last year.

He looks all kinds of pissed off in that picture.

He missed 2007, but was very good in '06

I had to look him up...
