Both Nebraska offensive lineman Carl Nicks and Michigan receiver Adrian Arrington have shown signs of why many NFL scouts had them projected as high draft picks before character issues dropped them in the draft.

"Everybody is on the same playing field. That's one of the things the coaches tried to instill in our first team meeting. It doesn't matter if you're a dafted player or a signed free agent, everybody is competing for a job."
