NFL prospects often have unrealistic expectations of where they’ll be drafted. But quarterback Andre Woodson, whom the Giants selected out of Kentucky in the sixth round, might have had the least realistic assessment of his own draft position of any player chosen this year.

Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News reports that Woodson was off by four rounds: He thought he was going to be a second-round pick. And he still can’t understand what happened to make him fall all the way to the latter portion of the second day of the draft.

“I really don’t know,” Woodson said. “I think a lot of people still to this day don’t really know why I dropped as much as I did.”

Woodson doesn’t say exactly why he thought he was a second-round pick, but his biggest problem may have been listening to media assessments during his senior year in Kentucky, when some of the alleged draft experts had Woodson pegged not just as a first-day pick but potentially as the first overall pick in the draft.

The lesson Woodson learned is one that a lot of college football players should learn: Just because Mel Kiper says you’re a first-round pick in October doesn’t mean Roger Goodell will call your name in the first round in April.
