Durell Mapp eyes NFL Draft

Posted Apr 26, 2008

Durell Mapp has taken the underdog role before and done just fine. That could be the case again this weekend for the former Cummings High School football standout. Mapp, a linebacker, is a candidate to be selected in the NFL Draft after a strong finish to a four-year career at North Carolina. He arrived in Chapel Hill as a walk-on and left with some of the team's top awards as a senior. (Burlington Times News)
