Al Woods, DT for Jacksonville.

Keiland Williams
Charles Scott
Terrance Tolliver
Lafell
Doucet
Perilloux
Stevan Ridley
Ron Brooks
Dorsey
Nevis
Tyson Jackson
Perry Riley

None of them

That was 13 years ago. Kind of a long time to expect a large number of players to still be on an active roster

Well, it was over a decade ago. Relatively few players remain the League 10-12 years.

none of the players who were even freshman on the team are on a roster. Surprising, figured at least some of the linemen would have hung around.

Dorsey would have been without Auburn cheap shotting him... Barring any major issue afterwards.

A freshmen on that team would be 31-32

Andrew Whitworth still playing from 2003 team. Pretty damn impressive.

Lafell had a pretty good run. Did he get a ring or 2 with the Pats?

1)that team is very old in nfl terms, as far as players being on rosters.

2) That 2007 team was also Les’ 4th or 5th best team in terms of pure nfl talent. 05, 06, 11,12,13 were all arguably as good or better.

07 just had the most luck

When I was a teenager I thought Early Doucet would be in the league for 10+ years

Kyle Williams and Donnie Jones have been in the league within the last couple of years. And Whitworth just signed a 3 year contract.
