So in other words, some people are late bloomers.
And the NFL is pretty good at giving all athletes a fair chance.

Do you consider Kent State a small school? Just looked and was shocked at the talent they've produced...James Harrison, Antonio Gates, Josh Cribbs, Julian Edelman

Mostly has to do with the time period that they played CFB in.

For the black players in the 60's - yes.
The Raiders were one of the few franchises that raided the HBCU's like drafting Eldridge Dickey (QB, Tennessee State University, 1964-1967); Willie Brown (DB, Grambling State University, 1959-1963); Raymond Chester (TE, Morgan State, 1968).
