*William Sherman, Colorado, Player News

William Sherman bet on himself this winter, and it paid off. On Saturday, the former Colorado offensive lineman was selected by the New England Patriots in the sixth round of the NFL Draft. Sherman, who is 6-foot-3, 310 pounds and skipped his senior year with the Buffaloes, was selected 197th overall and was the only lineman drafted by the Patriots. Sherman is the first CU offensive lineman taken within the first six rounds since David Bakhtiari was a fourth-round choice of the Green Bay Packers in 2013 . This is the fifth consecutive season CU has had a player drafted. It's the second straight year an offensive lineman was taken after Arlington Hambright was a seventh-round choice of the Chicago Bears in 2020. A three-year starter with the Buffs, Sherm an elected to skip his senior season to enter the draft early. He is the 11th CU player to enter the draft early and all 11 have been drafted. - Daily Camera

Will Sherman checked just about every box as an accomplished Division I tackle at Colorado. In three seasons in Boulder, he made 15 starts at left tackle and 12 starts at right, anchoring the Buffs' line from both sides while earning second-team All-Pac- 12 honors in 2020. But at 6-foot-3, Sherman's lack of height has become an issue as an NFL tackle prospect. That's why he's determined to use his pro day on Monday to show scouts his versatility at guard and center. "I've put a huge emphasis in my traini ng on being able to play all five positions, so I've been snapping the ball a lot to show I can play there and just to let all 32 teams know I can play wherever they need me to play up front," Sherman said. "I really want to show them I can play on the i nterior."CU offensive line coach Mitch Rodrigue believes the Allen, Texas, native has the athleticism and intellect to make a position switch. Sherman's only played one game at guard in his career, while in high school, and none at center. "Will's best asset is his athleticism, and he's also a very intellectual player," Rodrigue said. "He works hard on studying extra film and understanding his opponent, and his natural position is going to be center or guard. He's going to excel, learn it really fast and take ownership of it. There's no doubt he can play either of those positions at the next level." - Denver Post

Looking at the list of offensive linemen at Colorado this season gets William Sherman excited. "Since I've been here in 2017, this is probably the most talented and the most depth that we've had on the O-line," said Sherman, a junior tackle. "I'm excited for guys to compete, because there's going to be a lot of competition and it's going to make us a lot better." Offensive line improvement has been an ongoing pursuit at CU for several years and Sherman will play a key role in the Buffs taking a step for ward this year.Sherman, a 6-foot-4, 310-pound junior from Allen, Texas, is one of two returning full-time starters to the line, along with left guard Kary Kutsch. Colby Pursell, who started five games at right guard, also returns. Pursell is likel y to move back to center, where he started all 12 games in 2018. Sherman has been CU's top-graded lineman each of the past two seasons - and he's done it while playing two different positions. He started nine games at left tackle as a redshirt freshman i n 2018, earning All-Pac-12 honorable mention from the coaches. - Daily Camera
