LOS ANGELES — His stock was soaring, his future stardom seemingly assured, when last October a defender rolled over Drake London's right ankle as he fell into the end zone. All of a sudden, everything was in doubt.
But nearly six months later, with the NFL draft looming, only a few of those questions linger, the most pertinent of which the receiver set out to answer Friday.
A sideline of scouts, coaches and executives from 12 NFL teams watched closely from the practice field at USC as London ran routes, caught passes and showcased footwork Friday. Many on hand represented teams with picks in the top half of the first round, where many have pegged the USC receiver to be selected.
