Biography:
How Acquired: Signed as an undrafted rookie free agent following the 2008 NFL Draft.

Predraft Analysis: Twin brother of Michael Griffin, a first-round pick by Tennessee last year. Productive player who recorded 99 tackles, 10 PBU and five interceptions as a senior. Hard worker and standout on special teams who struggles in man coverage, where he lacks footspeed. Only ran a 4.77 at the Combine but came back to run a 4.51 in individual workouts. Still, he will have to stand out on special teams to have a chance.
