    Walter Football lists a projected 2-3 round pick. I could see him falling, since he doesn't fit either the mold of either a prototypical slot or outside WR, and played against poor competition. This is my hope at least, as he'd be a great guy to find in round 4 or 5.

    I can't see him being there past the 2nd. Not a great draft class for WRs this year. This guy is big, smart and can run. Good "image" guy too....will sell lots of jerseys....lol. A bigger Wes Welker.

    It ranges from 2nd to 3rd day. I wouldn't put a grade on him yet until the combine/senior bowl/etc. Need to see how he performs against better competition.

    Alright pretty sick highlights. Love how often he blitzes. Think he could fit in and play a variety of positions for us here. Nickel LB (base formation nowadays) and you can get him in on safety packages as well (or visa versa-- full time safety who can also play LB on packages). Makes plays all over the field.

    Not a ton of ball skills though from what I've seen. (outside the returns lol)

    Showing hilites against Hawaii, UCF, Colorado and Rutgers doesn't give me much to evaluate. Against WI it was punt returns. Reminds me of Pacman giving that false step to right or left then heading upfield.

    Like the athleticism and tenacity. He and Byard would yield a rangy pair of safeties and compliment one another well. There are two other highly touted safeties from LSU and OSU, and I think it's a safe bet that JR picks one of these 3 in the first.

    I'd say it's more of a matter of best player available. There are 3 safeties who are top 15 in the eyes of many, so it's likely one falls to us. Probably less likely that an elite CB or pass rusher is available.
