    That would be nice. Someone has to slip; everybody can't be in the first 63 picks.

    Kenyan Drake is an athlete! That kid can slash, but I'm not sure if he can stay healthy with his running style. He might be worth a late round flyer as a third down rb, though. I wouldn't be surprised if someone falls in love with his possibilities and takes him early in the third round. I actually really like him if he's around in round 4 or later. Immense talent, no durability.

    I guess I am intrigued by Sua Cravens in the 2nd, Could he add weight to be an OLB and be effective?

    I am not sure I have any secret prospects, I think by now everyone know my feelings on Harlan Miller......:bowdown: lol.

    Some other guys I like are:

    Tyler Matakevich, Scooby Wright III & Josh Forrest @ ILB

    Really like Geronimo Allison at WR

    At OLB I like Victor Ochi

    sparingly this year, like most rookies, but to help guard against an AB holdout next year, a bryant F-up again, a wheaton free agency next year and a DHB getting another year older. oh and if coates doesn't wow them as most think he will. ben will miss that deep threat that bryant was this year, as will AB, since bryant will not be taking away near the coverage that teams had to start giving him. :cool:

    By the way, Corey Coleman is the best wide receiver in this draft. Superstar to be.

    I've got him 4th behind Treadwell, Fuller and Doctson.

    I'm actually stunned how far I've seen Treadwell slip in mocks lately. Just because of a slow 40 time. I still have him as a Top 10 talent.

    I think he could walk into our offense and score 8 TDs this year. You know the thought will go through Colbert's head if Treadwell slips into the 20s. Colbert knows his WR situation is very turbulent. Ultimately I don't think it happens but it's a realistic possibility.

    Yep. Huey was definitely a bust. As well as Troy Edwards. We've had a few horrible misses.

    I remember Aaron more than Huey because of how quickly we launched Huey. I don't even remember the guy playing on our team.

    I think Will Fuller reminds me way too much of Mike Wallace. I like Doctson, and I am iffy on Treadwell for his lack of speed. I think he wins 50/50 balls because of physicality but he is not fast enough for our offense, which features receivers who all boast sub-4.48 speeds.

    That's precisely why I want Treadwell, because he is the opposite of everybody we have.

    Who is going to replace the TDs by Bryant and Heath? I think you are fooling your self if you think it's DHB. I doubt Coates would get more than 4 or 5. I am quite nervous about our WR situation.

    Haley has a man crush on one of those WRs, was it Coleman or Treadwell?

    Coates and Green will take up the slack and the offense will be fine.

    Austin Johnson , Penn St.

    I think he could play inside or outside and be a great addition to the DL rotation.

    i wouldn't count out guys like brown from ohio st. or listenbee, or garrett or peake or core or louis as wr possibilities. i'm with steel that i'm a bit nervous about the wr spot for us. one injury and we are quite average. :cool:

    The only WR I'm interested in is Max McCaffrey out of Duke in the 7th. 6'3" and ran a 4.37 at his pro day. NFL bloodlines never hurt.

    I'd love Sterling Shepard in the 2nd or Mike Thomas (Southern Miss) in the 3rd or 4th, wherever they have him graded.

    I'll trust your evaluations on offensive skill players. I didn't watch any tape or read up on any offensive players at all this year, lol. I want to see 6 defensive players and an OL when the smoke clears Saturday.
