Me too man. Back in July/Aug, he was one of the guys I posted to keep an eye on. Solid player.

Honestly man I would take a shot on him in the 4th or 5th round as a receiver. If he shows decent receiving ability he will go higher than that I would think. Especially since he seems more than willing to make the change. He clearly can do some good things with the ball in his hands. He has the size, speed and ability to make guys miss that could make him special if he can catch.

I love the kid. Good awareness, solid tackler. Has the physical and mental tools to be solid to very good pro IMO

David Bakhtiari, the LT out of Colorado is declaring.
He is on the small side...6-4 295, but has pretty good feet. Could be a mid round guy.
Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
DeAndre Hopkins the big time WR out of Clemson is coming out too.

I'm not surprised he declared. His stock is pretty high right now. If he can pull of a really good 40 time (low 4.4's) then he could easily solidify himself as one of the top receivers taken. He's a damn good player.

This guy is interesting. Not a great run blocker but very good pass blocking technique.

I am as well, left the bowl game really impressed with his toughness and vision, 2 things that will help him tremendously in the slot. Can't wait to see how his feet look and how he catches the ball.
Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Looks like Manti Te'o might be dropping in the draft. He might be there when the Ravens pick.

We have plenty of needs to address in the draft, but if "Nuk" Hopkins is still on the board, I hope we give tremendous consideration to him....flat out beast WR.
