i'm really surprised Ryan Broyles isnt getting more love. I know he got hurt but i thought he was a really good reciever. When he got hurt OU's offense turned to shite.



Even before the injury his speed was questionable.

he is from some. I've seen some say he will go in the 3rd. It's a tough year to get noticed as a WR, especially coming off a torn ACL.

i think when you have a deep WR class like this a lot of teams think they can get a comparable talent in the second or third round. sometimes that causes the guys at the top to fall a little bit.


i just saw Alshon was ranked as the 3rd best NFL WR prospect on ESPN. I thought most people had Reuban over Alshon. But I think there are good arguments on both sides.

where in the world did you see that?

Alshon is way down there.

Most seem to have:

1. Blackmon

2. Floyd

3. Randle

4. Wright

5. Hill

6. Jeffery

Hard to argue with production, but it is the Big 12. Wonder what kind of numbers he puts up in the SEC. Same goes for Kendall Wright.

Randle is way better than Wright (ran slow at combine) and Hill ( Cant catch a cold) and it would be a shame if they are picked ahead of him

Randle would be a perfect fit for the Texans and they would be dumb to pass on him even though it might be a little early for him

I believe you all are overlooking a certain QB named Jordan Jefferson.

Brandon Taylor 2 Solid, big hitting safety
Ron Brooks 2-3 Fast, very underrated CB steal

Brandon Taylor will be a 6-7 round/UDFA type guy. No way in hell he goes in the 2nd. Brooks will be a 4-6 round guy, but I agree he should be a steal. Fastest CB in the draft and did nothing but produce every time he got in the game. Wasn't his fault he played behind nothing but AAs his entire career.

quote:

Deangelo Peterson 6 5* TE, underutilized, big body

absolutely not. he's not a big body for a TE. He's just an over-sized WR that wasn't underutilized, he just never played up to his athleticism. He couldn't block, so he couldn't play. NFL teams aren't going to draft someone that can't block. He had plenty of chances and showed promise early on but never lived up to it. He's got good hands, but he received bad overall grades from everyone at the senior all star games. Someone might take a flyer on him in the 7th, but I doubt it

I hope Randle drops down and gets drafted by a good team and not left out to die in kansas City like Bowe. Look at how much it's done for Mike Wallace. Was pretty average in college, drafted in the late 3rd round, and now he's a pro bowler playing on one of the best teams in the league year in and year out.

If someone reaches at the end of the 1st round= good situation for him

Someone picks him up in the early second = probably a bad situation (Browns, Seahawks etc)

Like most Tiger Fans I really believe Randle screwed himself by leaving this year

Brandon Taylor is more in the 4-6 round range in the draft. He doesn't fit the normal mold of a SS or FS more of a cross between the 2.

Randle is a late 1st early 2nd, I think he has the ability to be a number one WR in the NFL, just hasn't had the production to match.

I don't think Peterson is going to be drafted, and its hard to slot Brooks because his measurables are so good anywhere from early 3 to 5 is possible.

I would love to see Reuben go to Seattle and play with Flynn. He would be #2 to Sidney Rice and would get the #2 DB so he would get some serious looks.

maybe Kendrick Adams.


I have a feeling he will be a steal for some team late in the draft/free agency
