CB Aaron Colvin, Oklahoma -- A potential second-day pick now becomes a threat to drop into UDFA after Aaron Colvin tore his ACL at a Senior Bowl practice. It goes without saying that this is extremely unfortunate for Colvin, but can be turned into a positive for a team that needs longterm reinforcements at CB. If Colvin goes anywhere, he's going to go into the IR cave, making his actual rookie year 2015. So good news: if your team wants a potential starter-caliber corner, you can scoop him up in the late rounds or UDFA. And that's what Colvin is: he's a player that's dramatically undersized at less than 180 lbs, but he's a scrapper with good speed that's played a ton of pro-style off man coverage. Colvin is also an excellent tackler and plays very hard, but his lean physique will mean he'll need a year to get used to his new playing weight. My guess is, he ends up as a UDFA and spends 2014 on IR before having to fight through special teams to get on a roster in 2015.
