Late RD Sleepers? - Page 5

Couch-Potato · 11:38 AM

Anyone have some exciting late round sleepers they want to share with us?

Here's a couple I'll submit to get the thread rolling:

Danny Gray, WR, SMU (6'1, 182 lbs) - [49/803/9/16.4]
https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Danny-Gray-WR-SMU

Scouts Notes:
-Elite Speed & Cutting Ability
-Explosive Burst
-Elite Balance

Projected 7th Rd @ PFF

Calvin Austin III, WR, Memphis (5'9, 173 lbs) - [74/1,149/8/15.5]
https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/...III-WR-Memphis

Scouts Notes:
-4.2 Olympic Track Star Speed, Fastest Player in Draft/NFL
-Well disciplined slot receiver, almost impossible to cover
-Amazing Quickness
-Smallest Player in the Draft

Projected 7th Rd @ PFF

Zyon McCollum is 6'4" 200 lbs and ran a 4.33 at the combine. How's that for a corner with length?

I'll bet that'd put a smile on Spags' face.

Not a late-round guy, probably a 4th type though, that I've come around to like quite a bit is Dominique Robinson from Miami of Ohio.

Has a profile similar to Danielle Hunter but not quite as good of a 10-yard burst. Lance Zierlein compared him to Whitney Mercilus.

6'5" 253, 4.72 40, 41" vertical, 10'1" broad, 25 bench, 33.25" arms.

A recent convert from WR to DE so he has alot of growth ahead. I think he could be a big-time sleeper type.

Also, I think Quay Holmes is a guy to watch at RB. May or may not get drafted but saw a comp to James Robinson. He was ultra-productive at East Tennessee State.

I can’t remember a draft with this many late round picks to be excited about. Have I been asleep or am I right?

I love this group a ton and would be ecstatic if we snagged any of them late in the draft or signed a couple as UDFA's, especially Ross and Dixon .

I'm adding Dion Novil, DT North Texas to this group.

Adding Kyron Johnson, EDGE/LB Kansas

Adding Neil Farrell Jr., DT LSU to this crew.

**SAGA45** · 03-21-2022, 05:06 PM

Adding Florida A&M safety Marquese Bell to the group above. Will likely be my last lol! Really liking this collection of talent.

James Houston IV def stole the show today. Numbers below. Also had an eye-opening 83” wingspan. Hybrid LB who can really rush the passer (16.5 sacks), good technique/hand use, plays special teams. Scouts were buzzing about him. Type of player worth taking a shot on developing. https://t.co/qsVYz8Zmmc

#JacksonState #IBelieve Found some pro day results for JSU DE/LB James Houston IV.... Houston ran a 4.6 second 40-yard dash, posted a 39" vertical, & 10.6 foot broad jump. Couldn't find his size but Houston is a force off the edge. Relentless player who had 16 sacks this season.

The Chiefs were reportedly one of 22 NFL teams in attendance...

Am I missing something? I see in his stats only 4.5 sacks this last season?

You looked at his "season highs". He had 4.5 sacks in a single game against Tennesee State.

Chris Meck · 03-22-2022, 04:31 PM

Isiah Weston, a 6'3", 219 lb. WR with a 9.99 RAS score.

kccrow · 03-23-2022, 05:43 PM

Going to put another up here... Tyrese Dedmon, S, Idaho

Dante84 · 03-23-2022, 11:25 PM

Danny Gray looks like Antonio Brown in this video. Jesus.

This guy is interesting, developmental type. He flashed at the senior bowl occasionally. You could see some burst but he’s obviously still learning.

Went to check on Pierre Strong's Pro Day and stumbled on this kid:

When your vert elicits shrieks, I think you tested pretty well.

South Dakota State S Michael Griffin II's pro day results:

6-0, 213 pounds
43.5-inch vertical leap
11-5 broad jump
4.47-4.52 40
6.82 3-cone
4.15 short shuttle https://t.co/8KQHStdaxZ

His RAS is 9.8 as a free safety...9.89 as a strong.
