Former Florida WR Antonio Callaway -- who some considered as talented as any WR in this draft -- tested positive for marijuana at the combine, NFL sources told ESPN.

Callaway’s new agent Malki Kawa said it was for a diluted sample. Callaway hired Kawa about two weeks ago.

Lord have mercy... Some teams were actually considering giving him a chance. This has to be it for him.

Some teams have graded him as a second-rounder, but in a draft without 32 players who have graded out as first-round picks, some second-round players will go on Thursday night. Landry is definitely in contention to be one of those players in a weak draft for pass-rushers. In speaking to sources with a number of playoff teams, Landry is definitely in contention for their first-round pick. The Patriots, Saints and Steelers all have Landry in the running to be their selection according to sources. The tape of him rushing the passer in 2016 is what is getting him consideration in the back half of the first round.

Still, sources from teams that like Landry and have him in the running have concerns about him being a bust. "There's a big hole with Landry and just a minimal track record of successful NFL rushers at his size with his athletic profile, but he's got some d*** good tape," said one top evaluator at a playoff team.

Landry at 27? ... nice.

Landry is a sub-package pass rusher. Go back and watch the games where he actually faced some legit competition. He lacks the sand to set the edge in the run game. He has one basic rush move and against NFL tackles, they will bury him in the dirt. Injury prone, he's a little healthier than Hau'oli Kikaha which is very much the same player...

Matt Miller
@nfldraftscout
Derwin James top 10. Frank Ragnow Round 1. Maurice Hurst day 3. That's all the latest buzz from the draft world.

And to add my own take to it... Derwin James goes 7th to Tampa and Frank Ragnow goes 21st to Cincinnati.
