Joining Georgia CB paul Oliver and Nebraska OT Chris Patrick on the list are 320-pound Morgan State DT Robert Armstrong and Texas State LB mark Washington. We will have full draft reports on all the supp draft applicants next week.

Doesn't phase me much. I'd still throw a 3rd out there and see if we could get him.

If anything, it helps our chances. |

I think this is great news. We know this kid has raw athletic ability and we know he knows how to cover. All a bad workout did was push his draft stock down so that we can get him with a 5th instead of a 2nd. I've come to the point where I think Payton can get the best out of any player and if he can't then he cuts him and we lose a fifth next year. Not too much of a risk.

Hell with your analysis... I have great raw athletic ability. We knew he couldn't run before the work out nothing has changed and we might as well hold on to our draft pics for next year, we'll have weakness exposed this year and some players gone that will need to be addressed.

I'd take what he has done ON THE FIELD(which had him rated as one of, if not the top corner in next year's draft going into the season) as opposed to what happened in a rushed workout before the supplemental draft, but that's just me.
