2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............

When it comes to receiver, we need someone that is at least 6'2 and weights 210+.

If we don't get Treadwell(which I'm not expecting) or Thomas, then that leaves De'Runnya Wilson in the sixth round or Garrett in the third. Garrett is slow and won't be ready the first year. Cheronne Peake weighs 209 so that's workable I guess. Sharpe weighs less than 200 and Core weighs 205. Weight matters for a 6'2 player because of the possibility of injuries which usually happens to skinny players. And this player is supposed to be sharing time with Coleman which means he needs to meet that critera that Coleman has, although Coleman is 6'6.

We can't have some 6'0 or 6'1 receiver over the middle being relied on.

That would be stupid because Watkins will complain.

The veteran safety who appeared in more game (53) than any other Vol in history, showed that he’s more than just a productive college player. He has some NFL-like athletic attributes. And that was most proven in the 40-yard dash, where he ran in the 4.4 range with one report putting him right at 4.40 flat. Those times are all considered unofficial, but regardless, he ran well. He also showed that he’s one of the stronger DB prospects in his class, benching an impressive 31 reps at 225 pounds – numbers normally reserved more for linemen. Wednesday didn’t suddenly transform him into an elite prospect, but scouts will at least want to take a longer look at him now.

• DT Owen Williams: Though he didn’t have a massively productive UT career, this is the area that Williams shines. And shine he did on Wednesday, posting a whopping 42 reps on the bench press – eight more than anybody at the NFL combine recorded last month, while running well too. He had several flashes of NFL-like upside during the 2016 season and he got much better from the time he arrived on campus in 2014 to the end of his senior season. He could be a sneaky late-round pick candidate that has a ton of upside.

Holding steady:

• OL Kyler Kerbyson: Versatility is the key for Kerbyson as he looks to at least get in an NFL camp and prove that he can bring value to a team because he truly could play all five spots on the offensive line. His numbers, including 32 reps on the bench press, were solid on Wednesday. He truly played out of position the past couple years at tackle, and better projects as an interior O-lineman. If somebody gives him a chance, he can be a guy you keep on the roster or practice squad because of that ability to move around and do different things.

• WR Marquez North: He was a standout at the combine last month, and he proved it was no fluke on Wednesday, again running in the 4.4 range (this time a bit faster at 4.42) at 6-foot-2, 223 pounds. It’s safe to say he’s proven himself as a physical freak. Then why didn’t he always play like it? That will continue to be the question on NFL teams’ minds, but the numbers he’s put up could very well be enough to make him a late-round pick. injury red flag

Basically Coleman 2.0

[brees84]

Antonio Brown 5'11
Odell Beckham 5'11
Jarvis Landry 5'11
Emmanuel Sanders 5'11
Jeremy Maclin 6'0
Doug Baldwin 5'10
Randall Cobb 5'10


All those players are complete receivers who can do it all. Who can stop Antonio Brown over the middle?

Exactly and arguably two of the best WR's in all of football.

[WillSaints81]

But we don't have a Brown, and it has more to do with Brees' size and the tight window to throw in. would Brown fit in our offense in the slot? Idk.

AB would be every bit the megastar here as he is in Pittsburgh. He's a special player, period.

I've mentioned his name a few weeks ago but I still like Su'a Cravens out of USC.

Good looking prospect in the 3rd round (assuming he falls that far).

From what I've heard we love him and he's not falling past us in the 2nd round. I thought he'd play weak side LB but then I got to thinking... This is Vacarro's contract year if we don't pick up his 5th year option. If we draft Cravens to play safety we could possibly even trade Vacarro. There's gotta be someone out there who would give up a mid-round pick for him.
