Confirmed Interest - Players


Lout

Recommended Posts

Just thought I would make a list of players that we have confirmed interest in and the coinciding projected rounds. It's hard to keep track of all these guys. It appears that we are not tipping our hand on any 1st or 2nd Round prospects for the most part.

If I missed any, please post link confirming interest.

These projected rounds come from CBS sports rankings.

OT

Mitchell Schwartz - Cal - 5-6th Round

James Brown - Troy - 7th Round

Both of these players could project to OG in the NFL.

OG

Senio Kelemete - Washington - 3rd Round

Rishaw Johnson - California (PA) - 5-6th Round

WR

Brian Quick - App St - 2-3rd Round

Tim Benford - Tenn Tech - 5-6th Round

MLB

Audie Cole - NC St - 3-4th Round

OLB

Keenan Robinson - Texas - 3-4th Round

DE

Vinny Curry - Marshall - 2nd Round

Malik Jackson - Tennessee - 3-4th Round

DT

Kendall Reyes - UConn - 3rd Round

Kheeston Randall - Texas - 3rd Round

Akiem Hicks - Regina - 5th Round

Derek Wolfe - Cincinnati - 5-6th Round

Jaye Howard - Florida - 6-7th Round

CB

Leonard Johnson - Iowa St - 2-3rd Round

Jamell Fleming - Oklahoma - 3-4th Round

Casey Hayward - Vanderbilt - 4-5th Round

QB

Russell Wilson - Wisconsin - 5-6th Round

TE

DeAngelo Peterson - LSU - 6th Round

Punter

Brad Nortman - Wisconsin - 7th Round

I hope we aren't interested in him.. but if we are, share the link.

If Wilson goes undrafted or is available in the 7th round we'd be dumb not to take him honestly. He is at least going to be a valuable backup in the league. He ran a pro-style spread at State and a pro-style offense under center at Wisky. I will also bet you that outside of Luck he is probably the most NFL-ready QB in the draft when it comes to the mental aspect of the game. Finally...his arm is as strong as anyone in the draft. The guy has a cannon. I said it while he was at State that if he was 6'3'' instead of 5'11'' he would be a first round pick EASY.

I really like Schwartz, Quick and Robinson.

Snag a CB in the first, add these guys and I'm a happy mofo.

I like Schwartz a lot.. Mayock said he needed to go back and watch his tape because he was a lot more atheltic than he thought. He might be able to play RT.. with Geoff at RG.. that side of the Oline would be nasty. I definitely don't like Quick in the 2nd round.. there will be WAY better talent there when we pick.. and I love Robinson.. the guy is a complete stud.

I have no doubt in his arm ability or his mental aptitude. I just worry about his height. He is officially listed at 5' 10.75".. just a shade under 5'11". I can't think of a single NFL QB that height.

Quick looks like a faster Dwayne Jarrett, I'd take that combination of speed, size and hands any day.

Based on our needs, I don't think we target him in the 2nd round.. and I don't think he will be there in the 4th round. But, he looks like a decent prospect.

    • For a 3rd year QB? That flies with the Teppers and makes the HC and GM look like fools.  Their fear is evident. Their careers are tied to making it work, it's ehy they signed on here and they are professionals who knows what kind of a situation they could potentially have on their hands if they are not calculating about popping up Bryce. I call BS to that sir. It's why every QB after Bryce couldn't make any other rosters past a PS spot...at best
    • Not just Dalton.   But the only real young arm they would let be seen the past 2 years was a really a bad Jack Plummer.  Who was super weak even for that tier  Can’t convince me how weak they made the atmosphere around Young hasn’t been intentional.     
    • Things of note: mentions he has six drops. Six. For all the people that don’t know what a drop is, he has six. That’s a long distance from the league leader at ten. (To be fair, pro football reference has him at seven, still not bad.  Plenty of others is that same range.  His drop % is 6.3, which is low.) Catchable ball success ratio: 83% which is great. Catchable being the key word.  Mentions his contested catch rate is low at 5/18 but that’ll get better I think when he can rely on muscle memory for routes, catches, etc and the game slows down for him
