Giard averaged over 18 yards per reception for his career, 22 yards per catch as a senior.

He played in the East-West Shrine all-star game.

He has also drawn interest from the New England Patriots and San Francisco 49ers.

Goard finished his career with 100 catches, 1,842 receiving yards and 24 touchdown catches.

He had four 100-yard receiving games as a senior, catching 41 passes for 900 yards and eight touchdowns.

That included seven catches for 175 yards and four touchdowns against Tennessee-Martin.

Would be interesting if we did land him in the draft/UDFA and somehow he and Lamont Bryant turn into polished receivers. We would have two WR's over 6'3 running 4.3-4.4

I'll take their word for it, but Im not sure he looks like 205 pounds in that pic (height helps, I imagine).

[rayzor]

skinny kid.

wouldn't mind him late or as a udfa.

i would hope he isn't the only WR we pick up in the draft this year, tho.

I can't find any other video but this one..

Seems like we've been connected to just about every mid-late round WR prospect out there.

BOTTOM LINE

Goard’s lean frame, average overall speed, and occasional concentration issues might give NFL scouts some pause, but his potential as an upside project could have a team select him late.

Elon?

I thought we learned our lesson about drafting scrub players from scrub colleges? See: Armanti Edwards

Don't know much about Goard, but I've heard some good things about Mellette. Should be an interesting player who can develop into someone productive.
