Official Prospect Of The Day

Jarrick Bernard-Converse 7th or UDFA​

Ran 4.40 on his pro day. Cornerback - Will he start at special teams?

3/18/23: Like teammate Mekhi Garner, Bernard-Converse impressed pro evaluators in 2022, totaling 44 tackles, two interceptions and three passes defended. He has good size to go along some quickness and athleticism. While Bernard-Converse did not produce a lot of interceptions in his college career, four over five seasons, Bernard-Converse racked up 11 passes broken up in 2021. He could be a second-day pick in the 2023 NFL Draft and end up becoming a pro starter.

BB was at the LSU Pro-Day yesterday and was watching the three DBs very closely. Mehki Garner is the guy that everyone had heard about, Bernard-Converse is moving up the menu. Not one mention of Jay Ward, who BB took some time to say hello to.

Jack Colleto FB, QB, ST's LB - The Jackhammer! Wild ass pick! Paul Hornung Award Winner

Jack Colletto was a utility player/fullback for the Oregon State Beavers. Colletto’s nickname is the Jackhammer due to his physical, downhill style of play. He entered Corvallis as a quarterback before taking snaps at inside linebacker, on special teams, and eventually fullback. Over time, he became a weapon for his team to use.

Colletto is a Swiss army knife that can be impactful in numerous ways. His motor is outstanding and he is a team-first player. His willingness to assume multiple roles and wear alternating hats is impressive. His toughness and competitiveness are easy to identify on tape. On punt and kick coverage, he brings physicality as a tackler once the returner is within his path. He blocks with maximum effort in the run game. He leads the ball carrier into the lane with the intention of creating space. He has decent speed in the open field with the ball in his hands.

Did you look at the Paul Hornung Award list of players?

Yes.
Marcus Kenwood Jones was the last recipient.
The rest of the list is pretty impressive too.

My picks did well - just not for the Patriots.
Only pick I nailed was for Barringer in the 6th (in my mock)
