Don't list elite prospects, top picks etc, but who are those guys that no matter what position your team needs/wants they just make you go mmmmmmmmm, those guys you see something in that makes you think they just might be special and may go higher then so called "mockers" have them going.

Try to limit your list here. (Don't count Jaylon Smith due to injury dropping him)

Leonte Carroo
Devontae Booker (esp in the ZBS)
Kenny Lawler
Tyler Boyd
Tyler Higbee
Sean Davis
Bralon Addison
Dak Prescott
James Bradberry
Tyvis Powell
Stephen Weatherley
Maurice Canady
Joe Thuney
Antonio Morrison
Charles Tapper

I know there is someone I am going to leave off that one of you will mention that I wanted on this list.

Basically this is a list for players who you think will end up going higher then the common draft site has them going. Not sleepers. (Although some could be)

I still love Miles Killebrew, but I think he is going to end up going about where I expected him to go which is now where the common draft site has him going, so I left him off, same with Artie Burns.

LB Tyler Matakevich

Not that I think he'll go much higher than people have him now (4thish), but I think he will be a solid starter for years to come for some team. Dude is always around the ball, it seems.

He kind of reminds me of the Stanford Lb that quit on SF for concussion fear. Easy name but my brain refuses to participate right now. He's got that tenacity ,motor and instincts to find the ball. I really like his potential.

Damn. No kidding with the red and white. Lol. Their such similar teams otherwise too. Big O lines for one.

i think, given the limited amount of edge rushers this year, correa goes earlier than end of round 2 early round 3

also with how important sideline to sideline linebackers are becoming, i could see deion jones going early as well

Stanford LB Blake Martinez was close to making my list.

Some reason Zack Sanchez doesn't do a lot for me. He has great ball skills, but I think he is gonna struggle in man to man and tackling. He's gonna have to be in a Tampa 2 IMO to succeed.

Alex McCallister is interesting. Few red flags with him. Showed great signs at UF as a pass rusher. Only concern is he is very tall for an OLB, and doesn't have the weight for a DE although he has added it. He'd be a great project to work with. Reminds me of another UF DE/OLB Lynden Trail who transferred to Norfolk State then sat on the Redskins PS.

My concern with him would be where do you play him and once he adds more weight will he lose some of that explosion?

I just see him as a situational pass rusher, but given how important those guys are becoming, I wouldn't mind adding him late. Guys who are explosive and get to the pass rusher are, imo, the second most important on the team (behind the qb of course)

i would go

1. QB
2. Edge rusher
3. shutdown corner
4. interior pass rusher
5. tackle

Yeah, I think he could be one of those guys as you said a nice 3rd down pass rusher. Be a good value pick later on with good upside to be part of a rotation. Be interesting to see him come in on 3rd and L in Denver. ;)

I view some of the OL guys as people who will go earlier than some expect. It just doesn't seem like the deepest position this year and with OL play so terrible teams will be reaching hoping to find that player.

I could see a guy like Willie Beavers who has great athleticism but just very raw technician being a guy that maybe somebody in the 3rd or 4th round takes a chance on where some places have him going 7th round.

Joe Dahl is another as I have seen him in the 6th round or later partly because of an injury and just concerns about his fit but I think he would do just fine and some team will love his versatility.

Okay I will take the time on Ronald Blair .. I watch him and see pure power always moving up field he is the real deal and is a football player all the burst you will ever need as a player in the NFL . he is such a keeper I will be so happy id we draft him . His game has zero holes in it IMO ..

He balls every play is there were the ball is He will be coveted by this staff . He is not blocked he is always moving to the part of the field he wants to be at always in control .. Damn hard to find ................

He is the anti player of this kid we have coming in from BYU ... I don't get the love to bring him in ?

I also see him as Starter in Jacksons Spot .. He is that good . He plays in control at all times
