Late Round Sleepers
-
Rashad Jennings isn't a late-rounder anymore.
Brandon Gibson has shown flashes at the Senior Bowl, but has been inconsistent
Jarrett Dillard is very interesting, but he's not very tall and is rail-thin
Roy Miller may not be stout enough to play 3-4 NT. If anything, his fit would be as a very short DE
Jason Phillips was disappointing in the Shrine Game practices last week
Last I heard, Josh Pinkard received a medical hardship year; he may be returning to USC.
-
I am all over Jarret Dillard's balls, I love the guy. He is small but he runs such crisp routes, is fast and catches the ball well. His skillset reminds me of Marvin Harrison.
-
Here's a really good breakdown of Dillard's skills:
nfldraftscout has Dillard projected as a 4th Round pick.

I like what i see in the dillard footage if he can avoid a bump at the line he will be dangerous smallish or not he has a nice set of skills...i never have and never will buy fully into the big receiver theory the smallish guys can do some stuff the taller guys cant and vica versa...

ManKok is dreaming this tread.

He looked like he had some great moves. In the 4th depending on what we got before I would not mind using a pick on him. Guy does look sick on the change of direction
-
Most of these guys are middle round guys, not late rounders, and hardly sleepers.
Rashad Jennings, RB, Liberty - 2nd or 3rd rounder
Brandon Gibson, WR, Washington St.- solid 3rd rounder
Pat White, WR, West Virginia - should be a 3rd rounder
Jason Phillips, LB, Texas Christian - mid rounder - 4th or 5th rounder

just to add to what alo said, pat white will be gone in the fourth if not before it. his vision and throwing ability make him too versatile a prospect. some team will snatch him. the only question is who.

It seems this WildDawg formation is gaining momentum. If it continues to do so, White will fit perfectly into a scheme that wants to use this from time to time.
We've seen first hand what an athletic college Qb can contribute to an NFL team.
I'd be shocked if he lasted very far into the 4th round. I think late 3rd
-
Mike Mayock seems to think White will be taken in the second round.

At worst, Dillard looks like a solid #3. If Jasper Brinkley is gone by the time we pick in the 4th and this guy is still available, I hope we give him some serious consideration.

I worry about injuries a little but I like Virginia's Kevin Olgetree a lot in the 4th round. He's coming out early and yet he's already graduated. He's obviously an intelligent guy.
6'1" and nearly 200 lbs with the ability to gain more bulk.
Instead of TO....It's KO!

From TFY Draft:
Rice
Receiver Jarett Dillard ran times of 4.51 seconds today besides posting a broad jump of 10'11''. He looked terrific running routes and catching the ball. Dillard will workout for the Houston Texans next week and the Chicago Bears are expected to set up a private workout with him.
Tight end James Casey ran similar forty times to his performance at the combine, low to mid 4.7's. Though not poor times they are not fast enough to secure Casey as a top 75 choice.

What do you guys think about Brandon Tate? Was having a strong senior year before tearing his MCL and ACL. If he can fully recover from his injuries, I really think he would be a poor man's Percy Harvin and possibly even Reggie Bush. He plays at a faster speed than he is timed (4.5) and has a knack for making some great catches.

He looks promising, but that is a hell of an injury to come back from. Could be something to look at in the late rounds.
