The 2015 Sleeper Thread: Day 3 Prospects You Think Will Surprise...
-
-
I read Tull's bio & it's stories like his that make my favorite part of the draft the signing of UDFAs. They DON't have a sense of entitlement, but DO have a hunger, chip on their shoulder, & frequently a work ethic far surpassing those of many early draft picks.
Ol' "Give me players with something to prove" Dad

Well... if we're picking guys from our own school...
I would think Gardner would be worth a look as a UDFA. He showed flashes during limited time at WR, and could develop into a solid, big body WR. In the mean time, while on the practice squad, he could help simulate mobile QBs in practice. Also, obviously, great character.
Idk, just an idea. He most likely isn't getting drafted, but its an idea.
I'll see if I can find any small school sleepers in the mean time

BJ Finney, C - Kansas State: Former walk on. I like guys who are hungry to prove themselves. Especially wrestlers turned lineman.
Max Valles, OLB - Virginia: Noticed this kid while watching Eli Harold. Every bit as athletically gifted as any other prospect in this draft. Just very, very raw. Upside is tremendous though.
Cam Thomas, CB - Western Kentucky: He's a safety prospect in the Browns defense. Elsewhere? He's a tampa2 type DB. GREAT awareness of route combinations from playing in zone defenses.
Tevin McDonald, S - Eastern Washington: Honey Badger-esque. All the instincts, recognition and intensity you want but none of the size. Listed 5'11 200lbs. More like 5'9 185.

7th round C/OG ? UDFA ?
Come on, ...with the first name of "Shaq" ? That would be cool.

DeAndre Smelter, WR, GT
- Excellent size, strength, and athleticism. Has superb RAC ability.
Clayton Geathers, SS, UCF
- UCF was on national TV a lot this fall and I caught quite a few of their games. Geathers stood out to me as he has a knack for being around the ball. Tested well at the combine and possesses elite size.
Kyle Emanuel, OLB, North Dakota State
- Won the Buck Buchanon award as the top defensive player in FCS. Good size, athleticism, and strength. First "Strength" listed on NFL is this "Logged 16.5 tackles for loss and 10 sacks in eight games against top 25 opponents." I would love that on the Browns as a backup OLB/ILB.
Tyeler Davison, DT, Fresno State
- Davison has all the tools and I think he could play inside in a 4-3 or 3-4. It would not surprise me to see a team draft him in the 4th based on potential.

day 3 is what, the 5th round starting out?
Mik,
Day 3 is round 4 through 7 & it's May 2, 2015. Then comes my favorites, the UDFAs.

Been mentioned on this thread, but this Chris Bonner out of CSU Pueblo looks like the real deal. Has all the physical tools to be a great quarterback in the NFL. For a late round flyer, he could be a steal. There'll always be skeptics when a guy is DII, but just watch his highlights.

Rob Havenstein RT - plug and play for the next ten years

I had never heard of Chris Bonner, but his video is impressive,
but I'd pass. Way too much Derek Anderson.

"Brock Osweiler" ...nah.
But Mannion is a guy I'd be very, very interested in.

i agree. like haverstein since seeing his senior bowl performance. i think he could play anywhere on the OL.

Evan Spencer, wr Ohio State.
Working to be drafted... I think he'd be a huge steal
in the 6th, maybe even 5th round.
Tough, fast, excellent blocker...good hands. why not? I'd draft him in a NY second.

Mine too. I know the Browns were talking to A&M's K Josh Lambo who had a greater % of fg's and xp's than their Lou Groza Award winner Randy Bullock, now with Houston Texans. Former pro soccer player so he has the leg.

Georgia Tech lineman tend to be athletic which certainly can't hurt in a ZBS. I wouldn't hate this at all.

Agree, even said the same thing like two pages back. Waaay underutilized at OSU. Same with Heurman.Evan Spencer, wr Ohio State.
