  • Well, I said Max Garcia in the 5th. Does that count?



  • "Allow me introduce you to one of the most un-talked about receivers in 2015 draft class, red-shirt senior Vince Mayle. In the 2015 college football season not many receivers tallied more yards than Mayle, in fact Mayle finished fourth among receivers in reception yardage with 1,483 while at the same time setting Washington State’s record for receptions in one season with 106. So why are some scouts and analysts calling him a fourth or even a fifth round pick?


    Mayle standing 6 feet 2 inches tall while coming in at 219 pounds has the look of an NFL type receiver, not to mention his athleticism, physicality, and ball skills to go along with it. Most critics will point towards age when evaluating Mayle (will be 24 before start of 2015 NFL season) and I wouldn’t necessarily throw it out completely, but each player is different and should be evaluated on a clean slate and in the case of Mayle I’m willing to overlook age because of his talent. Something that also should be noted is that Mayle cut 20 pounds this past off-season and throughout the 2014 season played with a broken finger on his right hand."

    That probably accounts for the knock on him that he dropped 19 passes last year.

    Also there's talk he could be moved to TE as he's a converted Basketball player (ala Cameron).

  • Round 5, no picks for us as of yet - wondering if we package some picks to move up here.

  • and there goes Heeney.....

  • 🙁

    Well.... at least I was right about the round...

  • There goes Hundley

  • Packers going up to grab Hundley is a surprise

  • Our 147pick we trade to Pats They trade To GB to Pick QB Hundley.. Sorry but there it is..

  • Wow

    WR Mayle

    Wow

    WR Mayle

    I like his size.

    My concerns are:

    What will a 4.67 forty translate to if he's to be used outside?

    Does he overcome his issues with dropping too many easy passes that Polian spoke of? EDIT: Just noticed some of that was attributed to playing with a broken hand.

    In fairness, this former basketball player only has 2 seasons of college football in him. He's pretty raw in terms of football background/experience; BUT he's caught 16 TD receptions in the last 2 years.

    Certainly didn't hurt Anquan Boldin.

  • Are we going to start wheeling and dealing? Still sitting on 5 picks. I can't imagine we'll use all of them.

  • gonna climb back on my safety box and say get Prewitt next.... if we can....that'll close the door on building our defensive backfield

    Saw that he ran some 4.5's in his Pro Day.

    Not unique, but functional.

  • gonna climb back on my safety box and say get Prewitt next.... if we can....that'll close the door on building our defensive backfield

    Interestingly his second position per DraftScout is H-back.

    Converted BB player with limited FB experience...

    If he can bulk up to 240...

    New breed TE?

    Gluttony is a sin.

  • Can we Convert Johnny into a QB ?? U dead Right again on Mayle HB.. Which side do have X. Cooper playing DE

  • stools take Jeese James....Bungles drafted Kroft and Uzohma(sp)....Ravens took williams.....sounds like the year of the TE in our div

  • Interestingly his second position per DraftScout is H-back.

    But also (ful)filling.....and fun.....😉

  • Have at it then... I think all my late rounders are gone.

    Dismukes is still around, but another Center makes no sense.

  • ESPN Cleveland @ESPNCleveland · 1h 1 hour ago Earlier in the day, @TonyGrossi graded the Browns' draft a B+, two picks later he says it is "borderline an A-." #Browns #BrownsGoodKarma
