Official 2015 Draft: Day Three Thread

Mud called it

Nfl.com draft tracker shows it:
We picked up an extra 6th and 7th in addition to the cards pick later this round.
So we have the pick later in the 4th, 3 6th, and 2 7th. I'm hoping we can use those to trade back into the 4th/5th for someone interesting such as Diggs.

Hahahahahahaha why do we hate WR's?
I actually love the guy we took, if Gipson isn't ready/leaves in FA it gives us options. Campbell is the best safety in this class.
Getting good grades so far:
-
Whitner's protege?
Whitner's protege?
Yes....and a hitter just like him...
Mud called it

Steelers do like their Ohio State University guys

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."

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

Packers going up to grab Hundley is a surprise

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.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -

Certainly didn't hurt Anquan Boldin.
