I'm going with 7th round. I think most teams will pass, and then, when it gets down to the last round, some team will take a flyer, just for the hell of it. The kid's got speed and great skills, but he's nothing but trouble. I hope the Broncos pass.

He's an LSU defensive player. I say the Chiefs grab him, at #1...

Rohirrim · 11-29-2012, 11:18 AM

He's definitely got some skills...

4th rounder or lower in a heartbeat. Anything higher than a 4th rounder is stupid. Bet the kid tears up the combine though. He's a really instinctive player and has really good hips.

Doggcow · 11-29-2012, 12:42 PM

I would be ok with a late round flier on him. Can never have enough quality DB's.

...is something a straight man should say about another straight man never.

late third round as a kick/punt returner specialist and backup CB/S.

BowlenBall · 11-30-2012, 07:44 AM

Size pushes him from 1st to 2nd round.

Character pushes him from 2nd to 3rd.

He'll go in the mid-third round (a.k.a. "The Clarett Zone")

elsid13 · 11-30-2012, 07:55 AM

Talent but underdeveloped technique and character concerns push him to the 4th/5th round.

Yeah, I'd say fourth.

SouthStndJunkie · 11-30-2012, 02:01 PM

I'd be more than happy to draft him in the 6th or 7th round or sign him as an UDFA.

He's tough and scrappy, and has a penchant for making big plays.

Low risk, with the possibility of a high reward.

The NFL is a pass happy league and you can never have enough scrappy nickel/dime corners with a nose for the ball who also kick ass on special teams.

Momentum · 12-03-2012, 09:11 PM

I got him as a sixth. I dont see him as a scrappy nickel/dime, the NFL has taken players like him out of the game with all the hands rules. I think if he can gain about 10 lbs he could be a great safety with his penchant for big plays.

spdirty · 12-05-2012, 11:20 PM

A year ago I was hoping he would fall to wherever we were in the first. Now, man that talent is just too much to pass up past the 3rd round I'd think. See how he interviews, do some character research (Les Miles kicked him off, that freaking tough to accomplish), go from there.

Swedish Extrovert · 12-05-2012, 11:27 PM

He's a complete bonehead, but someone will reach and take him in the 3rd or 4th based on talent.

Les gave scholarships to JaMarcus Russel and Patrick Peterson.

Patrick Peterson is dumb as a box of rocks, but at least he can play.
