Late Round Draft Gems
Posted on 4/18/17 at 11:40 am

I think this guy is worth a 5-7 round pick.
WR- Robert Davis - Georgia St.
6'3" 219 lbs
4.44 40
41.0 vert
136 Broad
He was the team's second-leading receiver as a true freshman (44-711, four touchdowns) and then garnered honorable mention All-Sun Belt honors in 2014 with 50 catches for 732 yards and two scores. The next two seasons, Davis was a first-team all-conference pick, averaging 16.1 yards per catch in 2015 (61-980, six TD) and leading the Sun Belt in receiving yards per game (77.8, 67-968) and averaging 43.8 yards on his five touchdowns in 2016.
Stats against Power 5 schools:
Senior
2016 - Wisconsin 8 catches 93 yards 1 TD
Junior
2015 - Oregon 3 catches 89 yards 1 TD
Sophomore
2014 - Washington 4 catches 40 yards 1 TD
Clemson 2 catches 29 yards
Freshman
2013 W Virginia 3 catches 39 yards
Alabama 3 catches 45 yards
Who do y'all got?

Michael Roberts - TE Toledo
6'4"
270
33" arm length
11 1/2" hands
Strengths When he catches the ball, it matters. Has had over 80 percent of his career catches go for first downs and this season saw 35.5 percent of his catches go for touchdowns (16). Big target with gigantic hands. Quick to open and find the ball on stop routes. Plus body control to adjust and clamp down on throws outside his frame. Will continue to probe and adjust for openings against zone coverage. Very capable run blocker. Operates from strong base and utilizes lengths well. Sinks hips to brace up and neutralize defensive ends with leverage and uses hips and shoulder turn to steer out of the play. Has experience blocking from in-line and from wing spot.
Weaknesses Comes out of a knock-kneed stance from line of scrimmage. Upright short strider into routes. Gradual gear down into his breaks. Tight at the top of his route. Rolls through his cuts to create momentum for his separation. Angles up to linebackers as blocker will need work. Overshoots targets and allows them to make plays underneath his block. Needs blocks to be right in front of him. Too many misses in space

He might not be late round anymore but George Kittle, TE from Iowa sounds phenomenal. 4.52 40 but also arguably the best blocking TE in the draft.

I thought about him wish I could have his motor in most players. Just not sure he's got the athleticism to succeed. NFL version of Rudy

Boulware lack the athleticism but dude is a football player. I think he could surprise some people. If anything I think he could be a stand out special teams guy, which is nothing to sneeze at

WR- Robert Davis - Georgia St.
JERRY UGOKWE, William & Mary
OT
6'7" 321
Nigerian native did not play football until he was a junior in high school. Has a NFL frame, length and long arms. Plays with a nasty streak and looks he could settle in as a right tackle at the next level.

Marlon Mack RB South Florida, maybe a bit more mid rounds

Isaiah McKenzie - WR Georgia
5'7" 173 lbs.
He's a very quick, explosive little slot receiver. Georgia used him a lot on bubble screens and stuff. Very good return man. Unfortunately, he drops a lot of easy balls when there's nothing but green ahead. He's expected to go in the 6th round at the earliest.
