Who will be the unexpected guy that slides this draft?

Seems like there's one guy every year that does. I think it will be either one of the QBs between Manziel and Bortles, or Anthony Barr. I'll go with Barr as my guess though.

Bortles

Barr has already fallen pretty far. He was a top 10 pick a few months ago.

Manziel

AJ will fall from the first round to the 4th round.

Manziel

Barr won't make it pass Dallas at 16

Barr doesn't fit in the Cowboys system. He's not a 4-3 DE or an OLB.
I think they go DT. Hageman.

QBs would be easy this year.
I think a WR drops lower than expected.

It should be Bortles.

I'm gonna go with Mike Evans.
Not a massive slide. But he's been in the top 10 in most mocks since February-ish. I have a feeling teams are not as high on him as we think. He is too raw as a route runner. He will have a steep learning curve.
He is only rated so high because of his height. Cooks, OBJ and Lee are WAY more talented, just not as big.

Please let a WR drop.

Rand Al, we usually agree on a lot of stuff. But I just disagree with that statement. He's a lot better route runner than people give him credit for. I mean he did play with Manziel... Most of the time it was broken plays.
The reason he solidified himself right behind Watkins is because he showed that he can run a full route tree at workouts, combine, pro day, etc.
Earlier today I heard that he could go ahead of Watkins. They are 1A and 1B. Clearly ahead of the other guys.
Evans is gonna be a big time player. If you would have said that about Kelvin Benjamin, I would have agreed 100%. Just not about Evans.

It was bound to happen eventually.
I don't think he is of the Kelvin Benjamin variety. Clearly he is a talented player. I'm just not that high on him. I would love for the Saints to get him.
It's just a guessing thread so I figued I would throw something off-the-wall rather than the standard "x" QB or Barr.
ETA: I've noticed about the way I look at players recently that I 100% prefer guys who are consistent and hard workers over guys who are just superior athletes. I am a huge fan of guys like Aaron Murray ("small, weak arm, etc"), Jordan Matthews ("Slow"), JFF ("small, too take-off prone"), etc. I think Shayne Skov is a 3rd-4th round type guy but there is a thread on ST where people are talking about him going undrafted (??) because he is slow. I just think seeing a guy play well CONSISTENTLY is a way bigger indicator of how good of a player he is than JUST being a great athlete. Obviously I'm not really talking about Evans here because he was a beast in college. I'm more just pointing out something I noticed about my own preferences.

I want Barr or Moseley to drop so bad, and Saints move up a few spots and take 1 of them.

Here in Nashville, Barr has been the guy at 11, but the Titans may trade out or even snag a qb w/new regime so maybe him. Teddy's stock has dropped, but he may sit for even longer than projected before his phone rings.

LSU fans look past evens because Robinson punked him this year.

I'm not sold on Evans even though he has all the physical skills. His college game was a lot of pushing off against weaker opponents. He won't get away with that in the NFL.

The NFL is pretty relaxed on WR too
