minutemancl Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Does anyone think that we see guys like Walker Little and Greg Rousseau, talented guys but who haven't played in a while, slip even more than we thought originally? I think teams are going to be extra cautious with guys like that and they may fall into close to the 2nd half of day 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't played in two years and coming off an injury? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think teams are going to be extra cautious with guys like that and they may fall into close to the 2nd half of day 2. I don't know that Rousseau is going in the top 50 anyway, so it's hard to say whether that's because of the player, or not having played. Then you have guys like Spencer Brown or Nico Collins and their range is so wide that I think it's hard to say that they slipped for one reason or another. Little has additional mitigating factors as well (injuries). I could see him go late day 2, early day 3. I have no doubt that the time off impacts the draft boards of some teams, but likely doesn't on others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting question on where he would go. He's basically been tied to 3 teams and nobody else in the earlier part of the draft. And the panthers connection was shut down by Jourdan Rodrigue, leaving only 2 (Pats and 49ers). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because he's a bad prospect, but he's a late Day 2, early Day 3 type. Rousseau is maybe a late Day 1, early Day 2 type. Someone's going to gamble on him.

I like Marshall and Bateman too, but after that you are getting a developmental guy or a slot guy. I'm sure some random dude in rd 5 is going to have a great year, because that always happens, but after those 5 (and odds are at least 2 of those 5 are disappointing) there are going to be a LOOOOOOT more misses than hits.

And Pats have shown way more interest in Fields and Lance in terms of the delegation sent to their pro days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
