Another late-round kids I liked, Jayson Dimanche from So. Ill, goes to the Bengals. CIN got great value from a UFA LB last yr in Burfict

I like these three as solid prospects.

Sullen G Auburn, lots of starts at a major school and great size

Roundtree WR Meatchicken, he was a star in the making until the coaches decided to not throw the ball down feild as often, he is big with decent hands

Dimanche LB S. Ill., this small school kid could be a hybrid LB/SS if he has the wheels to cover anybody at the next level

Roundtree is interesting.

With the depth we have at WR however, he might be nothing more than playing Larry Fitzgerald on the practice squad.

I have zero thoughts of getting the next Burfict and honestly, Burfict was known to be a hell of a talent with issues.

Many had him as a first round pick heading into his senior season.

That's not the case with most UDFA's.

I would have thought he fit better as an interior O-Lineman or a Nose Tackle....seems a bit hefty for a WR.

In other news PFT is reporting Onterio McCalebb is signing as a CB rather than a RB. I can find no evidence that he played CB even in HS, I guess it is worth the shot to get that kind of speed on the field but it seems likely to not be successful at this level.

Nope, can't find anything about him playing CB in his whole career to this point.

Maybe CB is the only position they could keep him at, but can't see him as anything but a return guy.

He's a little light in the ass at 168 lbs.

I think they can add some weight and get him in for screens and all sorts of nifty plays... heck send him on 9 routes all day.

I would like Pacman to return kicks and punts. He will have less pressure at the nickel so get the ball in his hands often.

He played corner in high school. "Several" teams had him run CB drills at the Combine. I assume he did well enough to intrigue.

Funny, the other sites never showed he played CB in high school.

Either way, I think he has a way to go in order to make this roster at either spot.

They probably just figure if there is a best way to get that speed on the field, the CB provides the best opportunity.

His lack of height makes him useless as a CB. His best fit is as a third down back catching screen passes, kinda like a DeShawn Jackson in the backfield. I don't see him making the team now. Has he even signed yet?
