Keenan Burton of Kentucky and Adrian Arrington of Michigan r two guys u should keep your eye on...maybe 3rd rounder for Burton and maybe 4th to 5th rd for Arrington
Arrington would be great. But he has "off-the-field" issues. If Parcells and Ireland stay true to their "good character" rule then we won't draft Arrington. Unfortunately or not unfortunately depending on how you look at it.
The guy we
should draft is Lavelle Hawkins from California in the 3rd round. He's just a shade under 6 feet. Almost 190 pounds. And he runs in the 4.4 range. Not super big, but not small either. And he's fast. Plus he's a playmaker. Overshadowed by DeSean Jackson in college. On any other team, Hawkins would be the man. But I suspect Parcells and Ireland are looking for a bigger WR, so we probably won't draft Hawkins. Unfortunately.
Last year, the guy I really thought we should have taken was James Jones, but I knew Mueller would pass because Jones isn't a speedster. That doesn't seem to be hurting him at Green Bay, though.
The most likely candidate to replace Booker is
Jason Rivers from Hawaii in the 6th round.
Other candidates:
ROUND 2 - Earley Doucet from LSU 6-0 211 4.54
ROUND 2 - Limas Sweed from Texas 6-4 212 4.58
ROUND 2 - Devin Thomas from Michigan St 6-2 215 4.50
ROUND 3 - Earl Bennett from Vanderbilt 6-1 205 4.52
ROUND 4 - D.J. Hall from Alabama 6-2 190 4.49
ROUND 4 - Adarius Bowman from Oklahoma St 6-3 220 4.53
ROUND 4 - Jordy Nelson from Kansas St 6-3 215 4.57
ROUND 6 - Darius Reynaud from WVU 5-10 205 4.47
ROUND 7 - Marcus Smith from New Mexico 6-1 214 4.52
ROUND 7 - Marcus Monk from Arkansas 6-6 218 4.59
ROUND 7 - Steve Johnson from Kentucky 6-2 200 4.49
ROUND 7 - Mario Urrutia from Louisville 6-6 225 4.64
ROUND 7 - Justin Harper from Virginia Tech 6-4 198 4.43
I'm hoping Harper goes undrafted actually. Then we could pick him up as an UDFA.
