If this is true, it will be a great pick up. He’s Darren Sproles type

This list has a couple of names I haven’t seen yet

@manxman2601 - When I was asking about Zuber and Smith, I was hoping you had draft bios on them,..

No sorry. I’ve done no work this year. Took a year off.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Hastings looks like he's 15

A 5-8, 178lb Syracuse WR

Former Syracuse WR Sean Riley signs with Patriots

Riley spent most of the pre-draft process working out at Grossetti Performance in Pittsburgh and sent tape from a mock pro day to NFL teams. He said he ran a 3.99-second short shuttle and 6.41-second L-drill during the workout, both of which would’ve led all receivers at the NFL Scouting Combine. Riley also said he clocked a personal-best 4.42-second 40-yard dash, which would’ve tied for seventh.

That athleticism made Riley a natural fit to be Syracuse’s primary kick return from his freshman season. He led the NCAA in kickoff return yardage that year, taking an ACC single-season record 53 kickoff returns.

Really digging JJ Taylor the more I research him. I wonder if he can stick. I can’t imagine he could be very good in pass protection but I don’t know if that’s quite as important this year. Michel-White-Burkhead-Harris at top, may come down to Bolden vs Taylor. Seems like a good guy in to rotate in.

He’s pretty strong for his size. But yeah he can get bowled over by a pass rush. I can see him as a poor man’s Darren Sproles

 

[scott99]

Only problem is his height. We seem to like short guys in UDFA.

 

[mgteich]

So, we'll spend hundreds and hundreds of posts analyzing and discussing UDFA, with one or two likely to make the team.

And we will likely spend relatively little time on the Day 3 additions, from which we likely have more players make the teams.

He's not coming to play football. They signed him to put a platter on his head and use him as a mobile table.

 

[Snooky97]

Get JJ Taylor in space and let him do his thing. He’s also not the worse in the pass blocking department either. I’ll try and cut up some tape tomorrow and post it.

 

[Deus Irae]

Looking at how BB is trying to do things now that Brady's gone, and comparing it to how Licht/Arians are doing it now that Brady is there, is a pretty interesting thing.

And when you add Flores, it gets almost scary in how similar things are going.

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Riley looks so much better in highlights than full games. He needs to learn to sell his routes, not just fake and go; his quickness is apparent, but he can't get open against press or if the corner is patient through his first juke. Still, the agility and speed are intriguing.

What a name.. Javelin..

I was thinking of the name Guidry which has a visceral effect on those of us over a certain age......
