2007 NFL Draft Hidden Gems

Enough already. If we haven't talked enough about the first round possibilites. Let's dig into the late rounds since this is where we'll find a guy or two to make an impact on special teams and/or rotation.

Addressing our need for WR depth, Saunders formations, the departure of David Patten, and to compete with Espy, who the coaches haven't shown a lot of confidence in. First up is New Hampshire WR David Ball. Yeah, yeah yeah. He has a slow 40 time but, with this type of production and intangibles, he's sure to make an impact as a third or fouth WR and return guy. Mind you, Thrash won't play forever.

With two picks in the sixth round and a Redskins history of throwing away late round picks, second up is Notre Dame WR Jeff Samardzija. Need I say more. We have almost no chance having this guy suit up in burgandy and gold with his success in baseball pending but, what the heck. Haven't we longed for a 6'5" WR for way too long?

Does this team love TEs or what? This is a guy I really would be happy to have on the roster. It was more necessary to have an additional OL lined up eligible in goal line situations. Nevada TE Anthony Pudewell puts a stop to that and adds the unexpected pass cathing threat.

DB you say? For those who think we're settled at the S and CB position, think again. A couple guys who scouts have them projected to go earlier than I hope they will eventually be, are Kent State CB Usoma Young, Cal Poly CB Courtney Brown, and TCU S Marvin White. Small school and JUCO transfers are always intriguing. Doesn't seem like teams are sleeping on the likes of Hampton (Miami (Fla) transfer) CB Tavarious Bain though.

This wouldn't be complete without a OL prospect. I, for one, am not at ease with 6'8" converted OT Todd Wade starting at G. And if the team wants to get away from FA journeymen they should take a good hard look at Clemson G/C Dustin Fry especially if they stay put at #6 overall and select a DL.

And there you have it. Give me your opinions on late round prospects. Keep it realistic as possible (no Justin Harrell falling to the 5th round stuff). Any other info on these and other prospects are welcome.
