We need some big-time help in the passing game and while I think we should fill that need in one of the first two rounds. There are some quality late-round WRs that we could pick up in the 6th or 7th and take a shot at. They could be good special-teamers or possibly, with time, grow into valuable parts of the offense.

James Banks, WR, Carson-Newman (6-2 1/2, 212, 4.60)
Biggest pro: Combination of size and acrobatic athleticism
Biggest con: Baggage (24-year-old was released by Tennessee due to academic and disciplinary issues)
Draft projection: Seventh round or free agent

His biggest problem seems to be attitude, but if he proves to be beyond that in an interview then he could be a late-round guy.

Mario Urrutia, WR, Louisville (6-5 1/2, 218, 4.65)
Biggest pro: Size
Biggest con: Separation skills
Draft projection: Fourth or fifth round

Not a speedster, but that's why we have Evans. His size would be a great compliment.

18.7 SLLLEEEPPPPPPPEEEERRRRRi got to see the combine first though.



Todd Blythe : Wide Receiver : Iowa St. : Ht: 6'6 Weight: 210 lbs.
Blythe isn't the speediest wide receiver out there but he has some great ups and uses his big frame to out muscle defenders to come down with the ball in the endzone. He had a standout out 2005 season where he racked up 1000 receiving yards and 9 scores. If it wasn't for an illness which kept him out of many games in the 06 season, (he still managed 8 touchdowns while only playing in 8 games,) http://www.draftseason.com/Underrated

I think Arrington might go higher due to upside and his bowl performance.

I doubt he goes any higher than 4th but the combine could change everything.
