[QUOTE="Techster, post: 119028, member: 360"] Waller will get a look in someone's camp, but the chances of him getting drafted is slim. He just doesn't show the consistency or speed necessary for a team to spend a pick on him. In the 2014 draft, there were 33 WRs drafted. Think about that...out of all 120+ teams in just FBS college football, all which use multiple WRs, do you think Waller is one of the top 30+/- prospects? Now include players on the FCS level. 4 WRs were drafted from the FCS level last season. LSU alone had 3 WRs picked in the draft, Clemson 2. Getting drafted, even in the lower rounds, is a very special privilege only a select few get. The thing that intrigues about Waller is his size, but "big" WRs aren't a rarity anymore. He doesn't have the freak size/speed/athleticism combo of Stephen Hill...and even Stephen was our clear cut go to guy. Waller has never been that for us. I'm rooting for Waller because he's a GT guy, and I think he's an intriguing prospect to develop at TE, but NFL doesn't draft guys who show more promise than production...they sign them as UDFA's and put them on the practice squad to see if they can develop. Guys they draft are expected to contribute from Day 1. [url]http://www.nfl.com/draft/2014/tracker#dt-tabs:dt-by-position/dt-by-position-input:wr[/url] [/QUOTE]
