"[Duarte] can stop and start on a dime, killing college defensive backs on double-moves," Renner noted. NFL Media analysts Daniel Jeremiah and Lance Zierlein have both tagged the 6-foot-2, 231-pounder with a Jordan Reed comparison in this pre-draft season. Last year, the tweener wideout/tight end caught 53 passes for 872 yards and 10 touchdowns. "[His] complete inexperience as a blocker and limited size push him down the board a bit, but in the right situation, he could easily develop into the top receiving threat in this class," Renner concluded, pegging Duarte as a potential third-round selection. Source: Pro Football Focus Mar 26 - 6:43 PM Elandon Roberts - LB - Cougars Houston LB Elandon Roberts believes he is the best at his position in this draft class. "The team that pulls the trigger on me is getting the best linebacker in the draft," Roberts said. If nothing else, we appreciate his confidence in the face of an omission from the NFL Scouting Combine. During his Pro Day earlier this week, he ran the 40-yard dash in the vicinity of 4.50 seconds while logging 25 bench press reps. Texans LB coach Mike Vrabel worked him through positional drills. But back to the confidence thing. Roberts wouldn't settle for just calling himself the best linebacker in the class. He sees far, far greater achievements in his future. Did somebody say "Hall of Fame"? Yes, somebody did. "The team that takes me is definitely getting a steal. When they get that, I'm going to the the Super Bowl and be a Hall of Famer. I feel like I'm the best inside linebacker in college football. I feel like I raised some eyebrows," Roberts said. He is unlikely to be drafted before Day 3. Source: Houston Chronicle Mar 26 - 6:31 PM Danny Anthrop - WR - Boilermakers At Purdue's Pro Day on Tuesday, WR Danny Anthrop said, "I’m excited to go back to doing football stuff and not being a track athlete." On Tuesday, 23 NFL teams (plus two CFL teams!) were present to watch Anthrop and company run through the testing rigmarole. The wideout blazed his way through the 40-yard dash in just 4.40 seconds, a remarkable achievement given that he tore his ACL a year ago November. His agent had been hearing that scouts expected a time more in line with a 4.50-4.60-second mark. The 6-foot, 193-pound draft-hopeful caught everything thrown his way during position drills, too. The best Anthrop can probably hope for in the draft is a selection in the sixth or seventh round. Source: Lafayette Courier & Journal Mar 26 - 6:18 PM Soma Vainuku - RB - Trojans NFL Media senior analyst Gil Brandt noted that USC FB Soma Vainuku worked out as a linebacker during Wednesday's Pro Day. On the testing side of things, Vainuku ran the 40-yard dash in 4.65 seconds and 4.64 seconds. He additionally notched a three-cone drill time of 7.16 seconds and a short shuttle of 4.44 seconds. Per Brandt, the 5-foot-11, 244-pounder "caught the ball really well" during offensive positional drills. He was also put through his paces as a linebacker, which can only help his draft prospects. According to NFL Media's Lance Zierlein, he has struggled in the past in securing blocks, an obvious red flag for a player hoping to make the NFL as a fullback. Source: NFL.com Mar 26 - 6:05 PM Jerell Adams - TE - Gamecocks Pro Football Focus analyst Michael Renner believes that South Carolina TE Jerell Adams "has the potential to be a true in-line blocking tight end in the NFL." "[Adams'] size (6-foot-5-inches, 247 pounds) doesn’t suggest it, but [he] locks in on defensive ends better than any other tight end in the upper half of the draft," Renner wrote. On the more critical side of the equation, the analyst worries that Adams has a tendency to catch the ball with his body, which can lead to issues in a crowd (the Gamecock product dropped five passes last season). While ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. has touted Adams as a potential late first-rounder, this strikes us as a particularly cheery assessment. A selection late on Day 2 or early on Day 3 are probably more realistic projections. Source: Pro Football Focus Mar 26 - 5:38 PM Max Tuerk - C - Trojans USC C Max Tuerk (knee) performed 26 reps on the bench press during Wednesday's Pro Day. Tuerk was predictably limited in his testing, as he continues to recover from a torn knee ligament sustained in early October. The 6-foot-5, 298-pounder is shooting for a potential complete workout come April, though that will depend on the progression of his recovery. Despite a relative lack of size, he was viewed as one of the better offensive linemen in the 2016 pool prior to his injury.
