Kiper on a conference call with Bears beat writer Battlestar Galactica

Some league insiders believe as many as ten receivers could be selected in the second round of this years draft. Our most recent receiver rankings of April 5th has five wide outs with second round grades.

One team seemingly likely to pull the trigger on a player at the position in the second frame is the Dallas Cowboys.

The team has met extensively with several potential second round receivers including Arrelious Benn of Illinois, Brandon LaFell of LSU and Ohio’s Taylor Price. In fact Jerry Jones personally met with Price on his recent visit to the Cowboys facility and spent extensive time with him.

just passing along info guys..if dallas does go WR in rd 2 who would you guys want? here is a list of some WRs who could go in rd 2..

Demaryius Thomas
Arrelious Benn
Golden Tate
Damian Williams
Taylor Price
Carlton Mitchell
Mardy Gilyard
Brandon LaFell
Andre Roberts
Riley Cooper
Eric Decker

a lot of interesting nuggets from his conference call..the rest are not cowboys related but still interesting..

Mel Kiper says Terrence Cody will go in the second round. He has visited the Ravens. Likes Javier Arenas as a third-rounder
0
Mel Kiper says LSU DL Al Woods is a sleeper who could go in third or fourth round, predicted WR Brandon LaFell to go in second round.

Mel Kiper said Dan Williams won't get past the Miami Dolphins at No. 12 overall.

Mel Kiper predicted that Brandon Graham will go 19th overall to the Atlanta Falcons

Kiper said that Georgia Tech safety Morgan Burnett likely to go to Seahawks in the second round

Mel Kiper predicts Earl Thomas will go in to top 10 to 15 picks.

Mel Kiper thinks the Ravens could use WR Demaryius Thomas as a nice developmental prospect.

Mel Kiper said Dan Williams won't get past the Miami Dolphins at No. 12 overall.

Kiper said East Carolina Linval Joseph is the "hot guy moving up" right now, and wouldn't be surprised if he goes in the 1st RD

Citing "a lot of different sources," ESPN's Mel Kiper said in a conference call Wednesday that the Seahawks will not use one of their first-round picks on Notre Dame QB Jimmy Clausen.

Go out on a limb, Mel. Seattle invested a sizable chunk of money and its 2010 draft in Charlie Whitehurst, who is Pete Carroll's unquestioned QB of the future. Clausen should be available for the Bills at No. 9, though ESPN's Chris Mortensen doesn't believe the Buddy Nix regime will select him.


ESPN's Mel Kiper said in a conference call Wednesday that NFL people he's spoken to "aren't too concerned" with Oklahoma State WR Dez Bryant's somewhat checkered background.

Kiper, who's gathered some legitimate connections in the league of late after alienating them early in his draft analyst career, predicts that Bryant won't get past the Dolphins at No. 12 overall. This is the second straight report in two days stating that Bryant's "off-field issues" are overblown.

Kiper has Clausen going to the Raiders now..

Why Clausen?

“Sure, you could take a left tackle,” Kiper said. “You could take a Trent Williams. You could take a Bryan Bulaga but they went to the Iowa program a few years ago with Robert Gallery, would they do that again? I went with Clausen because I think they need him. I’ve been told the money situation with Russell won’t prevent them from taking a quarterback and I think Jimmy Clausen at this point would be a heck of a choice.”

Price is moving up draft boards and has likely cemented himself as a second round pick. Besides visiting the Cowboys, the speedy wide out has worked out with the Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots, Jacksonville Jaguars, Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks.

One receiver that’s gotten a lot of press as he moves in the other direction is Dez Bryant. We are aware of two teams who have removed the Oklahoma State junior from their draft board and several think Bryant could make a Devin Thomas like drop on draft day.

[TheCount]

So he said neither the Dez Bryant nor Dan Williams will get past the Dolphins at 12? How're the Dolphins gonna pull that one off?
