Summary
ESPN NFL draft guru Mel Kiper, Jr. held a conference call today to preview next week's NFL Combine and here's what he had to say about some of the prospects out of Western New York:
On UB and St. Joseph's WR Naaman Roosevelt: A heck of a player, but the big question is speed. He's got huge hands and was a productive player at Buffalo, arguably one of their best players. But the speed issue is going to determine whether he is drafted or he's not drafted. He's a fifth to seventh round if he runs decent and he's a free agent if he doesn't. I think he can make a team. People forget that [Cowboys Pro Bowl WR] Miles Austin went undrafted out of Monmouth after having a great combine workout and a heck of a career at Monmouth. That's not Buffalo. Buffalo is obviously a I-A program, but this kid Roosevelt, the speed issue is going to determine if he is drafted or not drafted. Either way, I'd want him on my team as a late-round pick or a free agent.See the full content of this document
