Josh Thompson ended up not confirmed or occurring. However, added Tariq Carpenter and Samori Toure....both many will remember I've mocked and discussed what I like. Will just paste in:
Tariq - The hybrid Day 3 LB/Safety is a guy that was used in coverage a lot but is built like a LB. Some say he played as light as 190 at GT, but bulked up more and more in his final year and at the combine came in at 6'2' 230lbs. He has elite level figures for speed and that build at 4.52 forty (1.55 10 yard split), 39 inch vertical is incredible and his broad is over eleven feet. His shiftiness isn't his strength but the speed and burst makes up for it. You want to drop down box safety that cannot be manhandled by TEs in coverage or even blocking at times, Tariq is that unique situational sub package Safety that can easily be used by Barry - especially if he excels on STs as nearly everyone feels he will. He's a safety built like a light LB, that has vertical of a CB...and faster than nearly any TE he could be tasked with covering. Overall RAS is 8.91
Samori - A small school transferred to Nebraska to bet on himself against higher competition and it paid off. On an abysmal team where he was arguably their only WR threat he continued to perform and put up solid figures. Finishing the 2021 campaign with 898 yards on 46 receptions (that is 19.5 YPC) and 5 TDs. That was after his 2020 campaign at Montana where he put up 1,495 yards on 87 receptions with a 17.2 YPC and 13 touchdowns! I'm very curios to see how he runs and what his other measurables are at the Nebraska Pro Day as we have no data yet there...but look for where Toure if he is available in the 5th on...I think this kid has "it" and could be the poor man's Lazard of the future should Lazard just simply not be affordable at his tender level. His RAS results if curious overall were 6.11. His forty isn't bad at 4.48 but of course isn't burner speed, vertical is lacking and broad is above average. His only elite measurable is the 3 cone which he excelled at for a 6.77 time.
