Knox - Draft
- Thread starter bgr28
- Start date
I have heard on some of the game broadcasts that Ball could be a 4th rounder but nothing about Knox or Beckett. Anybody heard what their chances are?
I can’t blame any of them and wish them the best. This is a meaningless game after the implosion we experienced.

I've seen Ball as high as the fourth round in one mock, to Kansas City if I remember correctly... Beckett is probably going to be an undrafted signing. He will have to make his way by working his ass off, playing special teams, etc.
Knox is the interesting one. In an era where running backs are a dime a dozen, I could see a team taking a late round flier on him. His issue is that he lacks elite top-end speed, so he needs to really show well in other parts of the game – pass pro, catching the ball out of the backfield, yards after contact, etc.

And where does Knox have any experience in catching a pass out of the backfield?
Good for him! Maybe if he would have been fully utilized this year, he might have come back. But right on cue, Doc lights a dumpster fire at the Joan late in the season and smokes out our best players and burns the season!
Congrats to the coach of the year!

Though few and far between he has been thrown too and had good success doing so. Which makes it even more frustrating that Doc and Crapsey don't do it enough.

Wanted to know some thoughts on expected draft. I felt that Darius Marshall was going to make the NFL but that didn’t happen. Knox has overall game like Bradshaw with his catching ability. Are people seeing Devon Singletary?
From what I recall the Bucs really liked Darius, but he failed a pre-camp drug test. I remember the Jets being really high on him during the season. I think had he come back instead of being and idiot he could have been drafted.
I don't know if I would compare Knox to Bradshaw. Knox doesn't have the speed that Ahmad did.
Knox is a fine back, he is not Bradshaw. He’s much more Tallifero. Those two were very similar.
Darius failed a COMBINE drug test.
He left early which seemed to be a head scratching decision at the time. He then got a combine invite which is a big deal and helped justify his decision somewhat. Then blew his chance over freaking weed.
