Exclamation NFL draft is here! What Tigers will get a call?
Good luck tonight for all Memphis Tigers hoping to get a call from the NFL.
I think Gibson & Huff will have their number called. Who else? Will Patrick Taylor get drafted? Claybrook, others?

I say Gibson in the 4th, Huff in the 6th, Magnifico in the 7th. All others go undrafted but Hall, Claybrook, Taylor and Dill get training camp deals.

RE: NFL draft is here! What Tigers will get a call?
After reading what I believe Keeper said, I think both Gibson and Huff get a call on the 2nd day probably 4th. It would be nice to see Gibson sneak up to 3rd. I feel like Taylor's work from 2018 gets him picked up on the 3rd day, probably 7th. Magnifico likely deserves to be drafted, but I lean towards him getting passed on. Others including Magnifico get undrafted free agent deals.

With his 40 time being a bit faster than some expected I think there is little doubt Taylor will be drafted.

It is possible...

But Taylor is smaller than I would have thought

Gibson is bigger than him (228 vs 217)...Maybe he cut some weight to get his 40 down.

Gibson seems to be getting a lot of buzz for a 4th rounder. Hope he sneaks into the 3rd.

With Memphis players, I usually take what round I feel they deserve to be drafted and add 1

McShay:
#119 - Antonio Gibson (#10 RB)
#203 - Patrick Taylor

Gibson will be a steal.

In comparison to the careers of Miller (51), Pollard (128), Henderson (70) I feel like Gibson at 76 might be a bit of a reach, but isn't out of the question. He really came out of the shadows late in the season, or he would've been a 2-3 rounder. But who knows, he might've really impressed a team with his size and speed. Had Taylor not missed the first half of the season due to injury, he'd have been projected much higher. I also was surprised at Taylor's size. He plays much bigger than 217.

Gibson to me will go round 3. Hall will go round 6-7 with Huff going round 7. I do appreciate Patrick Taylor for coming back, but it appears he will be on the wrong side of his gamble. He, along with Magnifico, will be on the outside looking in.

I have a feeling Hall might be a sleeper and could get a call in rd 7. I can see him as a safety or OLB in a 3-4 defense.

seems like you have to have a kid to get drafted in the 1st.

If they don't get drafted, which is a pretty big if for me... Taylor, Magnifico Woodard and Hall will find themselves in NFL camps and being hard to cut.

Gibson and Huff are the two that I think will be steals in the draft. I really do think we could see anywhere from 2 to 6 drafted and 4 to 8 on NFL rosters from this team. I don't know what kind of pro day Claybrooks had or if Dill is pushing for an NFL career or not.

I agree when comparing to college production...

But as far as pure ability I think Gibson is a better prospect than Taylor and Henderson. I don't know if he is going to be willing to take the beating that is required to be a running back in the league though and the knock on him is he doesn't run great routes. If he is willing to run hard between the tackles I could see him being a starting running back in the league.

That's a stretch for me. He doesn't have experience to me at RB to draft him in the 3rd round. I believe he'll go 4th round and teams will use him as a hybrid between receiver and running back. Since he'll go fourth, he'll be a special teams player.

W colt 45,
This Dude is KORRECT, basically what my sources r telling me
However, the Redskins r very interested in Gibson and Hall, possibly Scottie Dill but,
Vikings have a interest in Dill
