Mustangs in the NFL Draft -- call it

[Higher Authority]

How many Ponies get picked. And in what round?

James Proche: 5
Delontae Scott: 6

[PonyPride]

Kelvin Beachum is a free agent — and the Jets just drafted a tackle

[Lefty]

4 - Proche
7 - X Jones

Fitting that a pathetic frog goes to the pathetic eagles.

[Lefty]

Hahahaha

[JasonB]

Proche 4.

[EastStang]

What's the knock on Proche? Certainly not his hands. Is it his speed?

[indianmustang]

James 5th round
others FA jones,scott

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

No Ponies in the first round.

I wonder if we will see Proche go today?

[JasonB]

What's the knock on Proche? Certainly not his hands. Is it his speed?

He projects as a slot receiver, and those don't have as high value as an outside receiver. Plus this draft is loaded with high quality WR. Not a knock as much as depth and position.

[PonyPride]

Right — this draft has been called the deepest ever for receivers, which doesn't play into Proché's (or any other receiver's) favor. He didn't run the 40 at the Combine, but his strength (20 reps on the bench) and shuttle numbers were good. Helping him is the fact that his tape from his senior year is literally a highlight reel — so many one-handed catches that some analysts have said he has the best hands in the entire draft. If he drops lower than any of us think he should, I'd say it's a reflection of the flood of receivers — quality receivers — in the draft.

Proche 4th round

[ClickClack]

Proche rd 5
Scott rd 7

[Vitale]

Proche in 4th.
ESPN just named him one of the best available players.

[Charleston Pony]

Would not be surprised to see Tampa grab Proche in 5th or 6th round. Another sure handed slot for Brady. I expect several of our guys to sign FA deals and for some to head to CFL. C.J. Sanders could be an impact guy on a slightly larger field in Canada.
