Surprised Tukuafu didn't get an invite. I know he didn't have a great year, but I would think they'd at least give him a look.

Woah didn't even realize that. Thats a huge surprise. Something against Oregon DEs? Nick Reed now Will? Will is a beast. Makes no sense that he didn't get invited.

All deserving. And I agree, a little surprised Tukuafu didn't get invited, but oh well.

Let's hope Dickson can bump his stock up some. I'd love to see him go first day.

I'm always surprised by the guys who don't get invites, guess that's why they have Pro Days... he should get some looks there.

I'm surprised that they invited walt and not will. Walt has a completely reconstructed knee and is going to be red flagged anyhow.

Personally, I'm not that high on TJ Ward. I mean how many big plays did he make this season?

How many big plays did he give up because he doesn't play pass coverage?

well with only the first round on the first day this year, I don't think that's likely... I think he has a great shot to be in the third round, though, which was on the first day until this year!

Nick Reed's done fine for himself with the halwks, maybe this success will help Will break through

Forgot they made that change. It's gonna be weird with the new draft format.

I'd be happy if Dickson could sneak into the second round.
