Yup day 2 lock imo. He will be a steal.

Great to see Royce go on day 2! Even though I don’t care for the Broncos, it actually might end up being a good place for him to get some touches.

Rad and Oderinde did not help the players out when it comes to getting ready next level. Crosby's biggest knock right now is his strength which in 2 years time is not going to be an issue but this season it will and so I think because he's not viewed as a potential early Starter he's fallen but shouldn't land too far down in the 4th. A lot of analysts put him as one of the best available today.There was a play at the Senior Bowl where Ogbonnia Okoronkwo got into his chest and pushed him back and I think that's the concern teams have right now is his play against stronger players.

Sounde more like injury concerns. He had a broken foot as a Jr, and people are worried about a big man with bad feet. Ie Bill Walton.

Crosby finally got picked in the 5th round by Detroit. Have no idea why he slid so far down after being projected to go yesterday in the 2nd or 3rd round.

He certainly slid a ton, I hope we find out why, but lots of O line players went before him. Congrats to both Freeman and Crosby, with Crosby's ability to play both left and right tackle he should stick.

Ex Duck Carrington has not signed anywhere?! Must be serious character issues...
Tennessee should pick him up to pair with Mariota... ;)

I've seen it said that with the number of players who dropped late into the draft or all together may be a result of teams getting more picky with their draft board and taking more players off of it. His problem is also going to be that he's never been an ace Special Teams player and if you're a fringe roster player at WR, you've got to excel at ST.
