Round 5 • Pick 29
ACQUIRED VIA
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Massaquoi was the preseason Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Year, but stopped collecting awards and accolades after that point. He put an "above average" season on film and is a middle- or late-round prospect. He is hurt by the fact that he is such a tweener, playing defensive end in college at 250 pounds without showing the type of athletic ability that would intrigue a 3-4 team to move him to outside linebacker. Massaquoi's stock will depend on his pre-draft workout numbers -- he could be selected nearly anywhere.

Round 6 • Pick 8
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Asper has shifted between guard and tackle during his career in Eugene, moving inside again as a senior to guard because of team needs. An older prospect who was out of school for two years on a religious mission, his age defines him as a player and prospect. All teams will love his athletic ability and experience playing in space in the Oregon spread-option attack, but some teams consider his age (27) a sign of maturity, while others downgrade him because he is well into his prime. Regardless, Mark would serve well working at either tackle or guard for a team with a heavy zone-blocking scheme where drive blocking and fitting on second level players is key. Look for him to be a middle-round pick and viable starting option early.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Harris started at corner for only one year for Florida State after rotating in nickel packages. He is a transfer from El Camino Community College and has great speed to excel at the position at the next level. He has a ton of experience covering in the slot and should contribute early there at the next level.

Edwards has been a four-year starter and key part of the high-octane Houston offense. He is small but is fast and savvy enough to play right away as a slot receiver in the NFL. He understands defenses and how to sit down in holes vs. zone, making him a third-round talent who could also become a serviceable returner.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Whitney is an early entry junior who red-shirted as a freshman and started only one year in 2011 at Illinois. He played the weakside end at Illinois and would be best served there in a 4-3 defense in the NFL. He has third-round value but could ascend if he times well in pre-draft workouts and continues to show his athletic ability.

Johnson started for four years (five games as a freshman) at cornerback for Iowa State. He has played both the field and boundary corners and is a good lateral mover and overall athlete for the position. He is not a speed guy and can struggle in transition, but he is a strong player and is patient playing both man and in zone. He is reliable to keep his side of the field covered and with his experience, has late third round value.

Gerhart plays true to his name, or at least the reputation that his brother, Toby (Stanford, Minnesota Vikings) has shown the football world in his short time. Garth is a high-effort, big-motor player who has the frame to compete for a starting position at the next level. He should be taken in the middle rounds and compete to start early at the next level.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Egnew is an athletic, tall prospect similar to recent NFL successes in that he is somewhat underweight but creates mismatches up and down the field. A converted receiver, Egnew has struggled with traditional tight end responsibilities such as blocking in-line and being an overall run-game presence. He is athletic for his size and presents a speed mismatch on linebackers and a size mismatch on safeties, which will ultimately define his value in this year's draft. If Egnew runs well at February's combine, look for him to ascend as a high-value mismatch-creator.

Round 6 • Pick 15
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Lindley is an athletic signal caller from San Diego State who has first-round talent when assessing simply his arm strength. The strongest senior thrower in this year's draft, Lindley can make cross-field deep out throws with ease. He is athletic in his pass set and does a good job surveying the field for his second and third reads. His problems have surrounded his judgment at times in games, where can rely too heavily on his "gun slinger" mentality and get into trouble with interceptions and poorly placed balls. On his size and arm strength alone, Lindley should be selected in the late third round to a team looking to use him as a developmental project behind a currently stable quarterback situation.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Jackson is a four-year starter from Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo. While there are a limited amount of prospects out of SLO in the past few years, Jackson projects to be the best. He has strong footwork and understands how to cover in man. The level he has been displaying his skills could hurt him, but there is little denying his speed and athletic ability give him a great shot to compete at the next level, and the potential factor in his game could affect his value from a mid-round pick to even higher.

White is a big and powerful receiver who is an NFL-ready route runner and very polished. He plays with instincts and has good explosion for his size. He could work from the outside or from the slot as he knows how to get open from anywhere on the field. He is the type of prospect that could play immediately and will have little trouble adapting at the next level even though he played collegiately in a smaller conference.

Round 6 • Pick 21
PLAYER ANALYSIS
The man they call "Boom" has been a productive and powerful starting back for Ohio State over the years. He is an extremely physical runner for his size and hits the hole hard. He has production and NFL qualities, but not quite starting potential. He started on and off for three years and was implicated in Ohio State's recent NCAA troubles and forced to sit out the first five games of his senior year. He is an effective slasher-type with third- or fourth-round value. He would need to play special teams to make a 53-man roster and has displayed the physicality to do so.

A classic underweight, tall receiver who has decent agility but is more of a crafty pass catcher who makes plays happen once the ball is thrown to him. Dwight could stand to put on weight before entering the draft, but his speed at the collegiate level was borderline, albeit deceptive, and more weight could hinder his ability to occasionally get behind defenders. He has 3rd/4th round value as a receiver.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Martin is an explosive mover who is quick off the snap to work into his routes. He's been a two-year starter for Michigan State and has been productive running with the ball after short catches. He can take a bubble screen the distance and uses his pure athletic ability to outmaneuver defenders. He is athletic enough to be the superior guy on an NFL field matching up against most DBs. He is a very good speed-variance route runner who can keep corners on their heels and toes. He has fourth-round value and is such a late riser with a solid, productive Big 10 championship game that he could continue to rise into the late third round.

Bradham is an impressive specimen at the linebacker position. He is physically imposing and a strong player who is a feared tackler in the ACC. He will bring a physical presence to the NFL and make big plays early on in special teams. He has speed and has been productive for Florida State, but has struggled to find the field at times and will be somewhat of a project at the next level. Either way, teams will love his special teams ability early on.

Demps has become a big name due to his well-documented straight-line speed that has been displayed on the football field and track field alike. He has won the NCAA 60-meter championship and also cracked the 10.00 barrier in the 100-meter dash. Unfortunately for Demps, he lacks some of the agility and a frame that goes with being a productive and reliable running back at the collegiate level. He doesn't display many natural football movements, and simply catching the ball and running routes out of the backfield are less than average for the league standard. Demps should compete to break the 40-yard dash record at this year's combine, but his lack of lateral agility and durability concerns between the tackles lowers his value; look for a team to select Demps in the fourth or fifth rounds, looking to take advantage of his speed in mismatch situations or in the return game.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Ellison is a hybrid fullback/tight end who could play either role in the NFL. He is the beneficiary of a light tight-end class in 2012, projecting to be one of the first off the board. A bruiser with a punishing frame, Ellison is a reliable blocker both inline and out of the backfield. The same reliability can be said for his pass catching skills, both out of backfield and working upfield. Ellison will likely be selected in the middle rounds of the draft by a team looking for a physical player who can bring a workmanlike attitude to the facility and to special teams.

Graham is undersized (weight) at receiver but has started sparingly throughout his career for North Carolina St. He is extremely fast and that is where his value lies. He is still a developing route runner and can get knocked for being a "track guy" and not reliable across the middle. Nevertheless, his 40 time will be important throughout pro days and the combine, and he could be selected as high as the third round.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Allen is an experienced SEC defensive back who has played the rover position for South Carolina and is a versatile defender. He is very active and plays the run extremely well. Some will question his value as a safety because he didn't play the true safety position in college, but his athletic ability and tendency to be actively involved in every play in the box gives him value to teams looking to add run support. He is somewhat limited in pass defense due to playing so close in the box, but he has third-round value and could ascend from there.

Brown was a three-year starter for the Tar Heels who returned for his senior season after missing 2010 due to a suspension for NCAA violations regarding contact with agents. Brown is a great player in run support who brings power into his tackles and also displays physicality when defending man-to-man in the pass game. He is a quick-twitch player who can struggle when turning to let loose and run on a straight line. He is a bit undersized, but this is less of a concern for Brown than others considering the physical nature of his play. Brown has a tendency to play cautiously to prevent getting beat deep, which can affect his play in zone coverage. He is far from an electric athlete. Expect him to be selected in the fifth or sixth round.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Trevathan is a fluid athlete who is undersized but crafty and uses his athletic ability to make high tackle production. In the right NFL system that can keep offensive lineman off him (likely a 4-3) Trevathan can hit a lane hard and make plays in the backfield. He struggles, due to his size, once blockers engage him and this will likely be his Achilles' heel at the next level. Due to his athletic ability and enormous production he has fourth-round value and could be selected even earlier by a team looking to take a risk on an undersized guy who could contribute immediately on special teams.

He is effective in all areas but not great in any and has third- or fourth-round talent as a big body up front.

Round 3 • Pick 12
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Wilson is this year's big-time question mark at quarterback. Unlike those who have held this title in the past, Wilson is a stellar passer who shows arm strength and accuracy when he is able to deliver the ball without a hitch. A transfer from North Carolina St. over the summer, he has outstanding football intelligence as he picked up the Wisconsin offense in a short time and was the opening-day starter. However, at his height teams will have concerns whether or not he can see to make the throws at the next level. He is a mechanical mover who has strong technique and leadership qualities. If Wilson were three inches taller there would be debate at the top of the draft as to where he fits in, but look for teams to take a flier on him in late rounds to see if he can develop and outplay his size.

He will help himself immensely with strong showings at a Pro Day, and could be selected in the mid to late rounds.

Bolden has a slasher-type style and has been productive against top competition for Ole Miss. He has had team suspension issues in the past, and sometimes looks undisciplined in his play. Once he has the ball in his hands, however, he is a smooth and effective runner who is a fourth-round talent capable of breaking a big play on any touch.

Steed was a three-year starter for Furman. He has decent size for the corner position and is a prospect who relies heavily on his technique to be able to cover man to man. He is a natural athlete who looks smooth and fluid when back pedaling but also can stick his foot in the ground and explode to recover if he loses a step. He can struggle when coming in to support the run and can play too hesitant and cautionary at times. All things considered, his athletic ability and man coverage skills playing press from the line of scrimmage give him value at the position in the NFL. Look for certain teams to fall in love with his ability to jam and stay in tight coverage through man and potentially see his value higher, but the soft nature of his play in run support and zone coverage give him fourth-round value.

Vaughn is a slightly undersized interior defensive lineman who has strong skills and technique to play either a 3 technique or possibly even defensive end in a 3-4 scheme. He has a motor that doesn't stop and has strength to bull through blockers. He is active at the point of attack with his hands and displays an array of moves. A good scheme player who benefits from free lanes and stunts, Meatoga shows up as an athletic big man when pursuing ball carriers. He is active against the run and is able to get to ball carriers and be an active tackler from his position, making him potentially attractive at 3-4 defensive end despite his height. He doesn't have a ton of pass-rush value but should be selected near the fifth round and inserted into a defensive line rotation early.

He may need time to develop into a starter, but he has fourth- or fifth-round value. Teams who are willing to let him develop slowly could find value in him as a guy who could be a starter at right tackle down the line.

He was a productive player for the Sooners who could even make the extreme jump from end to outside linebacker in a 4-3 scheme, considering that rushing the passer is not a key asset in his arsenal. He has fourth- or fifth-round value and should make early contributions on special teams.
