    On the forum of my other pro team, I made the predictions that Keanu Neal, Sean Davis, and Matt Judon would be draft steals. While the steal aspect didn't hold up, as they were drafted much earlier than I had anticipated, they all show a lot of promise in their rookie seasons.

    Any players which may be under the radar to most, and look to be an extremely good value at their forecasted draft position qualify as a steal. Robinson proved he can find talent anywhere in the draft, so taking a look at the later rounds is important.

    I'll start with UConn Safety, Obi Melifonwu. He's 6'3, 215 lbs and has a legitimate Chancellor-esque frame. Predicted 4.53 speed. 118 tackles and 4 INTs in 2016 (88 and 2 in previous year). This tape is all I have to go on, but I saw good closing speed, a solid tackler who can lay the wood, and some surprising ball skills in man coverage (though he was flagged once)

    I've evaluated 47 guys so far. I'm not deep enough yet to mention anyone a "steal", but I'll come back to this thread when I do lol

    Most people couldn't name even half of that number of players who are eligible, so any input would be insightful. A steal doesn't have to be a Tom Brady, just someone-such as Sterling Shepard- who obviously translates to the NFL with little doubt, or someone who has massive potential but falls because of inexperience, etc.

    for where I've seen his projections... Jourdan Lewis

    some say his size pushes him to mid sec to early third...

    He is a first round talent imo. Tremendous cover ability.

    Probably don't qualify as steals but Marshon Lattimore is my #1 CB

    David Njoku will be a beast

    Dan Feeney is the best OL in the draft

    I also think Tre White has the ability to really outperform his draft slot if he goes on Day 2
