Per Scott Bair of NBC Sports, “Frank Smith went to bat for Foster Moreau….kept telling his bosses Moreau was worthy of a draft pick despite pedestrian college receiving totals.”
Now, this is not to say you should be drafting him, but he has the possibility of filling a much bigger role than was expected if Waller fails to live up to expectations.
Hunter Renfrow, WR — “Papa,” as some called at Clemson, is looking to take over as the slot receiver for the Raiders in the near future.
The Athletic’s Vic Tafur believes that he might actually win the job because, even though he does not look the part, he keeps getting open and making catches.
The 5-foot-10, 185-pound, Hunter Renfrow is not going to win any beauty contests or decathlons but he may be a late-round flyer for the future.
