    Sleeper WR- Chris Hannon- Tennesee

    6'4" 205lbs. Fast 40's and looked very good in his drills. Consistently ranked near the bottom of everyone's list because of low production. I looked at positional rankings and he was never in the top 30 and as far down as 52.
    He could be a day 2 steal unless someone thinks his combine was good enough to be a 3rd round selection.
    People are saying that this is a pretty thin year for wide outs, but what I am seeing is a healthy amount of bigger, possession types that play faster than their 40 time.
    Hannon was a surprise with his speed. I think he's a better prospect than Peerless Price was.

    Re: Sleeper WR

    You need to give me a little more help, Andy. I looked on one list (NFLfans.com) and couldn't find a receiver named Hannon. Where did he play? Do you have a first name? Any combine numbers?
    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

    I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

He has the height, speed (4.31 over 40 yards) and leaping ability to be a star-quality pass-catcher once he develops consistency.

            Thanks Dozer....I was just coming back to provide more detail...dunno how I left so much out...I was looking on the ticker for his 40 time. I knew it was in the 4.45-4.49 range.
            The one thing I did notice about Hannon is his hands. Possibly the softest I have seen from all the WR prospects. He didn't really slow down much on his drills and looks like he can play at high speed as well.
            Mike Hass ran slow, but he was at full speed in whatever he was doing. While some receivers slow down in order to concentrate on catching the ball, Hass does not have to do this, and Hannon did ever so slightly. A few of the fast 40 guys slowed down in their drills.
            Hank Baskett looked just okay and didn't strike me as the sharpest tack in the box.
