2.08 Tampa Bay Meat Goats — RB Chris Polk

In the real world: Polk, a promising ballcarrier from Washington, was heavier at the Senior Bowl (224 lb.) than he was during the 2011 season, and his draft stock started falling at that point. Even though he lost 9 pounds between that game and the Combine, Todd McShay said, "He doesn't look the part physically... His body is unimpressive." At the Combine, he had a 4.46 in his first 40 at the Combine but a 4.57 in the second, which made me wonder about his conditioning: Was he still too winded from the first 40 to do as well in the second? Mike Mayock said that a degenerative shoulder condition was why he went undrafted, and he has already had two shoulder surgeries.  Polk had noted sports surgeon Dr. James Andrews look at the shoulder and Dr. Andrews wrote a letter stating that the surgery had caused some scarring, but nothing that should prevent Polk from playing football.

In the TUFF world: This sets a new record--the earliest point at which an undrafted free agent has ever gone in the TUFF Draft (previously held by Tennessee for taking LeGarrette Blount at 2.10 in 2010). It's also the first red X I hand out in this Draft Wrapup (which I'm sure Paul Granholm will vehemently disagree with). I don't get why anyone would take an undrafted free agent like Polk in Round 2 when he has to compete with second-year pro Dion Lewis and 7th-round pick Bryce Brown for touches behind McCoy. Then there's the conditioning issue and the shoulder issues. Why not WR A.J. Jenkins? It's not like the Goats are loaded at wide receiver.

3.08 Tampa Bay Meat Goats — QB Nick Foles

In the real world: The best QB in the history of the University of Arizona goes to Philly to be a developmental prospect under Michael Vick. Todd McShay reviewed film of his senior season and said he was impressed with how he fared under pressure. But Scouts, Inc. cohort Kevin Weidl disagreed, saying that poor decision making, lack of athleticism and tempo were minuses. Mel Kiper, who rated Foles as the fourth-best QB available in the draft, says Foles could stand to be more consistent both in terms of accuracy and decision-making. Mike Sando: "Foles struggled with his throws, particularly on post-corner routes. Coaches appeared to advise him on his deep-ball trajectory after Foles overthrew Arizona teammate Juron Criner on an early deep pass. Foles put too much air under subsequent deep passes. He did not hit receivers in stride on those balls." Cecil Lammey (footballguys.com, 102.3 ESPN Radio in Denver) slammed Foles, stating that against Colorado, he threw 3 picks against a Buffaloes secondary so riddled with injuries that they had to start running backs. However, there were high winds in that game, so maybe the outcome was more decision making-related than talent-related. Besides, he improved year-to-year on completion percentage and yards per attempt, and these are improvements you want to see from any QB you draft.

In the TUFF world: Carolina, you can't say you didn't see that coming. Tampa Bay's QB depth was compromised when Tim Tebow went from Broncos' starter to Jets', er, 20-snap-a-game gimmick player as fallout from the Peyton Manning free agent saga. Paul Granholm passed up Ryan Tannehill in Round 1 and missed out on Tannehill and Brandon Weeden in Round 2, but got one that gets to work under noted QB guru Andy Reid, who has brought out the best in Donovan McNabb, Michael Vick and Kevin Kolb.

4.05 Dallas Junglehawgs — WR Marvin McNutt

	In the real world: McNutt went to the Philadelphia Eagles in Round 6. He played QB in high school but converted to wide receiver in his first year at Iowa. Last year, he had 82 catches for 1,315 yards and 12 TDs.
	In the TUFF world: He may be 5th in the Eagles' pecking order now, but I liked how he often came through for Iowa when you least expected him to.
