Jared Wiley –TCU 

Wiley is even bigger than Cupp, but he moves like a receiver. Although he ran a rather lackluster 4.80-second 40-yard dash, you have to expect he’ll go quicker before the draft. Wiley is 6 feet 7 inches tall and 255 lbs., so his catch radius is huge. That explains why he was used almost exclusively as a pass catcher at TCU. So, he’ll need to work on his run blocking. 

Wiley is projected to be taken in the 6th round, so he would be a very low-risk pick if the Patriots did select him. It all depends on if they think they can improve his blocking skills.
