PLAYER POS. SCHOOL HEIGHT WEIGHT 40 TIME ROUND

Tyler Boyd* WR/KR Pittsburgh 6-1 197 4.58 2-3

Talented and polished receiver averaged 24.4 yards per kickoff return in three seasons and also was an occasional punt returner, with a touchdown in 2013.

Roberto Aguayo* K Florida State 6-1 204 n/a 4-5

A three-time first-team All-American, and one of the best kickers in college history. Has a big leg, hitting 88.5 percent of his field goal attempts, and could go early on Day 3.

Cyrus Jones CB/KR Alabama 5-9 196 4.49 4-5

Competitive but undersized cornerback who will likely be picked in the early part of Day 3. Returned kickoffs and punts at Alabama, though with no touchdowns.

Riley Dixon P Syracuse 6-5 219 n/a 5-6

Big, athletic punter with a booming leg. Averaged 43.7 yards per punt in 2015 and was chosen to participate in the Senior Bowl.

Paul McRoberts WR/PR SE Missouri State 6-1 202 4.58 5-6

Good-sized receiver who had 940 yards and nine touchdowns in 2015. Also a shifty punt returner who averaged 11.57 yards per return with a 69-yard touchdown last year.

Ross Martin K Duke 5-10 185 n/a 6-FA

Chosen to kick at the Senior Bowl, he was 45 of 51 on field goals the last two years, and showed an impressive leg with three 50-yard-plus field goals in 2015.

Jamie Keehn P LSU 6-3 205 n/a 6-FA

Three-year punter for the Tigers was a team captain in 2015, averaging 40.7 yards per punt. A terrific athlete who was a high school national champion javelin thrower in Australia.

Morgan Burns CB/KR Kansas State 5-11 201 4.40 7-FA

Returned four kickoffs for touchdowns in his college career, tying the Big Ten record and earning first-team All-America honors in 2015. Return skills could earn him a late-round draft spot.

Deandre Reaves WR/KR Marshall 5-10 180 4.53 7-FA

Had three kickoff returns and one punt return for touchdowns in his career, and added 705 yards and four touchdowns receiving in 2015.
