Round 7

Either:

Tony Poljan, Tight End, Virginia – 6-7, 265

As a former quarterback at Western Michigan, Tony Poljan made the jump to tight end when he transferred to Virginia.  After a solid 2020, could he be on track to follow in the same footsteps as Logan Thomas?

Or:

K.J. Britt, Linebacker, Auburn – 6-0, 245

The Washington Football Team met with K.J. Britt at the Senior Bowl.  He will need to make the roster as a special teams player and could become a rotational linebacker within a couple of years.  Britt is likely to be a practice squad candidate in his first season.

Either:

Paddy Fisher, Linebacker, Northwestern – 6-4, 240

What a difference one year can make for prospects.  Paddy Fisher was generally considered to be a third or fourth-round prospect after the 2019 season.  2020 was not as kind to him, but he is still a talented linebacker.  Spending some time on the practice squad this coming season and working his way into the lineup over the next two years is Fisher’s best option.

Or:

Brady Breeze, Strong Safety, Oregon – 6-1, 200

Brady Breeze made the tough decision to opt out of the 2020 season, but that was probably a mistake.  He needs the experience and could’ve boosted his draft portfolio for 2021.  Breeze is an in the box safety, but his calling card is not what you may think.  He is a hard-hitting football player and the Oregon standout could carve out a respectable career as a special teams ace.  He also has a really cool name!  Uh, we’ll show ourselves out the door after some final thoughts.
