Draft insider Tony Pauline reports that Mississippi State QB Tyler Russell "put on a passing clinic" in a private workout for the Patriots, Packers and Chiefs on Thursday.
"His deep passes were on the money and Russell was also accurate with short and intermediate throws," Pauline wrote. Because Russell's senior season was ruined by a concussion and a torn labrum, he may not be drafted. However, the 6-foot-4, 221-pounder has intriguing tools and is a decent developmental option due to his size and arm strength. Pauline adds that running back LaDarius Perkins was a "beneficiary" of the workout because he "really impressed scouts with his pass catching skills." Apr 25 - 7:25 PM
Packers - backup is Matt Flynn of LSU
Chiefs - Alex Smith & Tyler Bray of UT & Chase Daniel of Mizzou
Patriots - Ryan Mallett is the backup
I could see Tyler competing with any of those once placed in a pro-style system & surrounded with pro-style WRs. Really hope he can latch on with a team.
