Everyone saying Beal could get taken with a 2nd in the supplemental must be banking on a desperate team going big with slim pickings.
Phillips was the better college player last year, true. But Beal is considered by the "experts" to be the better NFL prospect -- he's bigger (6'1" v. 5'10"), younger by a year, projected to play outside, and he's a converted WR who has only played CB for two years. So he's got the potential that draftniks love.
That said, I doubt anyone will use a 2 on him. Teams are notoriously stingy when it comes to supplemental picks.
