Interesting fact: Tee Shepard is actually almost nearly deaf, though he says it never impacted him on the field.

Simonise is the only one who interests me and I'd only look at him after the draft.

well if we were gonna spend a draft pick from next year now would be a good time as we are projected to get a few extras

(at least compared to other years with no extras coming in it might cause them to look ...  But how many rookie WRs can we want?)

from what im hearing the bengals are interested in Rashaun Simonise.........WR......Calgary (Canada)

and will attend his proday on Thursday...

We took Simonise after no one made an offer on him. It cost us nothing. Nice.

So he's a Canadian who had lousy grades, but that's the only reason he's in the supp draft -- no marks against him for character issues or anything (well, bad grades could be a character issue, but it isn't a legal issue or something like that). Dunno if he makes the 53 but it doesn't hurt to have him at camp. And maybe he makes the PS and then the roster in a future year.

He's a guy who has good measureables, speed, and some experience with the position.

With that said, he's pretty unpolished and never really had to greatly improve things like footwork because of competition.

He has upside, but that's about it. Chance to make PS
