Why not give Colt Lyerlaa chance? He's got the talent (but his brain is apparently "abby normal"). Here's an interesting take on the kid from Rotoworld.com:

 

There are a ton of reasons not to trust Oregon TE Colt Lyerla, but on talent alone he may be the best tight end in this draft.

 

Lyerla is on par with anyone in this class in terms of athleticism. He has excellent speed for the tight end position and great agility and burst for his size. Lyerla does not have a ton of experience running routes, but he is smooth and quick enough to gain separation. He has all the speed necessary to threaten the seam and has the body control and ball skills to be a threat in the red zone.

 

Lyerla played running back in high school, and you can see that in his game as he is the best of this tight end group after the catch. Lyerla obviously has the size to run over people, but he also flashes some lateral agility you would not expect from a big man. He used these skills to average 5.8 yards per carry at Oregon.

 

All of these impressive skills come with the huge caveat that he may never actually see an NFL field. He missed a game in 2013 due to what his coach called “circumstances,” missed another for violation of team rules, quit on his team halfway through the season, and was convicted of cocaine possession in December of 2013.

 

That is a bucket full of issues and may be enough for him to slide out of the draft all together. If he can clean up his act, however, Lyerla has the talent to be an impact weapon in the passing game and an impact player in fantasy football.

Would love to take a chance on an undrafted Lyerla. Another player I'd like is DE Jackson Jeffcoat...can't believe he hasn't been taken.

And that did not even mention his now famous twitter quote... B-)

This site has Alex Neutz from UB signing here....Jay Skurski of TBN has Neutz going to the Bengals.

 

Edit: his Twitter has him retweeting a couple "Welcome to the Bengals" tweets. This site is wrong,fellas.
