Darius Slayton – New York Giants – 78 overall (+10)

Darius Slayton was one of the NFL’s biggest rookie surprises last season. On a Giants team that desperately needed help at receiver, the fifth-round pick emerged as a top option for the G-Men.

Slayton recorded 48 receptions for a team-high 740 yards and eight touchdowns. He could very well be the Giants’ top receiver again this season which could mean another big ratings jump for the former Auburn wideout.

Duke Williams – Buffalo Bills – 67 overall (+4)

Duke Williams had a tumultuous and brief career at Auburn but the talent was clearly there. After spending the beginning of the year on Buffalo’s practice team, Williams was promoted to the active roster.

In four games, the 6-foot-3, 225-pound wideout made a solid impact with 12 receptions for 166 yards and one TD.

John Franklin III – Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 62 overall (+3)

A big-time JUCO transfer QB, JF3 never really got a chance to play under center at Auburn. That hasn’t stopped him from making the NFL.

An athletic freak, Franklin has moved on from playing QB and has played both cornerback and receiver in his brief NFL career.

He only played one game last year for Tampa Bay where he rushed the ball one time for 11 yards but he is listed at WR on the team’s roster.
