3.15 Tampa Bay Meat Goats - WR Rashad Greene

In the real world: Greene was a steal by the Jacksonville Jaguars in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. He seemed to always come through in the clutch for Florida State (in the 2014 BCS National Championship game, when the Seminoles needed to go 80 yards in 79 seconds to win, Greene had a 49-yard reception to set up the winning touchdown). He's presently 5th in the pecking order for passing targets (behind the Jags' trio of second-year receivers--Marqise Lee, Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns--and TE Julius Thomas). However, if Lee and Hurns continue to drop passes, Greene could climb up the depth chart sooner than later.
In the TUFF world: As you can tell, I love this pick. Greene is a clutch player who had more receptions and yards than Kelvin Benjamin in 2013.  As I mentioned back at 1.15, the Meat Goats needed depth at wide receiver, and they finally addressed it here.
