1.06 Baltimore Brown Clowns - WR Cordarrelle Patterson

	In the real world: "Good hands, with explosiveness as a runner with the ball in his hands and as a leaper. Helps his QB. Ceiling of a very good No. 1." - Mel Kiper on his Nov. 28 Big Board. Pronounced core-DARE-uhl (he should get rid of that "e" at the end). Patterson came out of nowhere—oh, OK, Hutchinson Community College in Hutchinson, KS—to post 778 yards and 6 TD's as a junior at Tennessee. He's scary in two ways: Scary good because, as a football player, he's still got room for improvement; he didn't play football in high school until his junior year, meaning he's only played WR for a few years. Check out this highlight video, too. Scary bad in that there's a reason he played juco ball: He's not very smart (was academically ineligible coming out of high school; scored an 11 on the Wonderlic test). Matt Waldman speaks of Patterson's potential here. But ESPN's Christopher Harris says that until Patterson becomes more polished, his inexperience will trump his raw tools (which was the case with Stephen Hill and Brian Quick last year). The Minnesota Vikings drafted him in part to replace Percy Harvin, whom they traded to Seattle in the offseason.
	In the TUFF world: Baltimore may have been hoping for one of the top four RBs in this year's draft--Bell, Bernard, Lacy, Ball--to fall to 1.06 because Michael Turner and Jahvid Best may both be done. But with all four off the board in quick succession, the Brown Clowns turn to taking the best available player. And in terms of upside, Patterson definitely fills that bill. Besides, if you're Baltimore, it's OK if he takes some time to become a more polished receiver--it's not like they're lacking in quality (they have Andre Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald as the top two receivers) or depth (Greg Little, Emmanuel Sanders and Chris Givens fighting for the #3 WR spot).
	Heard on the Draft Cruise: Todd Hansen: "Only a problematic Purple WR has a Twitter username like this @ceeflashpee84" Andy Lothschutz: "Looks like Baltimore snagged Todd's guy." Tim Ozga: "WRs are getting old for the Clowns; it's time to reload." Hansen: "It's a blessing in disguise that CeeFlashPee went before the Slewage were on the clock." Jeff Zamzow: "I was kind of glad the Clowns took the Purple guy too. Made my pick easier. Here's to another crap WR wasted first round pick for the Outlaws. One of them has to work out someday, right?"
