10. player. 833. . . . Josh Ali, Kentucky

Charleston Rambo and Josh Ali could be available if the Eagles add a wideout sometime in Round 6.

Former Kentucky Wildcats star Josh Ali could stand to put on some weight for the next level. He’s five-foot-eleven, and he tips the scales at 187 pounds which means he could grade out as a slot receiver at the professional level.

The stat line isn’t the most impressive (41 receptions for 601 yards and three touchdowns), but don’t let that fool you. He was a solid second option at the wide receiver for Kentucky all season long behind Wan’Dale Robinson, and he picked up another 13 yards on three rushing attempts, reaching the end zone once more with his legs.

. . Charleston Rambo, Miami. 9. player. 834.

After four seasons in Norman with the Oklahoma Sooners, one as a redshirt and three on the field, Charleston Rambo transferred to the Miami Hurricanes for the final season of his career at the NCAA level. He was solid despite playing with decent but only mildly impressive quarterback talent in his only run in South Beach.

In 12 games with The U, he racked up 79 receptions for 1,172 yards and reached the end zone seven times. He earned a Second-team All-ACC nod for his efforts.
