Bryan,
Have you taken a good look at Bryce Brown (RB, Kansas State)? Wes Bunting lists him as a top late-round sleeper at RB. He has some character issues (connections to the Miami problems, but cleared; left TN after one year to join his brother at K-State; and some deva problems in the college signing process) but he has Packer size (6-2, 220), is reported to have decent hands out of the backfield, and has a year in TN’s zone scheme where he reportedly, “looked good.” Has a real “Brandon Underwood” feel with his combination of raw talent and borderline character issues, but he might be worth a late round flyer. Maybe getting picked up in the 7th round would be the wake-up call he needs.
Sorry, listed at 6’0″ 220.
I’m familiar with Brown, but admittedly know little about him. When you’re talking about the seventh round, there’s certainly very little investment and little hurt when a pick like that doesn’t pan out. So he’s worth considering there.
