  Draft Scout by Conference









  As expected, wide receiver JD Spielman was granted his immediate eligibility request by the NCAA, sources told the Star-Telegram. Most believed the former Nebraska receiver would be granted the waiver since he joined the program this summer and it became official on Tuesday. TCU remains optimistic that LSU transfer Marcel Brooks will obtain a waiver as well. That decision is expected soon, possibly at some point next week. Coach Gary Patterson raved about Brooks' versatility as a defender last week, saying the former five-star prospect can play pass rusher, linebacker and even safety.

Spielman, meanwhile, brings a veteran presence to the wide receiver corps and is also an option to return punts. Spielman has earned preseason recognition, including being named to the Senior Bowl's Top 250. Patterson said Spielman had been "in and out" of practice in recent weeks, but "when he's out there, he's starting to learn. We just need him to get more reps." Spielman had three consecutive 800-yard receiving seasons for the Cornhuskers, leading the team with 49 catches for 898 yards and five touchdowns last season. He is the son of Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman. - Fort Worth Star
