    - Senior Bowl Executive Director Jim Nagy noted on Twitter that he had been scouting Thompson for the annual all-star game. Rapoport reported that Thompson is expected to be selected during the supplemental draft.

    - 48 catches for 916 yards and 11 touchdowns at Nortland Community College
    - Clarington committed to the University of Texas coming out of high school but he was ruled academically ineligible to play for the school and spent his college career at Blinn Junior College and Northland Community College.
    - Clarington will host a workout on July 8 at Miami’s Southridge High School.
    When is the supplemental draft?
    The supplemental draft has been held on the second Wednesday of July in each of the past two offseasons. If this year’s supplemental draft follows the same timing, the selection process will take place on Wednesday, July 10.
    Cullen seemed to indicate through his Twitter announcement that July 10 would be the date of the supplemental draft.
    Recent History:
    Only eight players have been selected in the last 10 supplemental drafts. Of those eight players, only wide receiver Josh Gordon has made the Pro Bowl.

    I like Thompson and I would put in a 4th round bid on him. He has potential starter written all over him.
