I've never felt more like RV as I looked at this and thought... how will anyone know he's from North Texas?

Darden is also listed as 2nd string slot receiver behind Antonio Brown. Media really likes him, and I’m glad they know about his talent now!

Brady seems to always love the small slot receiver.....this could be a GREAT fit for Darden.

It was my top place for him to go. Wanted him to get somewhere where the QB can see and throw a guy open with quick, short passes and let them get to work with the RAC. I might not be the biggest Brady fan, but his skillset and Darden's match up perfectly. 

I had a few other places on the list, but TB was #1. Now he just has to work his way up.

Here's the part of the article that talks about Darden:

 

Tampa Bay Buccaneers selecting WR Jaelon Darden (North Texas)

The pick: 129 (Round 4)

Darden's tape is pure electricity. After putting on nearly 20 pounds over the course of his North Texas career to reach 174, Darden broke out as a senior with 74 catches for 1,190 yards and 19 scores. He also added 23 broken tackles after the catch to lead the country.

At 5-foot-9, he's going to be a slot receiver in the NFL, but that's not a bad thing when Tom Brady is the quarterback.
