With four rounds left in the NFL draft Authentic Cassius Marsh Jersey , there are still plenty of gems left to be unearthed.

The draft concludes with rounds four through seven Saturday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The most interesting player still left on the board is Central Florida linebacker Shaquem Griffin, who had his left hand amputated when he was a child.

Griffin was a star for the unbeaten Knights last season and then lit up his combine workouts, running a sub-4.4 in the 40-yard dash. He is undersized for a linebacker in the NFL at 6-foot and 227 pounds, but his athleticism and tenacity will likely earn him a spot. Where is to be determined.

Six more intriguing players available heading into Day Three of the NFL draft.

Maurice Hurst, DT, 6-1, 292, Michigan

Hurst was an All-American and one of the most productive defensive players in the country last season. No FBS player received a higher grade from Pro Football Focus, the analytics website that reviews film of every game and grades every play. Hurst had a heart condition discovered during the combine that has apparently scared away teams. He is also undersized for a tackle with short arms 鈥?though there were similar complaints about All-Pro Aaron Donald coming out of college. Hurst is not at that level as a prospect, but if his health is OK, there is little doubt who is the best player still available.

Tyrell Crosby, OT, 6-5 Calvin Ridley Jersey Elite , 309, Oregon

Crosby is a steady run blocker who might be better off at guard, but he is also a player who many evaluators viewed as not far off many of offensive linemen already taken. The Packers have the first pick of the fourth round and could use help along the offensive line.

Kyle Lauletta, QB, 6-3, 222, Richmond

After five quarterbacks were taken in the first round, only one went in rounds two and three (Oklahoma State's Mason Rudolph to Pittsburgh in round three). Who is the next quarterback to go? Maybe Lauletta from an FCS school. Physically, Lauletta doesn't jump out. His arm is OK. But he played well against better competition in the postseason and is accurate with good mechanics and decent mobility. Mike White from Western Kentucky and Luke Falk from Washington State are the other quarterbacks most likely to be drafted Saturday.

Antonio Callaway, WR, 5-11, 200, Florida

Callaway has had a litany of off-field issues and could go undrafted because of them. But he also has first-round talent. Will some team take a chance? There are other good options left at receiver including Clemson's Deon Cain, who also had some off field problems in college though nothing compared to Callaway Eagles Dallas Goedert Jersey , Daesean Hamilton of Penn State, Equamimeous St. Brown of Notre Dame and Keke Coutee of Texas Tech.

Nyheim Hines, RB, 5-8, 198, North Carolina State

There is no shortage of talented running backs left, but Hines might be the most interesting prospect still on the board at that position. He's not an every-down back at that size, but Hines was a dominant do-it-all speedster who led the Atlantic Coast Conference in all-purpose yards last season. He could contribute returning kicks and be an interesting addition to a creative offensive team. More traditional runners such as Tennessee's John Kelly, Alabama's big Bo Scarbrough and Arizona State's Kallen Ballage are just a few of the other running backs likely to go in the fourth and fifth rounds.

Josey Jewell, ILB, 6-1, 235, Iowa

Jewell was a tackling machine and All-American with the Hawkeyes, the type of linebacker that is easy to envision having a 10-year career as a steady two-down player. Micah Kiser from Virginia and Tegray Scales from Indiana also fill that bill. All are likely to be gone by round six.

Miguel Cabrera’s season is over. The Detroit Tigers will have to try to get through the next 94 games without their veteran slugger Authentic Royce Freeman Jersey , starting on Wednesday.

Cabrera suffered a ruptured left biceps tendon while taking a big swing in the third inning against Minnesota’s Jake Odorizzi on Tuesday. He’ll undergo season-ending surgery in the near future.

“He feels really bad. He feels like he’s letting people down. There’s a guy who’s a warrior,” manager Ron Gardenhire said. “Total respect for that man. He’s a (heck) of a baseball player. Hopefully, we can somehow get through this thing and get him back playing.”

Even before Tuesday’s devastating injury, Cabrera had trouble staying healthy this season. Cabrera missed three games in late April and early May with a biceps spasm. He returned for one game, then spent the rest of the month on the disabled list because of a hamstring strain.

“We’ve got to try to help him get through this thing,” Gardenhire said. “It’s a very sad day for our baseball team. He’s a special player, a special person to have around here. That’s a blow. I felt terrible when I saw him do that.”

Backup catcher John Hicks becomes the team’s starting first baseman in Cabrera’s absence. He’ll likely start there on Wednesday during the second game of the series.

Minnesota will send out their ace, Jose Berrios.

Following a stretch of four starts in late April and early May in which he gave up at least four earned runs, Berrios has overpowered the opposition. He’s won four of his last five starts while posting 44 strikeouts.

He went the distance on Thursday against the Chicago White Sox, holding them to two runs on six hits while striking out 10 without a walk.

“I felt healthy,” Berrios told mlb.com afterward. “I got quite of few pitches — fastball, curveball, changeup — working. That’s what I used the whole game.”

Berrios (7-5, 3.66 ERA) collected a victory at home over the Tigers during that stretch Chargers Authentic Jerseys , limiting them to two runs on three hits in eight innings May 21. He’s 3-1 in six career outings against Detroit despite an 8.49 ERA. Tigers catcher James McCann has been a tough out for Berrios, hitting two home runs with seven RBIs in 11 career at-bats.

Left-hander Matthew Boyd, arguably the Tigers’ most consistent starter this season, will oppose Berrios. Boyd (4-4, 3.20) has notched two wins and a no-decision in his last three starts.

He survived Boston’s potent lineup in his last outing on Thursday despite some control issues. He limited the Red Sox to two runs on four hits in 6 1/3 innings but also issued four walks and threw three wild pitches.

“As the game went on, he got more comfortable,” Hicks said to the Detroit News afterward. “The mound in the bullpen is flat and the mound in the game is steep. It’s kind of an adjustment once you get out there. But once he settled in, he had all his pitches we could to go to in any count.”

Boyd has pitched against the Twins more than any other team. In 12 career starts, Boyd is 5-3 with a 4.01 ERA.

Twins leadoff man Brian Dozier has been a thorn in Boyd’s side, batting .406 with three doubles and three homers in 32 career at-bats.
