Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............
With the Colston news and all and reading about the state of receivers, I had to skip DE but will get to that afterwards. Here are the current top five projected in my preferred order.
1. Obviously we know he's at the top. And honestly it isn't close. He lacks some speed, but is tough and all the other receivers are either short or lacking in muscular build. He's not a Cooper or Watkins however, but for us he'll suffice. 2.Josh Doctson vs Minnesota (2015) | Draft Breakdown Josh Doctson vs Texas (2015) | Draft Breakdown Josh Doctson vs Kansas State (2015) | Draft Breakdown Josh Doctson vs Texas Tech (2015) | Draft Breakdown This was one I wasn't expecting to see. He almost made a case for the top because he did look more quicker than Treadwell. However, he's not in the SEC, he's less than 210 pounds(Wiki has him 190, CBS has him 201). But he could work with us because he's not going to be the number 1 receiver that draws defenses and if he does that frees up Cooks. He is 6'2(wiki has him 6'4) that's one positive, and according to DB he drops some passes. But again, he was the top option at TCU. He got hurt last year so there's that concern. If Treadwell does not fall to us, he may be someone we should try to get in 2nd round. 3. Small sample size, and looks quick. But he's 6'0. The only negative and that's a big one. He does not benefit us over Doctson. 4.Corey Coleman vs Texas Tech (2015) | Draft Breakdown Corey Coleman vs Oklahoma State (2015) | Draft Breakdown Corey Coleman vs Kansas (2015) | Draft Breakdown My issue here is similar to Fuller, he's short in stature. He looks quick in that Baylor offense. But Big 12 competition can be deceiving. He's also possibly inury prone. I'm staying away. 5. He wasn't even the number 1 here. So he lacked targets, and didn't break away well from defenses either. He also cannot pass block. But we should know never to draft an offensive player from a Meyer system. Draft Round 1-Treadwell Round 2-Doctson Do Not Draft Round 1-Coleman Round 2-Thomas Round 3-Fuller |

On the flip side his routes tree and discipline running it need some serious work. Freaking spread offense effect rears it ugly head yet once again. The ability to beat press/Bump and Run coverage are a weak point. With that said I can still see him going in round 1 but upside and football IQ? Is there enough there to justify the pick? I fear he may end up being another Robert Meachem.
