Who are the draft eligible WR's who have that unique blend of size and athleticism? 6'3"+, 200+, sub 4.50 speed with the body control and jumping ability to be a legitimate deep threat. The prototypical #1 WR.

Seniors:
Aaron Dobson/WR/Marhshall 6'3, 205
Marcus Davis/WR/Virginia Tech 6'4, 230
Rodney Smith/WR/Florida State 6'5, 220
Dan Buckner/WR/Arizona 6'3, 215
Juniors:
Keenan Allen/WR/Cal 6'3, 210
Justin Hunter/WR/Tennessee 6'4, 200
Cody Hoffman/WR/BYU 6'4, 215
Marquess Wilson/WR/Washington State 6'3, 180
Jordan Matthews/WR/Vanderbilt 6'3, 205
The only ones worth mentioning at this point in my opinion.

| Marlon Browne has a chance to be if the signs of breaking out he's shown so far continue. 6'5" 216 lbs with pretty good speed. He was a 5* recruit, but he was raw as could be and he's never put it together before. He's shown some good signs this year as a senior though. Definitely a sleeper, but he has #1 WR upside. |

Good one. I remember when Brown was recruited, I thought he and Green were going to be monsters together. Injuries kept him behind guys like Green, Kris Durham, and Tavarres King. Overall, he hasn't been on the field enough to bring it all together but does have huge upside.

Dobson is a big guy who can just explode, but Hunter is the fastest. 4.48? LOOLOLOOLOLOLOL

I'd say Hunter, Allen and Patterson. The others all have one issue or another.

| Cordarrelle Patterson is my favorite prospect outside the given 1st rnd WR's right now. Curious if he climbs into the 1st. |

Hunter was the first one that came to mind. I am a firm believer that he is the best WR in this draft class.

I'm praying he comes back for his senior year

| Kind of absurd that three of the top five receivers were once at the same school. |
