No Brandin Cooks? I think he is definitely a top 3 receiver in this draft.

 

[RazorStar 4,025]

Cooks is 6th for me, tough between him and Lee... though I may be the only person who likes Lee.

[Dutch 874]

The receivers that I like going to the pros.

4. Odell Beckham Jr

5. Bradin Cooks

5a. Allen Robinson - Raw route runner but amazing once the ball is in his hands.

I honestly don't expect anyone to have a list like mines lol. I really think those guys are going to make some noise in the NFL though. I've become especially fond of Davante Adams lately too. Hope the Eagles draft him.

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

Oh, I like Devin Street as well. Although I guess technically he would be my 6th.

I love Robinson. I have made several post stating that I want him over any other receiver that is within the Eagles reach. He is a big body physical receiver that can beat press on the outside, outstanding leaping ability and attacks the ball at its high point, breaks tackles, explosive after the catch and has elite vision and acceleration. But as I began to watch real film, for the most part I just saw him out jumping defenders for the ball and they did A LOT of screen passes to him. Like I said, he has elite vision and is lethal once the ball is in his hands but that seemed to be where a good portion of his production was coming from. I didn't see him gain a lot of separation with his routes. I still love him though. You mind linking me some tape that impressed you with his route running?

[AllYouNeedIsLovie 377]

I'm shocked so many people are leaving Cooks off their list. The dude reminds me of Steve Smith. He is lightning quick, can still go up and get a jump ball, has great hands and is great in open space.

3. Odell Beckham Jr

4. Davante Adams

5. Jared Abbrederis - Leap frogged his way up here after watching some tape

 

Here is some highlights and film on guys that are in the minority on majority of everyones list.

 

Davante Adams - He's now the first receiver I want the Eagles to get in the 2nd round (use to be Allen Robinson but I still like him). He has amazing leaping ability and high points the ball to catch it beating out defenders, great mitts and catches a lot of receptions and just absolutely electric after the catch. He has the ability to break tackles and make defenders miss with moves.

Jared Abbrederis - I just watched some Jared Abbrederis tape and that kid is an amazing route runner. He understands leverage and sets up his defenders like a pro WR. Looks like he can be a rich mans Jordy Nelson going into the pros running routes like that. He showed he can go up for the ball too.

It's pretty impossible to rank a top 5 with this class of WRs honestly though. There's so many guys, and leaving some off makes me feel dirty. It'd probably be better to rank them in terms of what type of WR they are or what scheme/team they would fit best because man there's so many that can excel depending on where they land.

[BJORN 679]

1. Sammy Watkins

2. Mike Evans

3. Odell Beckham Jr.

4. Brandin Cooks

5. Bruce Ellington

 

Really close between 1-4, just going outside the box at 5 because I really like Ellington, but heavily debated Landry, Moncrief, and Mathews.
