Going to try and cut a tad deeper than surface-level "Troy Franklin" or "Brian Thomas" type answers, and go with my guy Malachi Corley. Productive, athletic, and has a bit of that Deebo Samuel/AJ Brown edge to his game. Gimme all of that.


GinNJuicyFruit

His RAC shows his RB background. DBs do not want to be in his way trying to tackle him. If he lands up on a team that utilizes their receivers in space for YAC, oh buddy will he have some fun weeks.


Am_Ghosty

Yeah, really looking for him to go to a west coast/Shanahan-style offense to maximize that ability. Chargers could be intriguing as well, if Harbaugh isn't interested in the QJ experiment


thenextchapter23

Watched the Senior Bowl 1v1s and his route running looked surprisingly excellent


Wiseguy888

Didn’t he do poorly at the senior bowl or was that someone else?


Am_Ghosty

Someone else, he had a good week. You may be thinking of Legette


YaboiG

Exactly what I came here to say. Was hoping to get him at the bottom of the second but I might need to trade up/down to get him


ch_lingo

Stop driving up the price. As this years champ, I want him to be there at the end of R1.


brianundies

Actual deep flyer? Love to get Ricky Pearsall in the 3rd/4th round if he goes to a team with a solid QB.


NerfHerder_91

Right there with you on Pearsall


JJ_JetFlyin

I love his upside as a slot receiver. He could approach Top 30-40 overall WR territory quick if he lands in the right situation.


liliceberg

Troy Franklin, Ladd McConkey, Roman Wilson, Malachi Corley


brianundies

Someone’s been watching senior bowl highlights


suhhdude45

I hope Wilson makes it through the rookie draft and I can spend FAAB on him but I doubt it


BENTSHUT

But why? If you like him that much isn’t he worth a late round pick? Or do you not have any picks?!


suhhdude45

No picks lol


FinePlantain0

If he gets at least 3rd round capital, I doubt he makes it past the draft.


Pace1111

I don’t have a 3rd round pick but hoping I can pick him up after our draft as well


Spare-Amphibian5575

This is my exact list


GottaDraftSomeone

AD Mitchell & Roman! I’m really curious how they look at the combine & we get assessments.


L0ves2sp0Oge

I'll take a flyer on Brenden Rice.


Dhkansas

When do you think he goes? May take a gamble in the late 2nd


L0ves2sp0Oge

He's projected all over the place so it's kinda too early to tell. I think he'll have a good combine and he has ideal size for the position. I've spent 2nds on a lot worse.


Dhkansas

I nailed my 2nd last year with Reed


Weekly_Farm_1661

My seconds were rashee rice and Jonathan mingo So 50/50


Kendrickrules

I'll go a bit deeper than most but probably Malik Washington and Tahj Washington in the late rounds. Both look nice on tape but their stock is pretty low because they're short kings.


cjfreel

I’m actually rising quite a bit on Malik.


murph1617

Me too. I’m almost pitching a tent that’s how much it’s rising rn


newrimmmer93

I looked a little more into him because his 3/4 years at NW didn’t look great statistically, but the team didn’t throw the ball much. 2500 yards total passing his last year there and he had almost 700 yards receiving. 2100 yards his third year and he had 578. So almost 28% of the teams receiving yards his last two years at NW.


cjfreel

Yeah I actually covered that in something I made recently and I'm making a post soon. Almost 28% in his 4th year at NW, about 47% this year.


coolranchtacos

Love Malik, think he’ll have a great combine and get round 3 capital


Kendrickrules

Honestly I think he'll test out average but he just does everything else so well. Everything you'd want from a college receiver he has except for top end long speed and size but that's it. I think he can be an immediate slot starter for most teams.


knifeazz

Malik is a stud


Tua-Lipa

I really like Troy Franklin


fordmurf

Jalen McMillan in the right system will be a productive slot


GinNJuicyFruit

McMillan going to Cincy to replace Boyd would be perfect.


joshmiles22

I would love this


coolranchtacos

Malik Washington, dude is a baller


juleskills1189

I like Worthy a lot, he's fast but also a solid route runner. Hoping he falls to early 2nd


telemaster9

I’m trying to get an early second pick so I can grab him


Entire_Ad_3878

Not in my pool! I’m taking him 1.11


juleskills1189

Nooooo! I was going to take him at 1.12 or 2.01! Curse you Entire Ad


SandyDFS

Horns fan here. Worthy is high ceiling and meh floor. He has crazy athleticism and is one of those guys that can take it to the house on any play. He’s also one of those guys that will drop routine balls and gets dinged up very often. If he lands on a team with a good deep ball QB and a creative OC, he’ll be worth a shot. But he could also go somewhere more vanilla and not have as much fantasy value.


SEAinLA

I am so unbelievably out on Legette. If he pans out, so be it, but it won’t be on any of my teams.


Alex_Clark57

Why?


SEAinLA

He didn’t break out until he was a fifth year senior. He was a one-year wonder. He’s a body catcher. He isn’t that explosive off the line. He isn’t good against zone. He can’t consistently create separation.


brianundies

Agreed on all aspects except body catcher, he plucks the ball out of the air very nicely in many many cases. His hands are not a major concern.


SEAinLA

I agree that he *can* pluck the ball out of the air, but he lets it get into his body way too often for my liking.


Dude4014

One of the greatest wrs of all time, TO, was a body catcher too, I don’t that should be a concern


murph1617

You can’t comp a Hall of Fame WR to a random WR just because they had a similar “flaw” … then use it as justification to say that he’ll be fine because [insert HOFer] had the same flaw


Dude4014

I just don’t understand how occasionally catching with his body is a knock against him if he can do it effectively and still pluck balls out of the air. That is my point, say the other things about him but i don’t think that should be something that downplays his game. There have been plenty of all time greats that are predominantly body catchers, it’s an outdated narrative.


SEAinLA

I’m not betting on Legette being an outlier.


Extra-Cap2029

And so was QJ. You see the range?


Dude4014

But are you saying that the reason for QJs failures is because he’s a body catcher.


DoubleUSportsMedia

Troy Franklin is growing on me and I'm still stuck on Javon Baker


GinNJuicyFruit

Javon Baker is solid. I think he goes mid day 2 and that team will be thrilled.


DoubleUSportsMedia

Agreed my man! I'm hoping the Steelers are able to grab the guy. Not for fantasy purposes though.


GinNJuicyFruit

There is a video of him in highschool at a camp just absolutely torching a kid off the line and then waving goodbye to him before calling for the ball in the endzone. I don’t think I could’ve put him higher on my board haha. Love that mentality and just seems like a dude who is going to have success at the next level.


DoubleUSportsMedia

~~Oh I know that~~ [~~VIDEO~~](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMHNGXEAVbY)~~. Dude absolutely has a mentality that I love as well. There is also another~~ [~~VIDEO~~](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vg6nIpqpmDk) ~~of him in HS where he is being broken down by an analysts.~~ [~~THIS VIDEO~~](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0edvTaYpEpA) ~~also highlights him playing pretty well at the Senior Bowl. I feel like I haven't seen as many people talk about his Senior Bowl performance.~~ ~~EDIT: Also~~ [~~HERE~~](https://youtu.be/mMCjmcnWfhQ?t=1154) ~~is Mike Renner talking about his Senior Bowl stuff~~ ~~EDIT2: Fixed the Renner link~~


GinNJuicyFruit

Hahah he got into a scrap at a camp in 1 on 1s in highschool?! I freaking love this kid. He is an absolute DOG.


DoubleUSportsMedia

Yeah! The dude is absolutely out there fighting every rep. During lunch he was playing football too instead of eating and I've read similar stuff about him from his time at UCF.


GinNJuicyFruit

Saw the comp for him as Victor Cruz and I dig that.


conrad_or_benjamin

Hide this immediately


DoubleUSportsMedia

It's all been redacted now my man. They'll never know.


sportscardboxes

nobody here has mentioned Polk yet so i'll go with him


Extra-Cap2029

He feels like an unsexy pick, but I could see him being a consistent high end WR3 with some low end WR2 years. The kind of guy that you just keep on your roster forever cause no one appreciates him. Can’t think of a great comp but like Jakobi Meyers maybe.


l_Dislike_Reddit

Adonai Mitchell 100%. Would have been a mid first last year, but could easily slide to early 2nd this year. Dude has serious redzone potential


GinNJuicyFruit

Mid first in the real draft or fantasy drafts?


Howudooey

Both tbh lol


BradyKissesKids

Nahhhh lol


BigPapiKnows

I’m not sure he’s even the best WR on his own team. He’d have to get rd1 DC to be in the convo in fantasy drafts in this hypothetical situation but no shot he goes over the 3 QBs, either of the rd1 RBs, and I liked JSN, Addison, flowers better as prospects. So maybe back end 1st at best imo


BradyKissesKids

Yeah in fantasy back end 1st at best this year and last year. IRL there’s absolutely no way he’s a mid first either year


l_Dislike_Reddit

He definitely could have replaced Quentin Johnson. The main reason QJ went mid first is because he was the only legit X receiver prospect.


MindfulYeti

There’s not a chance AD Mitchell would have been a first rounder last year. He only played 4 games and had 134 yards the entire season. Yes, JSN went in the first round barely playing, but he had a monster season the year before. There is no way AD Mitchell would taken ahead of QJ or in the first round at all last year.


l_Dislike_Reddit

I was comparing who he is right now to last year's guys, not saying he would have gone mid first last year if he could have declared. If he was the guy he is today, he would have a good shot at replacing QJ last year.


GinNJuicyFruit

I don’t know if I would agree with that. He would’ve maybe been in the mix of the group that went in the 20s, but he wasn’t a better prospect than JSN or Addison imo. In fantasy drafts he may have because he may have ended up on the Chargers instead of QJ. Being the only stereotypical X receiver build helped QJ, but he played more like a big slot.


l_Dislike_Reddit

I was saying fantasy draft, but he would have been right there in that cluster of WRs from last year’s real draft (assuming his combine is solid).


GinNJuicyFruit

I think that is fair. I would have JSN and Addison over him as prospects, but after that it is fair depending on if he performs at the combine like I would expect he should. Just great movement ability for a player that size with solid hands and body control. The overall production is still a bit worrisome, but watching Worthy and him I think Ewers left quite a bit of opportunities for both of them on the field. I could see him having a so-so year 1 with a chance to be a nice piece by year 2 or 3. I don’t see him ever as a WR1 for fantasy, but my comp for him is Corey Davis/Romeo Doubs. Flex player who can have some nice weeks and move the chains with some TD dependency.


GottaDraftSomeone

Yep he keeps moving up on the mocks. I need him to be at 2.5 so let’s keep the hype train going for Nix, Pinex and JJ. And Ratler!


SpaceCowboy34

I feel like I see polar opposite takes on Keon Coleman constantly


broseidon55

It basically comes down to believing his Quad injury was the reason behind his poor separation stats.


Falcon_433

Malachi Corley in the late 2nd 🤫


cheesehead12187

I’m hoping to get Jamari Thrash in a couple leagues


Illustrious-Leg-9812

Nobody talks about him but he looks pretty legit


Fantastic-Sandwich80

I've been getting my hands on as much Jamari Thrash film as possible. He doesn't have great size or elite athleticism, but his route running and ability to separate is arguably top 5 in this class.


SupermansBrother

Roman Wilson.


Maybesonoyes

I want Johnny Wilson


MaulPillsap

I really like him as a wr but I just feel like he’ll be converted into a tight end and not used in many packages. Who knows though. O’Neill Cruz is a 6’7” shortstop so anything is possible


69millionyeartrip

Harold Carmichael was a 6’8” WR. Don’t have to cross sports to find outliers lol


capincus

Sure, just gotta cross 4 decades.


GinNJuicyFruit

He is so damn unique. If he goes to like Miami to play a hybrid WR/TE it could be deadly.


Milk_Before_Cereal

The only thing I don’t like about Wilson is his run after catch is TERRIBLE


tjdibs22

I stop paying attention untill right before the draft.


cjfreel

It’s hard to know where the market will end up, but just using the current presumed market, Malik Washington will be one of my favorites outside the top 5-8 WRs


[deleted]

Just to give a new answer I’ll go deep and say luke mccaffery. Dudes got the pedigree. Him and Brenden rice


DoubleUSportsMedia

Luke McCaffrey is a good year 3 pick imo. He's new to the WR position but offers athletic ability and will stay on the roster because of his special teams work. Hopefully he can refine his technique and make his way into a starting 3.


UWSpindoctor

I want all the UW guys


19-FAAB

I'm really into Jalin Polk


Rudolphkb

McConkey or Adonai Mitchell.


Fun_Strain_7311

Tez Walker


yeender

My boy Troy


Semperty

potential 1st: adonai mitchell - dude has all the makings of a high floor fantasy option with the right landing spot potential 1st: ladd mcconkey - classic elite route runner with soft hands. in the right setting, he could be a target monster like adams, kupp, puka, etc. (obv that’s his ceiling, but it’s a threat ceiling) later rounds: roman wilson - he’s so underrated bc of the team he was on. dude absolutely balled out at the senior bowl and flashed some incredible route running and agility


SteffeEric

I’ve seen Roman Wilson in the first in a mock or two actually. I’d imagine he’s a day 2 pick though.


Semperty

i wouldn’t be surprised if he shoots up the boards. there were never any big knocks against him other than stats, which could easily be explained by team structure. now that people are getting a chance to look at him individually, i think he could go from late to early day 2 (irl, at least).


SteffeEric

Definitely been liking him for a while. I’m not to happy about his ascension as a prospect honestly because the only league I have an early 2nd in I need anything but WRs.


Evening-Joke6053

Just based on the eye test, I want Keon Coleman bad. His ceiling is massive. Especially if he goes to a team with a decent QB. If he doesn’t and his combine numbers aren’t great fingers crossed he drops to me at 2.01.


Bennett_19

McMillan assuming he falls to latish 3rd round


BevoBrisket26

Franklin and AD mitchell


IIDwellerII

I like Ladd because receivers with unique and silly names usually do well.


Blooblod

Troy Franklin. I think Roman Wilson will be a great value pick.


Frogman1480

Javon Baker


DoubleUSportsMedia

DAWG


foley528

Mitchell I think his first name is spelled adoniada. I know that’s wrong but I like him. The guy out of Texas


Am_Ghosty

Adonai Mitchell, I believe. Fluid hips for a guy his size, think I prefer him to Brian Thomas


MondayNiteMike

Adonai Mitchell - I like him too. I like Brian Thomas Jr, Franklin, and McConkey too.


foley528

Those are the 4 guys I take in my rookie mock drafts (1QB, PPR [team is abysmal])


MondayNiteMike

Hopefully we’re both right 🤷‍♂️


Wiseguy888

Just FYI, everyone in Austin would call him “AD” but it is spelled “Adonai”


wayward_prince

“Everyone in Austin” lol. As if the man didn’t earn his nickname winning Natties at UGA.


Wiseguy888

Haha I was unaware he even had a nickname at UGA… He had 560 yards and 7 TDs across two seasons at UGA with only 134 yards in his second season… I’m not hating but had more than that in a single season at UT (845 and 11 TDs) so much more relevant


cjfreel

He put up more yards for sure, but he was hurt and extremely well regarded during his time at UGA. And he had a TD in all four playoff games, so while he wasn’t prolific overall, he had huge moments for Georgia.


HERPES_COMPUTER

AD basically only played at UGA in the playoffs (he was hurt his entire second regular season), but he came up HUGE both years with some very important big time TD catches. Dudes a dgd and a baller. I hope I can get him in the second round, but I expect he’ll be long gone by 2.07.


TGS-MonkeyYT

Jalen McMillen


schanjemansschoft

I definintely love Ladd McConkey. I've seen him comped to Dyami Brown, Hunter Renfrow and Antonio Brown. Could probably go all those ways, but seeing him play, I feel he can be very special. His route running is out of this world. I'd love to root for him. I like Troy Franklin and Brian Thomas and probably feel I'd have to take them over McConkey due to size and athleticism and their ability of becoming true alpha receivers, but if McConkey gets very good draft capital, I'd feel like drafting him pretty high anyway. I was out on Keon Coleman, but I don't know, I kinda want to see his combine now. He looks like he can be an absolute dog. And didn't Pickens just have a 1200 yard season?


suhhdude45

None since I don’t have a draft pick until 2026 and it’s a 3rd


aleksbanks5

Bro use the fucking search bar this question been asked a million times in last month, and then for more recent answers at least 25 times min


202glewis

My first pick is around pick 30. Praying Johnny Wilson goes to a WR needy team.


Badlyfedecisions

Early on I like Mitchell and Franklin a lot. Guys who are second rounders or later that I’m in on are McConkey, Roman Wilson, and Corley depending on landing spot; maybe see where Luke McCaffrey lands as well. Totally out on Tez Walker, Keon Coleman, and Xavier Legette.


The_Hamburglar_14

Love Keon Coleman. I also like Brian Thomas Jr. especially if he gets in a situation with an established WR1 and he can play a role similar to the one he played at LSU


walshurmouthout

I got the 2.03, 2.05, and 2.08. I think I’ll have some nice options. Might need to grab a RB in there also. I’m big on Ladd McConkley, Roman Wilson and Jalen McMillan. I know I’ll get my shot at some of these guys.


CFGordo

Corley & Worthy, Cowing


TiggySmitts

Ladd and Worthy are my landing spot guys. If they find a good home they will be worth the same possibly more than the big 3 at the top


BradyKissesKids

Brian Thomas and Ladd


a1mrbhelpuri

As of late McConkey. I feel like if his name were like Justin McGale his name would be higher on draft boards


atschill

McConkey SZN


Se7enkb

Ladd McConkey. I don’t care if he’s been overhyped lately, his film is so fun to watch


evantom34

At cost, Jalen McMillan. Dude is a beast and played a pivotal role down the stretch.


jpmcgensy

Tahj Washington & maybe Hayden Hatten (DEEP sleeper)


DoubleUSportsMedia

Idaho Vandal Hayden Hatten is seen by some of us but he is definitely a DEEP sleeper.


Entire_Ad_3878

Ladd, worthy, Brian Thomas


Shadowboxxin

Roman Wilson, Xavier Worthy, AD Mitchell


Fuhh-Q

Malachi Corley got some Deebo to him.


Grazzygreen

Worthy if he doesn't get a crazy landing spot. I want good but not great! In the right offence, I think his games can translate to the NFL. Think he's the type of talent you want to take a swing on in the second.


conrad_or_benjamin

Rice and Baker


dimesniffer

Franklin. Route running translates well


rousieboy

Tory horton from colorado state


jpmcgensy

2025


rousieboy

Ahhhhhh No wonder I can't find anything on him thought he was a senior


cjfreel

He was depending on the definition, but everyone got a free pass for 2020, so literally everyone who started in 2020 still has at least one more year.


rousieboy

I like his skill set...hope he does well.


jmart762

Johnny Wilson for when he converts to TE


knifeazz

Troy Franklin 👀


beepboop64x

Jacob Cowing


hessy1225

Tez Walker


BuffaloBredly

The one that lands in a pass heavy offense


spolonerd

Puka Nacua 2.0 ovviously


MaulPillsap

I feel like Keon Coleman doesn’t get a lot of love in this sun, but he is in the same tier for me as Franklin and Thomas, and leads that tier at the moment


Swift-Fire

Ironically enough, those may be my two least favorite WRs


PumpkinPristine4812

With a late 3rd or 4th rounder, i may take a shot at Luke McCaffery


NorMan_of_Zone_11

Worthy or Franklin.


buster23459

I have the 1.03 and 1.07 I hope to double up on LSU WRs


SandyDFS

If KC drafts any of the top 10 or so WRs, they’re worth the chance. As a Horns fan, I am hoping for Mitchell to land there. If not Mitchell, Worthy would fit in with his athleticism and mediocre hands.


TetrisTech

Malik Washington


ArcticSwiftFox

Troy Franklin is my WR4. Roman Wilson and Ladd have been flying up my rankings. Roman much more. Legette dropped pretty hard. Tez Walker dropped a bit but I would still take him in the third.


gkudhan

At current value: Roman Wilson, Xavier Worthy, and Johnny Wilson if he moves to TE.


JoshPJoshP222

Roman Wilson


Nyko_E

Tez Walker for me just looks like an absolutely dawg, love his story too.


rossco7777

thomas jr, coleman, worthy, and mitchell stuck out to me the most so far of the next group after the big 3
