IF Miami goes WR Rd. 1

I agree - that guy runs like Duper...

Teams under-estimated Duper and what he brought...

We have plenty of that 2 type player all over the place at WR...When oh when Lord are the Dolphins gonna get themselves into the 21st century and blow up the whole damn playing field with a special and unique talent like Cooks???!!!

Evans won't go later than the 10th pick....he's tall with great hands. I like Latimer, but I like Brandin Cooks even more, even if he is just 5'10". Cooks can be our next Mark Duper.

225 is not about absolute strength, but muscle endurance. Shows who put in the time in the weight room to build muscle endurance. He only started playing football his junior year of high school and was a basketball player.

Please, enlighten me on why you believe he should be a day 3 prospect. Everyone I've talked to around the league LOVES this kid. 23 teams just went to his workout in Indy yesterday. He's not getting past San Fran at 30.

When RT is getting sacked on 3 step drops, kinda gard to do anything in any century.
 
Got to love the size and that kids a high riser for sure...uses his body well to box out in the red zone and with that size and body slant routes on off coverage are pitch and catch although he doesn't really separate in his cuts...not sure I see a guy that high points the football lets some balls come to him more than a guy with that size and body should...outstanding hands I think he should use em more to pluck the football...not dez Bryant level hands but very good...tracks the ball well over the shoulder but I wonder if DBS will sit on some of his under routes don't really see the explosion to open db hips and get them bailing may have to work a lot of double moves to get vertical..I agree though would be a very good fit I just don't know if a possession wr with size and red zone abilities is worth a top 20 pick...our unit however needs size or guys that play big though badly...make it easier on the qb

At any rate tons of no later than mid 20s buzz here...

You can see DBS closing when he makes cuts so that would concern me...especially on crossing routes where the db is in a trail position...although I guess if you put it where only he can get it you will be ok...still I would expect some contested balls out if his cuts...guys in his hip

Very immature kid, suspended for the 2012 bowl game, lost playing time for the "throat slash" this year.. Highly inconsistent won't live up to physical attributes. How can you have academic issues when literally every assignment is done for you in study hall?

The difference between 19 to mid 20s is splitting hairs IMO. I think 19 is the highest he should go though. Top 15 is too rich for my blood.. But if you want him you better take him at 19 cus Philly and San Fran are really high on him.
 
1. Nothing wrong with a day three pick.
2. He has had a meteoric rise as work out warrior
3. He is a possession guy and will have issues blowing the lid of defenses
4. Do I think he goes in the first stanza? Sure, but I don't think he is worthy of such a pick.

Well for me it's too rich...not in the top 20...not sure I get the marquise lee is mike Wallace stuff...I get that they run similar routes but one of lees biggest strengths is his precise route running...there's some lack of separation there though...I'm glad you have cooks now as what he will be primarily in the pros...work from the slot

If I saw latimer separate more out of his cuts and better quick acceleration out of them I could endorse top 20...but I dont

There is some workout warrior there.. I'll give you that one. But based off his film he grades as a mid to late 1st rounder IMO. 4.39 40 and 15.2 yards per catch don't signify him having issues blowing the top off defenses. I think he is a good #2 receiver. I'm not saying he's a #1 guy you build your passing game around.

For what it's worth, I think they should take Zack Martin, or Xavier Su'a-Filo. But if they are going to draft a receiver take Latimer. They have enough receivers that are midgets (or play like one)
