North carolina, lsu, and Clemson have some real nice WR situations going on right now. Looks like it could be a special class at wideout ... some serious size and talent there.
 
Isiah Ford can play. I never realized he was 6'2" though. He's so shfity I assumed he was shorter.
 
Hopefully Juju can break the USC curse of recent years where a WR has a breakout sophomore year and then injuries derail his junior year.

I hope that USC breaks the curse of being the most overrated team in college football every single year. Less so in the past few years, but still ...
 
i know he hasnt an opportunity to much yet after transferring from NC State but keep an eye out for USF JR WR Marquez Valdes-Scanting hes been killing it at practice and its a break out player candidate for this year..
 


When I created this thread in May, we hadn't seen John Ross play football since October of 2014. Even then he was a raw speed, thin framed receiver who still needed a lot of development, as was primarily just a vertical threat. He had 5 career TD catches when I created this thread, and only 1 of those 5 even came against PAC-12 competition. Conversely, he had 3 career kick return TD's that came against a top 10 UCLA team, and the other 2 in Bowl Games. Thus, why he was most dangerous on kick returns.

Ross has developed as a receiver, but his leap in production as a receiver is mostly contributed to playing with Jake Browning, who is probably the best NFL prospect playing quarterback in college football right now even though he's not eligible until next year....and victimizing the worst pass defenses in the country. However, Ross is still in the Desean Jackson mold as a receiver at the moment. Thin framed and still primarily just a vertical threat with blistering speed against terrible defenses in Idaho, Rutgers, Oregon, and Cal. That's 10 of his 14 touchdown catches right there, and over 50% of his yardage in those 4 contests.

He still needs further development, but should be in the top 5 or 6 here right now.
 
KD Cannons stock has to be up After tonight's cactus bowl. Looked like a man playing with Boise (see what I did there)
