Kevin White WR, WVU

Oh man.

Beat me to it. Kevin White has the total package and is a day one starter. He was my original first choice at 15 however with the possible retirement of Justin Smith,I switched to Danny Shelton. We can't lose either way, however I will say this, as much as I'd love a receiver with Kevin White's ability, we all know it's not a necessary ingredient to win it all. We also still can get a serious burner later on the draft. I hope Kevin White is available at 15, along with Danny Shelton, Carl Davis, and a top O-lineman, just to see what Trent Baalke is prioritizing.

He's not slow. He has enough speed, size, and ball skills to make plays down the field.

I don't put his ability to challenge vertically on par with a AJ Green or Julio Jones. He's not a Top 6 prospect like those guys imo, but I'd be stoked if we took him somewhere between 10-15. Might have to trade up to grab the WR we want this year.

IMO, if all of those guys are there, Baalke trades back ~5 spots, picks up a 3 (or 2 in 2016), and picks whoever is left.

That would be incredibly stupid. After those five picks there won't be any of them left. No way in hell they last to 20

I agree. Take an impact player. And the best thing is it will likely be at a position of need.

There are 4 players listed there. If Baalke has them all valued the same, he can trade back, accrue draft capital, and get a player fro the group of equal value. I said ~5, because I think it's possible that Baalke might value a couple other players comparably to those listed. If he doesn't, the about 5 would be closer to 3 or 4. You can still call it incredibly stupid if you want to, but Baalke usually goes up if he values a guy significantly above others, or he goes back if he values several available players the same.

He keeps jumping up the board so I doubt he will drop to 15, but we can hope! Last i checked White, Shelton and Parker were all gone by #12...

all those posts...have any of them been intelligent?
Think he will definitely be gone by #15, people probably see a higher upside with him than with Cooper.

Oh man.

Walters Football prediction is about a 4.4 at the combine. They're predicting a sub-4.4 40 for Cooper. If either of these players are available at 15, you've got to believe Baalke will give them a long look.
I think he's the first WR taken come draft day. Quote me on it.
