I have the following.

Strong- 1st rd
Bennett- 1st-2nd rd
Humphris- 4th rd
Koyack- 4th-5th rd
Hodges- 2nd-3rd rd
Mannion- 5th-6th rd
At a glance, this all looks very well put together, AB.. nice job. I'm not going to hijack or post a thread with mine, but if you wanted another to compare yours to (as I like to do with others), feel free to pm me and I will send the link to it.

He dropped two full rounds for me. I get the feeling he is the next Stephen Hill. I wouldn't touch him in the 1st 2 rounds.

The combine killed him. Totally exposed. I find it more telling when a guy drops because of the combine rather than ascends. Agree, untouchable in the first 2-3 rounds.

Interesting. What are you basing that on, AB?

I am surprised that after the combine, Jaelen Strong didn't jump DGB in the rankings. Kiper has moved him below Perriman, Smith, Dorestt and Funchess. The more I hear about these guys and their work ethic, I become more interested in Strong and Smith. The one thing we can't measure is their dedication and Antonio Brown isn't who he is without his endless work; the same goes for all of the best at their position. Thus is one of the reasons I was hoping for Jordan Matthews last year and why I haven't given up on Patton.

I enjoy reading your lists and trust your input more than my own. I prefer Strong and Smith at this point, and hopefully one slips to the second. I'm also fine with a trade back in the first for either

I know his 40 was 4.4 something, but I expected him to be faster, and he just seems inconsistent to me too much. Not impressed with him as I once was.

I love Strong. But I have had DBG as my #4 WR for a while, and couldn't drop him down. Strong moved up, I like him in the mid 1st, maybe if we can't get White or Parker, and DGB is gone then move back a few picks and get him and an extra 3rd.

I hoped for Matthews last year too. Even more now after he had a good rookie seson. And Patton was among my top 5-7 WRs in 2013, I always liked him, just needs to get PT, if not it seems like he is doomed to be an inactive or ST guy.

I love Devin Smith, I can see him ending up late rd 1. Dorsett had a great combine IMO, and that's a reason he rose up so high for me. Funchess I love, I knew he wouldn't run fast, as he isn't a speed guy, he is a tough WR/TE. I can see him being either in the NFL, depends on who takes him.

On topic of WRs, I couldn't justify dropping Cooper below White, I love Cooper, he has been my top WR all season, so I view him and White now 1a and 1b they are that good IMO, and I can't really decide who I would take if I was Baalke. If both were there, idk what would happen.

Agreed. Definitely did not answer those questions about his hands at the Combine.

Yeah, like I said I see Stephen Hill written all over him, I only out high as he is due to his potential. Hopefully he doesn't bust like Hill has.
