Similar to Edelman. Well because he is white lol, just kidding. Same height, build and speed. Rely on quickness and just a smart competitive football player.

His eye-hand coordination is nuts, lots of circus grab (including the catch of the year last year, ball deflected and he catches it behind his back).

Nelson Spruce reminds me more of Edelman. Not cause of skin tone either. Just a savvy WR that seems to know how to get open underneath for catch after catch.

First 2 are obvious IMO, Treadwell and Mike Williams (pending his recovery).

Boyd is in the top 5 somewhere.

I'd put Doctson in the top 5 at this point.

And probably Pharoh Cooper, he is a bit of a Percy Harvin type player. Just a weapon, get the ball in his hands and he will YAC it up.

Doctson so good

So good at the jump ball

Isnt that what happened in 2011 pretty much? Aldon, Hunter, Culliver, Colin Jones on ST and Bruce Miller all contributed right off the bat.

he was talking about Smelter. However, he forgot to take into consideration that we already had 5 receivers for this season, namely Torrey, Boldin, Patton, Ellington and Simpson. We could afford to pick an injured player.

in order to complete your list a little bit:
Borland, Reid, ADavis, Iupati, Hyde had an impact immediately.

He's probably a day 3 guy, but I like Jordan Payton's game. Strong hands, competitive, good size, good polish

did something change to sway your opinion ? goff sometimes just throws it up in his vicinity knowing lawler can make a catch. hes a TD fade magnet.

I just wish Lawler was as good outside the redzone as he is in it. He's scary dominant in the RZ and that alone gets you drafted but the drop off in his play outside the RZ worries me. Lacks consistency. Will make amazing catches then drop gimmies. Just frustrating. Mammoth hands will attract GM's and coaches.

Lawler doesn't even make your top 11? That's interesting.
