Hope flies under the radar that way we can possibly take a look at him in the later rounds. Kid looks polished

If he happens to be there with our 2nd round pick and we don't take him he will be gone before our next pick.

I tend to agree

wish he would have had more throws his way today during the senior bowl, but the entire passing offense was lackluster. He did however, get plenty of opportunities to show he may be the best route runner in the draft and was one of the best performers during practices. I think overall he jumped 10 draft spots from early 3rd to late 2nd, but i still believe he is a true late first early 2nd talent.

Eagles QB Carson Wentz worked out with Cal WR Chad Hansen and Eastern Washington WR Cooper Kupp.

Eagles fans rejoice. The team will add multiple receivers this offseason, likely in free agency and via the draft. Hansen is still growing into his game, has great after catch speed and projects to the outside. Kupp dominated the slot in college and will fit that same role in the NFL. Both are day two types.

Get that Jarvis Landry vibe from him where you just know no matter where he goes he is going to find a way to contribute and be successful.

Cooper Kupp struggles in tests of athleticism

Eastern Washington WR Cooper Kupp managed a 4.62 forty-yard dash at the NFL Combine.

A star at the Senior Bowl, Kupp was exposed as a sub-par athlete in Indy. Measuring in at 6-foot-2, 204 pounds, Kupp ran slow, managed a disappointing 31-inch vertical, and showed a distinct lack of lower-body explosion with a 9-foot-8 broad jump. Many tight ends in this class will beat Kupp's athletic marks at much higher weights. At one point discussed as a potential first-round pick, Kupp realistically profiles as more of a fringe second-/third-day selection.

This. I'm hoping he falls and we can pick him up later (with our 3rd).

I am not surprised Kupp testing poorly in some of the events at the combine. However, what I saw during Senior Bowl week is someone who consistently finds separation in his routes. After he ran his slow 40, I said that I expected him to run a quick 3 cone, which he did at 6.75. Short area quickness, clean routes and football smarts. I like his prospects a lot.

Do you see him as a slot receiver in the NFL? He's 6'1 3/4", but he has the arm length of a much smaller player (31.5"), isn't a great jumper, only weighed 204 and has better quickness than speed. We re-signed Kerley and added Goodwin, so slot isn't a big need for us.

The Jordy Nelson comparisons prior to the combine were absurdly ambitious.

I had watched him play college ball for 3 years and wanted to draft him soon badly. I hate that he went to a division rival. In so many mocks people had us taking Zay Jones over Kupp and would just guessing with me that Jones was just a better receiver overall and that Kupp was a tier lower than Jones. Now with the 2017 season finished I still stand that kupp is a better receiver than Zay Jones and I would love to have him. Hopefully some of them Jones fans have realized that Kupp is the better receiver.

Yeah I was pissed when I saw he went to the Rams.
