So, we're all talking about rounds 1-2, maybe 3.

Let's talk about guys in rounds 4-7 at WR.

Xavier Hutchison, Iowa St.

Has good size, decent size hands, and very average speed. Could turn it up in the NFL, though.



Jalen Moreno-Cropper, Fresno State

Cropper has the type of game that could be effective in his first year, but it's most likely that his best football days are ahead of him.



Derius Davis, TCU
Small, short, and really fast. A guy like Davis could actually be what many envision Turpin to be, imo.

He can obviously return, but I'd say he might end up being a decent receiver, with an all-pro ceiling.


Dantay Demus, Jr., Maryland


Demus has the body type and athleticism of some of the greats. Reminds me a little of Julio Jones.



Tre Tucker, Cincinatti

Scott is the WR everyone talks about in Dallas, but Tre Tucker also has something he could bring. Obviously, a slot guy. But he should be worth a look in the later rounds for some team.


 
Gotta say I like Derius Davis for TCU. Gives us the return guy which is also a guy who can play as the speedster on the outside or the slot. My biggest issue is Dak doesn't like playing the one on one 50/50 catches with the possession WR which is CD's wheel house. Taking CD from the slot takes away his elusiveness unless you have a speedster defenses fear. While I like adding Davis to play for us, I think it would take a year or two to see how great the combo of those two can be with Gallup. Are we win now or still building?
 
Unless one of the top three WR falls in the first, I’m thinking the best option is to trade for a veteran.

I’d still spend of our many late picks on one.

Depth would be

Lamb, Vet FA, Gallup, Tolbert, Fehoko, Turpin, Rookie
 
Im taking Hyatt round 1 and not looking back. We need someone who could take the top off the defense.
 
I like Matt Landers from Arkansas as a sleeper. 6’4 200 with 4.37 speed. Former 3 star recruit who committed to Georgia. Later transferred to Toledo after not getting much playing time, and then to Arkansas as a senior. 47 catches for 901 yards (19 YPC) and 8 TD’s last season. He’s a serious deep threat with the height and jumping ability to make tough contested catches. Always fights for extra yards and is a YAC threat. Needs to learn how to fight through press coverage and route running could use some nuance, but there’s a ton of potential there.

Like them all but not sure I’d consider any of these guys sleepers as they’ll get drafted in the midrounds.

Sleeper to me is more late round guys no one is talking about.

I just mean later round, UDFA prospects..
 
My sleepers:

Nikko Remigio - Fresno State
-Slept on slot option with RAC ability.

Shaq Davis - South Carolina State
- Perimeter WR. Best HBCU WR.

Keylon Stokes - Tulsa
- Really good player being slept on.

Antoine Green - UNC
- Deep threat, developmental project.
