Colorado WR Scotty McKnight is an interesting prospect, even if he goes undrafted

McKnight, a wide receiver, needs one team to believe in him to be selected in the seven-round draft, which is April 28-30. He's unlikely to be drafted at this point, despite finishing his CU career as the Buffs' all-time leader in receptions (215) and touchdown catches (22).

McKnight was one of CU's go-to players. It can be difficult for players with that status to suddenly discover they still have a lot to prove to NFL scouts.

McKnight was listed as a 5-foot-11, 185-pound wideout by CU. He could measure out slightly smaller than that at his pro-day workout in early March. Even if he's able to put on quality weight with intensive workouts the next few weeks, his size is not what NFL teams are looking for these days at wide receiver.
