Jaelen Strong/WR/Arizona State: I was cool towards Strong entering the season as I saw no single distinguishing skill in his game yet the junior has put together a string of dominating performances in the early going. The latest was against USC in which Strong caught 10 passes for 202-yards and 3-touchdowns, the last score being the game clinching 46-yard Hail Mary. Strong is not a true deep threat but catches the ball well and wins out for contested passes. I’ll hold final judgment until his true size/speed numbers are recorded but must admit Strong has definitely improved his draft stock this season.
Josh Harper/WR/Fresno State: Harper entered the season stamped as an early round prospect and thus far the senior has lived up to expectations. His numbers during the Bulldogs victory over San Diego State included 5 receptions for 76 yards. Harper has performed well against top competition in the early going including USC (6 receptions), Utah (6 receptions) and Nebraska (9 receptions). He’s accounted for almost 30% of Fresno State’s receiving production and is presently graded as a third round prospect.
Sammie Coates/WR/Auburn: Despite struggling with a knee injury Coates has excited scouts with his big play ability in 2014. Sized well, the junior plays strong as well as fast, winning out in battles but at the same time beating opponents down field for long gainers. He tallied 4 receptions for 144-yards (36-yards per catch) with one score in his most recent effort against LSU. Coates is fluid on the field and deceptively fast. He has the physical skills and upside to develop into a second receiver for an NFL team.
