NFL Wide Receiver
Prospects
Dez Bryant (R)
- Cowboys - Bryant missed the
majority of his senior season for NCAA infractions and has
character concerns, but their is no question about his talent.
At 6-2, 220 he has the perfect mix of size, speed and athleticism
to be a top NFL receiver.
The best receiver in the draft went to one of the best team-situations,
the Dallas Cowboys. The only question for Bryant is how
many looks he will get with the likes of Miles Austin, Roy
Williams, Jason Witten and others surrounding him. He will
be hit and miss week-to-week, but could top 1,000 yards
by seasons-end.
Demaryius Thomas (R)
- Broncos - The 6-3, 230-pounder
has the size to dominate in the NFL. He is not a burner,
but has adequate NFL speed. He is a bit raw and may need
a year or two to blossom. He will battle possession receiver
Jabar Gaffney and veteran Brandon Stokley for the starting
job. His growth in training camp will show if he has fantasy
value in 2010.
Devin Thomas - Redskins
- The acquisition of veteran Pro-Bowler Donovan McNabb propels
all the Redskin receivers up a notch. Thomas will compete
with wide receivers Malcolm Kelly, Santana Moss and tight
end Chris Cooley for looks, but with an aging, injured Santana
Moss, Thomas, second-round pick of the 2009 draft, has a
chance to become the new #1 receiver in Washington and top
70 catches and 1,000 yards in 2010.
