*****

1. Drake London, USC  

It’s not an easy call at the top, but with his long frame and potential to be a Mike Evans-type player at the NFL level, London has the most upside.

*****

2. Garrett Wilson, Ohio State  

Wilson is athletic, and he's very good at adjusting to the ball and making tough catches. He’s also a dangerous downfield threat.

*****

3. Jameson Williams, Alabama

The knee injury in the title game is unfortunate because Williams was making a case for No. 1 here, but he shouldn't lose any of his dynamic speed.

*****

4. Chris Olave, Ohio State

The best technician in the group, Olave does everything well and just needs to run a great time to surprise some ahead of him. He’s a sure first-rounder.

*****

5. Treylon Burks, Arkansas

Another first-rounder, Burks has the upside to be on top of this list because he’s the most physical of the bunch.

*****

6. Jahan Dotson, Penn State  

I love Dotson, and his lack of size isn’t an issue for me, but he could slip to the second round because of it.

*****

7. David Bell, Purdue

Bell just produces consistently and makes difficult catches look easy, but somehow he just doesn’t pop out as consistently as you’d like. But he will be a second-round steal.

*****

8. John Metchie, Alabama   

Like Williams, his late-season injury will be a question mark, but he could be coveted in the second round.

*****

9. Wan’Dale Robinson, Kentucky  

Arguably the most dynamic and flashy of the receivers, his ability in the return game is beneficial as well.

*****

10. George Pickens, Georgia 

If he didn’t miss most of last season with an injury he’d be battling for No. 1. He’s that good.
