Lockett vs. Cooks

I'd be thrilled if we get Lockett in the 2nd, but I see many mocks that have Lockett dropping into the 3rd round. Meanwhile, last year in an equally deep draft, Brandin Cooks went 20th. Their measurables are awfully similar, and they were both very productive in college. If you read the analysis on Cooks, it looks nearly the same as Lockett's this year.

Cooks went to a great situation, but he was on his way to a very good rookie year before getting hurt.

Lockett - 5'10, 182, 4.4 in the 40
Cooks - 5'10, 189, 4.33 in the 40

Lockett would be a great get in the 2nd IMO, and not just because of location bias. If we get him the 3rd, it would be stealing. I think NFL teams know how good he is and he'll go in the 2nd.
