My wish list for a receiver, in order, if we choose to go that route in the first round -
A) Troy Franklin - I think Franklin is a superior MVS in nearly every metric and exactly what we need opposite of Rice. Just feels tailor made to be in this offense.
B) Adonai Mitchell - Mitchell intrigues me. Not the burner Franklin is, and I'm not sure he's the type of guy Reid/Viotch are looking for, but his hands and route running ability can't be discounted. Would love to know his splits.
3) Xavier Worthy - his speed and game breaking ability are exactly what Reid seems drawn to. He's just so tiny, it gives me pause. *EDIT - he's taller than I thought he was, but still on the slim side.
BONUS - Keon Coleman - he'd be strong in this offense alongside Kelce and Rice (but you can say that about a number of young receivers in the draft this year).
