My only issue with White is that he doesn't appear to have great speed, takes him longer than you would want to eat up a DB's cushion and that's going to make it harder for him to get open at the NFL level.

Very. I hope the Kevin White hype continues and Cooper falls to 10. We could jump up that high and get the next Marvin Harrison.

Cooper has also had a monster season so far, though he was under 100 yards for the first time against Ole Miss. Sammie Coates finally showed up in the stats column. 4 catches for 144 yards and 1 TD. He only has 9 catches on this season and isn't Auburn's high volume receiver right now. His teammate, Duke Williams, only had 2 catches for 28 yards against LSU. He has more production on the season though, 25 catches total, 395 yards, with 3 TDs. |

If you wanted a replacement for Bowe as a guy who can move the sticks consistently and be trusts in the redzone, with just enough speed to threaten deep, Kevin White is probably your guy, just judging from what I've seen so far this season.
He has more speed than Jaelen Strong and Louisville's Parker I think. But he's just as good, actually maybe a little better, than either of those guys are at high-pointing and coming down with the ball in traffic. I've also seen White create separation much more consistently as well. Strong always seems to have someone sticking close to him and can't seem to consistently shake loose of his defender. Other guys to keep your eyes on in that regard is Duke Williams from Auburn, Austin Hill from Arizona, Deontay Greenberry from Houston, and Kasen Williams from Washington. White is the best of the bunch though, from what I've seen this year. As for a WR that perfectly fits Reid's system, that has to be Cooper by far. |

Give some props, OldSchool, for Coates' performance yesterday.
C'mon. Let's hear it. |

He had a pair of really nice grabs down field, one went for a TD.
That was a nice grab with the DB, I believe it was Jalen Collins, trying to go over the top and deflect it and another DB, don't remember his number, bracketing underneath, Coates showed great concentration and reeled it in, kept his balance and walked into the endzone. Second big catch was also with the DB draped on his back, used his body like Bowe would and shielded him out for the completion. It was nice to see Coates put those on tape against DBs who are going to be pros at the next level. |

Here's a kid that I don't really like, and it's not just because he's a Furd.

He was terrible against ND. His lack of effort cost an interception on a contested catch against Cole Luke and although he has a good straight-line speed, he is slow in his breaks and does not change direction fluidly.

at this point, if we're anywhere near Amari Cooper in the draft, we should use a pick to go get him

Agreed, he'd be a perfect fit for Reid's system. However, it might require way too much to move up for him, and we have too many holes on the roster to lose a bunch of picks for 1 player.

Amari Cooper is untouchable unless KC drafts in the top 5.
