Luke Easterling's Draft Analysis:

Forum: Talk Bucs | Special Report: NFL Draft
Top 10 WRs


1. Devin Thomas, Michigan State - A great combination of size and speed has kept Thomas’ draft stock rising steadily over the past month.
2. Malcolm Kelly, Oklahoma - Despite a sub-par pro day workout, remains one of the best all-around receivers in this class.
3. Limas Sweed, Texas - A wrist injury is causing concern, but when healthy, is a nightmare for smaller defensive backs, especially in the red zone.
4. Early Doucet, LSU - Nothing spectacular here, but a tough, consistent player who is fearless over the middle and has exceptional hands and route-running ability.
5. DeSean Jackson, California - Great speed and return skills, but his lack of size will hurt him at the next level.
6. James Hardy, Indiana - Great size and speed, but has some character issues.
7. Mario Manningham, Michigan - Runs smooth routes and can stretch the field.  Enjoyed great success in the red zone and can win jump balls.
8. Andre Caldwell, Florida - Great speed and agility, but carries some durability concerns.  Will be a threat in the return game, as well.
9. Earl Bennett, Vanderbilt - Exceptional hands and dangerous after the catch.  As tough as they come over the middle.
10. Donnie Avery, Houston - Blazing speed, but needs to spend more time on the other aspects of his game.
