Before Winston played his first game at fsu, I read an article about how he'd been working with a qb coach since he was young. The article had notes of him as a preteen diagramming defenses and coverages.football iq always was a strength for him, to go along with field vision and accuracy.

Maybe he is good on the board. But even that doesn't always translate to the field. Dude threw 18INTs this past season. 


Over half of those were more his receivers' faults. Tipped passes/bad route from young inexperienced WRs.

Very possible. He's got an undeniable skill set and body. If he weren't a knucklehead in his early years he'd probably be top-15 lock.

Although I will say one bad thing is that his route tree is very underdeveloped. He basically has the vertical 9 and that's almost it. He's going to need to get more polished to be successful at the next level.

Kevin White is a freak. 4.35 40? Sick at his size.
Video appears to show Amari Cooper beating Kevin White in the 40. NFL 40 times suck. (The reporters have the names wrong. Cooper wore #9, White #43, D. Parker wore #35, and is the last one across.)

Watch the film. LINK

Kevin White is bigger, faster and stronger than Amari Cooper. He also has a better vertical leap and displays just as good, if not better, hands. IMO, Amari Cooper is the more polished wide receiver right now, but Kevin White's ceiling is much higher. I know who I would draft first.

I don't like falling in love with workout warriors. That said, both are studs who should have very solid NFL careers. However, where they go will have a bigger impact then their skill set.

I'd take Cooper. Amari is meticulous and it equals production.

As it was pointed out in the article, Manziel was killing it in the interviews last year too


Well maybe Manziel's story would be unfolding a little differently if he actually had the talent to be an NFL QB.

Sammie Coates kind of reminds of Kelvin Benjamin... just not as big.

definitely quicker though.

It really is a decision based on if you value the more polished guy, or guy with more upside.

Thing is, in this case, the polished guy is also athletically amazing, and the guy with higher upside is also pretty damn polished.

None of that polished/overachiever and potential but too raw shite. These two guys could absolutely be destroying the NFL soon.

Being an Alabama fan, I take Coop. It's impossible for me to be unbiased even though I'm trying. If I'm a random GM, I let you take whichever one you want and I ecstatically take the other
