Either he, Beckham, or Cooks are the only guys I see us taking if they fall to #27 as far as WRs go
Would fap

If be happy with him as a WR. He obviously can play ball. I worry about his durability, but he was only hurt one year. He has the ability to be a playmaker in the NFL

That knee seems like a chronic thing. I would pass.

If Cooks is gone at 27 I would rather draft a CB in the first and take Landry in the 2nd

Same here. I like Moncrief too.

I watched Lee a lot living here in LA... He's kind of a great route running YAC guy... not really the speed demon everyone says we need. His 40 time was like 4.5 something.
That said, he's a badass and could be a nice replacement for Colston at some point.

1st Rd vs 2nd Rd WR thread went on a long time
Lee Scouting Report
STRENGTHS: Explosive straight-line speed that makes pressing him risky for even talented cornerbacks. Remarkably fluid athlete, capable of changing directions quickly and shows developing savvy as a route-runner, often using a hesitation move and shoulder-dip to get defenders off-balance.
His vision, elusiveness and acceleration make him a terror after the catch, whether as a receiver or returner. Plucks the ball easily and can track over either shoulder. Plays bigger than his size, showing the ability to go up and high-point passes amidst tight coverage and is an attentive, physical downfield blocker.
WEAKNESSES: Possesses a relatively slight frame and struggled with injuries in 2013, raising legitimate questions about his ability to remain healthy against NFL competition. Relies on his natural athleticism to work himself free, at times, rather than exploding out of his routes at the proper depths, showing a willingness to freelance that has led to interceptions for the Trojans.
COMPARES TO: Victor Cruz, New York Giants - Like the 6-0, 204-pound Cruz, Lee lacks the frame to wow scouts but his agility, acceleration and soft hands make him a natural playmaker. It is unknown whether Lee can salsa, but he's a breathtaking talent who should have plenty of opportunities to develop touchdown dances of his own in the NFL.
After taking the Pac-12 by storm as a freshman and winning the Biletnikof Award as a sophomore, Lee struggled with durability in 2013, posting the worst numbers of his career. Nevertheless, he elected to make himself eligible for the 2014 draft shortly after the Trojans' season ended.
Despite only starting eight games in 2011, Lee caught 73 passes for 1,143 yards and 11 touchdowns, sharing the Pac-12's Freshman Offensive Player of the Year with Oregon's equally dynamic DeAnthony Thomas. Exciting as a freshman, Lee was virtually unstoppable a year later, earning the nation's top honor among receivers with an eye-popping 118 receptions for 1,721 yards and 14 touchdowns, while doubling as the Trojans' starting kickoff returner (28.5-yard avg.).
The departure of quarterback Matt Barkley and wide receiver Robert Woods (among others) allowed defenses to key in on the playmaker in 2013 and this focus, along with a nagging injury to his left knee, left him with a disappointing 57 receptions for 791 yards and four scores as a junior.
Lee's build and struggles with injury in 2013 will certainly draw red-flags from scouts but when healthy, his talent is obvious. Further, he's not as polished as his former teammate, Woods.
Few can boast Lee's explosiveness, however, which will almost certainly result in his earning a first round selection come May.

Durability is definitely a concern. I do, however, think he'll make an impact in the league.
He's worth a 1st rder IMO.
On the flip side, it seems this year the draft is much deeper at WR and we can probably get a quality receiver in the mid rds. (see: Kenny Stills)

I cant see him falling to 27 honestly. Id be real ready to fap if he did.

Of the whole CB vs WR question...
Lee, Beckham, Cooks 1st Rd
&
and not a lot of CB fits in the 2nd, Joyner, Breeland, Watkins maybe?
OR
Fuller, Roby, Verrett 1st Rd
&
Matthews, Moncrief, Benjamin, Allen Robinson, Adams, Richardson, Landry 2nd Rd
The supply/demand looks a lot better for CB #27 & WR #58

So was every other receiver coming out of USC. They all suck.

It does, Im just not sold on some of those corners at 27. A first round pick is a very valuable commodity in this draft. Id hate to pick one of those corners you mentioned and then later know that they would've been around at 58.

Give me Verrett @ CB in the 1st and WR in the 2nd.
This draft is stacked with WRs. No need to get one in the 1st.
shite we could probably get a good one in the 2nd and 4th and a Center in the 3rd

Not a fan of Lee. Give me ODB or Benjamin in the 1st and Landry in the 2nd.
Yes, I want a receiver in rounds 1 and 2.
