6. Amari Cooper, WR (Alabama)
Amari Cooper is a standout wide receiver from the almighty Alabama Crimson Tide. Cooper is a sensational wide receiver and if it weren’t for Kevin White, he’d be the top receiver in this draft class.
Cooper is a precision route runner who has rare polish for a draft prospect. He understands coverage schemes and how to exploit them. He snatches the football out of the air, at its highest point and he is a greatly instinctive runner when he has the football in the open field.
Cooper put up big time numbers with Alabama. He is without a doubt one of the most special players I have ever had the pleasure of watching in college football. It is hard not to respect how amazing Cooper is.
The one knock on Cooper is that he has a tendency to drop the ones he shouldn’t. He will catch the improbable and he will from time to time drop the one right in his hands when he is wide open. Other than that he is a perfect wide receiver.
