I've been a Cooper believer for a long time, but White is right there for me. Nobody else is close to those two right now, and I've got Funchess 3rd.
Cooper is still the top guy. White has been extremely impressive, though. This WR class is turning I to a great one.
I think, if everyone comes out that you'd think, it absolutely rivals last year's class. With the difference being that there are more prototypical #1 WR sized prospects between 6'2"-6'5". Cooper/White/whoever else emerges at the top might rival Watkins/Evans, or at least be close enough. Then you're looking for the guys that match up with Cooks/Beckham/Benjamin and I think this class compares favorably there, with talented depth to rival last years as well.
We had five WRs in the first round last year. Maybe we can match that this year if Cooper, White, and Funchess go that high and a few borderline guys like Montgomery and Parker push themselves over the hump. I don't think the quality in the middle rounds will match up with last year's group though. That was a pretty strong class with the likes of Robinson, Lee, Adams, Latimer, and Moncrief all sliding into the 2nd-3rd round.
Well, Louisville finally let the monster out of its cage today. Dyer got the start and is currently sitting on 21 carries for 129 yards (6.1 YPC) deep into the 4th quarter against NC State. It's his first 100+ yard game since 2011. Much-needed too, since his draft stock was on life support after a quiet start to the season.Dyer in pads and warming up for Louisville.

I'm lucky enough to have Cooper but I would trade White straight up with Funchess and I believe before it's all said and done he'll pass Cooper. I've said to before, he's a Larry Fitzgerald clone.
I'm curious why you keep call out EBF?
Passing Cooper is a tall order. It's possible, but I doubt it. I'm curious to see his measurables at the combine. He looks like a player so I'm not concerned. Just curious.
Just a coincidence I think, EBF is one of the more prolific, opinionated posters here and when he didn't mention White in his rankings then, I found it interesting.
Very nice article but I don't see Jeffery with White. Not sure who I see just yet but Jeffery isn't the guy. He's more athletic than Jeffery and not nearly as big.This was a great article. Thanks for all you do Faust.
I see some Fitzgerald in White's play.Very nice article but I don't see Jeffery with White. Not sure who I see just yet but Jeffery isn't the guy. He's more athletic than Jeffery and not nearly as big.This was a great article. Thanks for all you do Faust.
Yea, White doesn't look 6'3". Might be closer to 6'1". I'd say he's more like DeAndre Hopkins. 6'3" guys usually "tower" over DBs on tape and you can easily see it. Guys like Allen Robinson and DeVante Parker.Very nice article but I don't see Jeffery with White. Not sure who I see just yet but Jeffery isn't the guy.

Same here, I've Said It Over And Over again. White will be top 2 taken in the draft. His talent just can't be ignored anymore. People are starting to see what we've been saying since the year started.I see some Fitzgerald in White's play.Very nice article but I don't see Jeffery with White.

There are plenty who see him as a WR. He's best at TE because.....? He used to play there?
So we can't discuss, seems like the growing view is he's a better mismatch at TE which is what most teams try to do, create offensive mismatches. He'll be a nightmare at TE. Either way he's already on my team so I have no choice but to accept what happens to him at the next level but the TE theory can't be pushed to the side because it's growing.
