I've heard he could go on the second day. Whichever NFL team drafts him in the second round will get one hell of a deal.
Check out his reaction time at 7:35. http://draftbreakdown.com/video/brandin-cooks-vs-hawaii-utah-2013/
While not as fast, Cooks has comparable quickness to Tavon Austin. Also like Austin, some question his size. Whatever.
Unlike Austin, Cooks has some receiving ability - like running routes and catching.
Upon reconsideration though, I believe Austin and Cooks don't compare favorably at all. The former has more physical gifts, while the latter has more receiving ability. Austin can juke people out of their shoes and run really fast; Cooks gets open and catches the ball.
I believe Marvin Harrison serves a better comparable to Cooks, although, again, with less physical gifts.
