Trio of Arkansas WR's

[krazyllc]

I was looking for some opinions on what round the trio of Joe Adams, Jarius Wright, and Greg Childs will go in the draft? Which you think will turn out to be the best?

[vidae]

If used correctly I think Joe Adams could be a star.

[SenorGato]

I hold out hope that Wright is the next L. Coles. Only real issue with him is his tiny baby hands, but otherwise I really like this player.

Adams reminds me of Jeremy Kerley, a WR from TCU the Jets drafted last year. I think he's got more raw speed/explosiveness though but no numbers in front of me.

Both Wright and Adams should be gone by the 4th, maybe the 5th at the absolute latest.

Childs had some good workouts but still think he should be around in the 5-6 range. Lots of upside, but not a high floor IMO.

Jarius Wright has the potential to be the best. His burst trumps the other two, and while Adams may be a bit more shifty inside, Wright has superior ability to separate downfield.

Adams I like, reminds me a lot of Earl Bennett, but with KR ability. Similarly to what was said above, in the right system he could be a great target inside.

Childs, on the other hand, I'm not a huge fan of. 6th or 7th rounder at best, maybe he'll hang around as a #5 for a few years but not a real ton of long-term potential here.

Let me qualify all of the above by saying, like any prospect, their success all hinders on where they go, how they are coached, and how they are used in their respective systems.

Greg Childs will make people regret passing on him. He's going to be a stud in a year or two.

[Don Vito]

If Childs can stay healthy he could be a legit NFL receiver. He has all of the tools and has proven that he can produce, he just got banged up a lot in the last season and a half. Adams could be a huge pice to an NFL offense if he is brought into a situation where his abilities can be utilized properly, he has a lot of veratility and game breaking ability but he has his limitations too.

Wright has the ability to be a gamebreaker in the NFL. He reminds me a lot of Mike Wallace coming out of Ole Miss, a little raw but the vertical ability he has gives him the chance to be a stud. Tyler Wilson losing these three and his coach really, really sucks for him.

Nice to see the Jarius Wright love....Along with Marvin Jones he's the reason I could not possibly care less about the non-Blackmon high WR picks....I usually am a bigger fan of guys like Floyd, but for some reason I'm not on that wagon.

[tjsunstein]

I like Joe Adams a lot, and the most of these three.

[Wrathman]

I like the upside of Childs the most. The league loves size/speed guys.

[Brent]

I love Wright and Adams, but Wright for WR abilities and Adams for returning skills.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Adams goes 2nd-3rd

Wright 4th-5th

Childs 4th-5th


I think Wright will have the best career

[Inspector71]

Childs has the ability if he stays healthy to be a steal in this draft. I think he gets picked MUCH earlier than people think.

Two years from now, people will wonder why he wasn't a 1st rounder.

Greg Childs averaged 82.4 yards/game in 2010 and caught 6 TD's in 8 games as a Junior. He has number 1 WR potential. The other two don't.

If healthy then the answer is a no brainer - Childs. If his Combine medical was clear and he's able to get back to 100% then he can be in impact receiver. Having said that he didn't very little this past season and missed a game with tendonitis.

Adams and Wright both small - Adams small and slow (mid 4.5's). Both were shut down by Alabama and LSU which has prevented me from pushing them too high up my board. Wright very skilled against zone coverage (big games against Texas A&M and Vandy). Adams nice punt returner. They are fairly close together and I have both of them as day three picks.

What I think a lot of people are missing with Childs is that knee injuries usually cost a player an entire year after they've "recovered." Very very few players come back even close to 80% in that first year. He should have stayed another year and porven he's a top 10 caliber player, again. Instead, he declared in a stacked class. . .

If I'm the Patriots, I don't let this guy out of the third.

[A Perfect Score]

Joe Adams is as electric as any player in this draft, he'll be a weapon.

I remember being really impressed with Childs before the injury, I think he's got a ton of talent but he'll need to stay healthy if he wants to contribute in the NFL. But he's a really talented kid, I wouldn't be upset to see either of them on the Ravens come draft time.

Childs didn't "declare", he's a true Senior. Although, I think you meant he should have medical redshirted his Senior year and come back next season.

I must have missed a season because I was almost sure he was a junior coming out :/

Joe Adams to the Lions!!!!! *sigh* I wish
