WR is one of the toughest, along w/qb, to transition from college. Also like qb, it's one of those positions that teams always seem willing to draft high. Maybe that's changing though.

Last year remember our very own D. Thomas was projected by many to go as high as 11 to Buffalo. Instead we got him in the 2nd round. Not a wr taken in the 1st. That class wasn't as highly rated as this one, but I still only see 3 1st rounders; Crab, Mac, & either Nicks or Heyward-Bey.

I like Nicks a lot, I think he's a tough player w/great hands. Hopefully, all of these guys will go in the 1st.
