Bottom Line
To me, Agholor is a thinner version of Cooper but he doesn’t quite have Coopers’ hands yet. This is why I thought he should have went back to school and come out in 2016 as the best in the draft. But he is coming out now and he’s a very draftable player as it is and most of the boards I’ve seen have him in the second round.
I saw couple that view him as a middle-rounds prospect but I definitely see him as a second round pick. And if he catches everything in drills at the combine and at his pro-day, he could go high in the second. And if he can run a 4.3 at the combine, that could raise some eyebrows to where he sneaks into the bottom of the first round.
Either way, he’s going to be a good player in the NFL.
