Terrence Marshall, Jr. is the guy you probably like most at that spot, then. He's a bigger guy, but has the versatility to run routes outside or in the slot.

Finding a bigger guy who can work inside and outside and also run all routes in Reid's system is not easy.

Toney is a titch smaller than Watkins but otherwise very similar to him. I think Watkins was a more refined route-runner in college, which I guess is the difference in their draft slotting.

I don't know that it's just because of last Saturday. He has had a great year. I started out thinking 5th round and put him in the 4th before bumping him up at the time of this mock. He's had a phenomenal season. I definitely agree he could get first-round consideration. At this point, I'm under the assumption that we'll see 2nd round grades until the underwear Olympics and so forth when his size and speed can be verified.

I took him at 32 in my mock. I’m in love with the guy for this system.

He’s smart, he is disciplined, he’s got the physical ability to win a few different ways, he has heavy hands. Just so much to like about him. Especially for KC.
