Cooper Kupp, Eastern Washington

Kupp is an intriguing player. Out of Eastern Washington, Kupp surpassed 1,000 yards all four seasons, and totaled 73 career touchdowns.

The former Eastern Washington Eagle showed he could play with college football’s best corners, repeatedly beating defenders at the Senior Bowl.

At 6’2″, Kupp has the size to potentially start on the outside. However his 4.54 speed is alarming to some.

For the Eagles, Kupp could be the perfect replacement in the slot for Matthews. His ability to create separation with pristine route running and make incredible contested catches with some of the best hands in all of college football makes him an intriguing prospect in the mid-rounds.

Oh, he also worked out with Carson Wentz so take out of that what you will.

Projected Round Selected: 3rd-4th Round
