AJ Green ~ Beast + Ascending Star!!
When I evaluate any prospect, 1% of it derives from my own analysis of The Tape, and 99% of it is my evaluation of the evaluators: Those guys, quoted and linked, above, whose expertise DWARFS mine.
***
AJ Green is a flat-out Super Star Prospect.
His Navigational skills, his Instincts, his Fludity, and his Lateral Agility make him virtually unstoppable, every time he runs out there. He doesn't have elite Long Speed, but his Fluidity and Acceleration are more that enough to make him a persistent Vertical Threat. He's the most dangerous Wide Out to come out since Calvin Johnson.
Ascending Star.

Julio Jones ~ Beast + Ascending Star!!

Julio Jones, for my money, is the best Wide Receiver in this Draft, bar none.
He commands tremendous Burst, amazing Fluidity, explosive Lateral Agility, and stark, brutal, Strength. He can flat out FLY, he's tenacious and tough, and a tremendous Navigator. It is only his inconsistency in hanging onto the ball that keeps him from being the best pure Receiver in this Draft. That honor goes to AJ Green.
But Julio Jones is the most violent, relentless, and devastating Blocker of any Wide Out since Hines Ward.
Julio Jones is a Beast on Wheels.
While AJ Green commands a tremendous Game and will doubtlessly get the HighLight Reel Catches, Julio Jones is the guy you want if you're in the business of winning World Championships.
Ascending Star!!

Leonard Hankerson ~ Bust!!

***
I just don't see it.
Leonard Hankerson strikes me as having a lack of Burst, pedestrian Speed, and poor Navigational skills.
He is not without gifts, but I sense a lack of Tenacity. Perhaps I'm wrong, but my instincts are telling me "Bust".
Bust!!

Jonathan Baldwin ~ Over Rated!!

***
Jonathan Baldwin has tremendous Strength, but not a whole hell of a lot else. His skill set strikes me as that of a Possession Receiver, and I just don't think he's got the mentality for that role.
Over Rated!!

Ricardo Lockette ~ Super Sleeper!!

***
Ricardo Lockette is, without question, one of the very most explosively gifted Wide Receivers in this Class.
Any guy who weighs in at 6.2/210, knocks out 22 Bench Presses, and blasts a 4.34 on the 40 is a FREAK.
Whether or not he can play Wide Receiver at the next level is the question.
Simply put, he is raw as Hell, and it's way too early to say with certainty that he'll make it.
But the kid has a ferociously competitive nature...And that, frankly, is all I need to know.
I think he'll make it, all right. And I think he'll crush his deficiences, master his strengths...and become exceptional.
Super Sleeper!!

Courtney Smith ~ Sleeper!!

***
Courtney Smith is pretty raw, coming from South Alabama, and has a pretty sketchy past.
Nevertheless, this is a 6.4/225 Wide Out with outstanding Size + Strength, surprising Speed, excellent Burst off the Line, and some Navigational skills. He's been booted out of TWO schools ~ one for an off-field incident, the other for grades ~ but one might make allowances for an emotionally trying recent history: His parents were MIA for a MONTH, after Hurricane Katrina, in 2005.
He really started to pull things together, after 2008, and his last two years have been without incident...and have been spectacular.
I think this kid has enormous upside, and yet is likely to go in the very late Rounds.
Sleeper!!
