Mayock's new rankings:

Wide receiver 

1. Kevin White, West Virginia 

2. Amari Cooper, Alabama 

3. DeVante Parker, Louisville 

4. Breshad Perriman, Central Florida 

T-5. Nelson Agholor, USC

T-5. Dorial Green-Beckham, Missouri

"I've got eight wide receivers with potential first-round grades. Of those eight, I think six will go in the first round," Mayock said on NFL Network's "Path to the Draft." "Kevin White and Amari Cooper are both top 10 talents. I like White slightly higher."

Mayock also thinks those two, plus Louisville's DeVante Parker and fast rising UCF prospect Breshad Perriman, will be taken in the top 20 of the draft.

Mayock adds in Dorial Green-Beckham, whose off-the-field issues put his draft status in question

"Nelson Agholor from USC is perhaps the fastest riser in the entire draft," Mayock said. "He's an impeccable route runner who can play inside or outside. He has tremendous value as a punt returner."

man, someone really good is going to drop to us at 25. With qbs, pass rushers and WR's being

mentioned so often, I'm starting to get excited about a real good player or two to choose from at

25.

I get excited too, then I think about the chance Gettleman uses the pick on Gurley. I get pissed off all over again.

note that is based on what Mayock learned from going around the country to all the Pro Days:

"NFL Media analyst Mike Mayock has finally come in from the coast-to coast pro-day circuit, and after talking with various coaches, scouts, and general managers, he's gotten a better sense of who is rising and falling in the 2015NFL Draft."

Fastest Risers:

#1 Nelson Agholor

#3 Breshad Perriman

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
