We are getting closer and closer to the annual spectacle that is the NFL draft. As always, we expect to see a lot of scarlet and gray be a part of all the hoopla, and it’ll start early with receivers Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave expected to go in the first round.
Most mock drafts and analysts have the pair somewhere between the second to fifth-best receivers available in the draft, but there’s one very well-known draft analyst that has Garrett Wilson as the best receiver on his board.
It might not line up with what most others are saying, but ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. believes Wilson has the biggest upside and is the best available option. If you haven’t heard what he’s said about the talented and dynamic wideout, you can catch all of his comments thanks to a video shared on ESPN.com.

We’ve also heard rumblings about both Wilson and Chris Olave potentially going sooner than a lot of people think, so we’ll just have to watch how it all unfolds in Vegas later this month.
