Adopt-a-Bronco:
Lucas Reed
Default Texas A&M Receiver called "The Next Eric Decker"

Swope entered the season as a possibly late-round selection but elevated his draft grade even prior to the contest against Alabama. His dominant performance during A&M's 29-24 victory over the top-ranked Tide will force scouts to continue to revaluate their opinion of Swope. The senior finished the day with 11 receptions for 111 yards and one touchdown. More impressively, Swope came through in the clutch, making spectacular catches during the game's critical moments, including two receptions in the fourth quarter, which moved the Aggies into scoring position. Swope lacks the speed to be used as a vertical receiver, but he plays smart, tough football and offers reliable hands. His game is similar to Broncos receiver Eric Decker and Swope could end up a third-round pick, just like Decker.

Shouldn't that be "The Next Next Ed McCaffrey"?

1,000,000% agree! I've been saying Russell Wilson reminds me of Doug Flutie, but the media never says it for that exact reason!

Meh, looks a little slower and less athletic. He does look like a very smart player though, and comes off in appearance as being extremely well spoken. Big upside.

He's only 6'0. Too short to be either.

Looks like Todd Marinocich playing WR to me. I hope he doesn't smoke speed like Todd Marinovich.
