Michael Gallup WR NFL Draft

OVERALL

Michael Gallup is an interesting prospect because he fits the bill with size, athleticism and hands. The biggest adjustment will be going from limited time at Colorado State to the NFL. He's a player to watch for in Year 3 and to not expect a ton from right away.

GRADE: 6.25 (Round 3)

PRO PLAYER COMPARISON: Nelson Agholor, Philadelphia Eagles
