3. Amari Rodgers

The next Tiger off the board after Etienne could be a toss-up, but we’re giving the edge to wide receiver Amari Rodgers.

Rodgers has been a steady-riser on NFL Draft boards this entire spring, and for good reason.

Rodgers has the strength and physicality of a running back, but he has the athleticism and play-making ability of a wide receiver.

The one drawback for Rodgers in this draft? The depth of the wide receiver class.

This is one of the deepest wide receiver classes we’ve seen in quite some time and that means you’re going to see guys who would normally be taken in one spot fall a little further than some may have thought.

Still, Rodgers is a fringe second-rounder who certainly won’t be around long once Round 3 begins.
