2016 NFL Draft Range: Top 20 – 1st Round

Corey Coleman is the 2015 Biletnikoff Award winner, the first wide receiver from Baylor to earn the honor.  He is the latest in an increasing line of NFL wide receivers from the self-styled “WR U,” which includes the likes of Kendall Wright, Terrance Williams and, of course, Josh Gordon. Coleman led the FBS in touchdown receptions in 2015 and was voted a unanimous All-American. He leaves Baylor as the program’s leader in career touchdowns, single-season touchdowns and single-game touchdowns.

As a mid-first round prospect, Coleman could be a target for the Browns in either a trade down from No. 2 or a trade up from No. 32 if the Browns believe the Baylor receiver can revamp their receiving corps.
