It will be interesting to see what happens with Moncrief. He'll get pushed down the draft because of Mike Evans, who's the most similar player to Moncrief (even a little bigger), and where Dante times out at the combine if he does declare.
He doesn't have much to prove at Ole Miss at this point other than potentially elevating his draft stock for 2015.
You don't think guys like Moncrief end up in the third round, but I think he'll get similar treatment to what you saw with Eric Decker and Keenan Allen, both of whom should have gone much higher in the draft than the third round, but they both ended up there because of injury or questions about being able to separate from NFL defenders on a long field (which is the question that most people will have about Moncrief heading into the draft). However, like Moncrief, both of those guys could catch the living shit out of the ball and destroyed people at the college level. I think Donte is very similar to both of those players from a pro potential and questions about his game standpoint.
However, I think the guy will be an absolute stud at the next level. Reminds me a lot of Andre Johnson.
