Devin Funchess

WR, Michigan

Devin Funchess didn’t get much help from his quarterbacks at Michigan but still managed to catch 111 passes for 1,581 yards and 10 touchdowns his last two seasons in Ann Arbor. He has elite size for the position at 6-4 1/4 and 232 pounds and boosted his draft stock with a good pro day.

Funchess improved on his sluggish 40 time at the combine in February and ran a 4.47 and 4.53 at the Wolverines pro day in mid-March. He can be this year’s version of Kelvin Benjamin as a supersized receiver who finds a way to sneak into the bottom of the first round, but I think the safe bet is that Funchess will be one of the first 10 picks in the second round.
