Draft Pick: Rasheed Marshall

#174 Overall - Rasheed Marshall
Wide Receiver
West Virginia
Height 6-1 - Weight 190

Strengths: Extremely athletic player...Elusive and a threat to go the distance whenever he touches the ball...Understands the passing game...Could be a weapon on trick plays...Has a lot of upside and potential.

Weaknesses: Will be making a position switch which is always a risky proposition...Size and speed are only average...Extremely raw and will have a lot to learn and will essentially be starting from scratch.

Notes: Played quarterback his senior season for the Mountaineers but will have to shift to wideout at the pro level, a la someone like Antwaan Randle El...Intriguing developmental prospect.
