Carroo is an excellent receiver. Some team like the Patriots is going to take him on day 2 and let him loose. It's a shame the way things ended here.
 
Would love to see the NY Giants draft him. He'd be a great compliment to Beckham Jr., as a tough receiver with good hands who isn't afraid to go across the middle.

Admittedly, I'm biased as an RU alum but I think Carroo is being underrated in the early draft process thus far. I keep seeing 4-5 WR listed ahead of him in mock drafts. After Treadwell and Coleman I think he's as good as the rest of crop, depending on what you're looking for.
 
I sure do hope my Cowboys sign him. I'm just itching for the first RU player (not Nate Jones) to play for the Cowboys-- I'm hoping all over that jersey.

Carroo is a talented WR. Compelling article that verifies what I've witnessed with my own eyes the past 3 years. I wish him the best. Hopefully the Boys draft him at the top of Round 2.

that is disgusting

he'd have a good QB throwing to him (if romo can stay healthy), but that's a team dynamic i wouldn't wish on any RU player
 
I have a hard time envisioning him being anything less than a #2 receiver in the NFL (assuming he's healthy). I had more doubts about Sanu than Caroo. Britt probably had better straight line speed, but Caroo has far better body control and ability to adjust to the ball.

You and me both! the boys need a wideout bad!!!
 
I don't get vthe perception that Carroo lacks speed. He would out run zone coverage.
 
Good info. Didn't realize he could be rated so highly.

TAKEAWAY
We have seen here that Carroo has an impressive list of comps that include several players that have produced WR1 and WR2 fantasy seasons. His final college season production also compares favorably to that of the other top prospects in his draft class as well as every WR drafted in the first round of the previous two drafts. We still need to see how the combine shakes out for him, but so far Carroo is making a strong case to be a top 3 WR in this year’s draft.
