I watched these guys run pass receiving drills on TV at the Combine yesterday. These are my observations:

McCaffery: His pass routes were precise; his cuts were sharp and fast; he catches the ball with an easy fluidity like a WR; clearly the best pass catcher of the group. This guy is a smooth, fast athlete who will bring tremendous value to some team. We know he can run the ball, he's a tremendous PR/KR, he catches everything thrown to him, and, I assume he can probably pass well, too. Talk about Slash! He should be an awesome 3rd Down back/Slot Receiver/PR/KR. I think he could play WR, as well.

Cook: He is pure excitement in everything he does. He is a spectacular athlete. He ran very good routes; he has soft natural hands; made the best catch of the day. His quickness is amazing. I'm not sure if he is big enough to be a prime back in the NFL but i sure want to see him try. He reminds me of Shady McCoy.

Fournette: Wow! What an NFL body! He can definitely carry the load in the NFL. He ran decent routes but he struggled catching the ball at first. You could tell that he wasn't used to catching the ball but he improved with every rep - no kidding, visible improvement. By the end of the drills, he was catching the ball just fine. He obviously has the capacity to learn fast. This guy is an exciting big back.

I would draft any of them. There were some other good looking pass receivers among the RB's but I don't have time to get to them right now. I might mention them later.

We all know somehow someway McCaffery is going to end up on the Patriots. He's going to be the running back version of Edelman.
