1. Quentin Johnston, TCU 

— His size gives him the edge over the rest to me, but it’s close as all five of these could land in round one.

2. Zay Flowers, Boston College 

— I love his versatility and the way an offense can use him from screens to jet sweeps.

3. Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Ohio State 

— He’d be No. 1 if he didn’t miss most of last season, but he could be an elite slot.

4. Jordan Addison, USC 

— Addison fell off a bit last year at USC, but his production can’t be questioned, and he’s an elite route runner.
