Eric Ebron looks like he runs nicely...
Colin Kaepernick
6 May
, 2014
Colin Kaepernick had kind of an off year last season. His completion percentage dipped and he took too many sacks.
When looking at those numbers, however, we must factor in degree of difficulty...

The general consensus seems to be that Mike Evans is the 2nd-best receiver in the draft.
