NFL Draft WR prospect, Jaelen Strong: Arizona State redshirt junior WR Jaelen Strong caught seven passes for 103 yards in the schools 36-31 win over Duke. It was Strongs final collegiate performance, and some believe he is due for a top 50 selection. Strongs name is apt, as one of his bets traits is winning in contested situations. The Combine will also be a meaningful event for Strongs evaluation. Arizona State redshirt junior WR Jaelen Strong is a natural hands catcher with the coordination and aggressive nature to win 50-50 balls and come down with contested catches, writes CBS Sports Dane Brugler. Strong passes the eye test with an excellent blend of size and speed at the receiver position, giving his quarterback an easy target, Brugler wrote. We learned Monday that Strong will enter the 2015 NFL Draft. This has been one of the most difficult decisions of my life, Strong said in a statement. Ive spoken to my family and we feel it is best for me to declare for the 2015 NFL Draft. He ranks as CBS No. 20 overall prospect. Well built at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, Strong has the ballskills and physicality of a basketball power forward, which makes sense as the son of John Rankin, who starred on the hardcourt at Drexel, Brugler wrote.
