One AFC scout views TCU wide receiver Josh Doctson as a first or second round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, according to Chase Goodbread of College Football 24/7.
Doctson is truly emerging as one of the best receivers in all of college football, and he is likely moving up draft boards with every great performance he gives on Saturdays. "One of the best receivers in the country," said the scout, via NFL.com. "He's a good athlete, not elite speed but fast enough. He's got a chance to be a first- or second-round guy."
The senior wide receiver is having a monster season, numbers wise. Doctson has 727 receiving yards with eight touchdowns. In the past three games against SMU, Texas Tech and Texas, Doctson has caught seven touchdowns, and it looks as though he is only getting better as the season progresses.
TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin may be one of the early favorites for the Heisman, but his top target, Doctson, is likely one of the best NFL prospects on the Horned Frogs roster.
College football has a ton of depth at the wide receiver position, but Doctson is seen as one of the top ten at his position, according to WalterFootball.com. If Doctson continues to put up huge numbers, he could likely see himself become on of the top sought prospects in college football.
The Cleveland Browns, New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens are all teams that could be looking to draft Doctson in 2016, according NFL Media's Lance Zierlein.
TCU travels to Kansas State Saturday and are looking to win their third game in the Big 12 conference. The undefeated Horned Frogs will likely look to Doctson to have a big game this weekend, as he will likely be needed to get a crucial win in Kansas.
