Kendall Wright, NFL Draft 2012: Baylor Receiver Should Be A Draft Riser
Baylor senior wide receiver Kendall Wright will head to the NFL Draft as a potential first round pick.
Wright is expected to rise in draft rankings when it gets down to running the 40-yard dash and agility drills at the NFL Combine, where he can show off his blazing speed and quickness. Wright is a bit of a smaller receiver however, being listed at only 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds, so his official measurements will be a bit of a concern for some teams. Wright as it stands is expected to be a late first round pick.
