7. Christian Kirk, Wide Reciever, Texas A&M

Finally, someone other than a cornerback. Christian Kirk starts a new trend on this list that sees a couple of wide receivers go in a row.

Kirk is listed as Mel Kiper Jr’s 24th best player available, but because of need, he rises to No. 7 on this list.

He’s another player who can play the slot for Green Bay, but gives them a different type of look than Randall Cobb. He’s a much bigger and more physical player who uses his body well to shield defenders.

He’s unlikely to open up the passing game down the field, which is one reason he’s behind a couple of other receivers on this list. However, he can also help in the return game and get the embattled Trevor Davis away from returning punts.
