3. Stanley Morgan Jr. – Nebraska

Morgan might have been the happiest person at Nebraska to hear that Scott Frost was coming to town. His decision to stick with the Cornhuskers for his senior season could really pay off if he can produce in Frost’s system.

It’s not as if Morgan wasn’t productive for Nebraska last season. He posted 61 catches for just under 1,000 yards. He’d like to think he can improve those numbers this season, but his team’s unstable quarterback situation could make that difficult.

Even if he can’t put up big numbers this season, it will still be easy to see his talent out on the field. He’s such a fluid athlete that he makes running routes look easy. Morgan might be the only player on this list who is equally capable of playing outside or in the slot.

Look for Morgan’s versatility to move him up some team’s boards. He may not ever develop into a No. 1 wideout at the next level, but he’s got a very high floor. It’s hard to imagine him not becoming a productive NFL receiver.
