Prospects on the rise

Kiper: D.J. Chark, WR, LSU

LSU has had poor quarterback play since Chark has been in school, but he's a dynamic receiver/returner who could be better in the NFL than he has been in college. He was a huge part of the Tigers' comeback win over Auburn on Saturday, with five catches for 150 yards and a 75-yard punt return for a touchdown. It was his second punt-return TD of the season. At 6-3, 195 pounds, Chark has averaged 21.1 yards per catch on his 48 career catches. He's a big-play threat, and I like the way he creates separation late in his routes. I'd like to see him consistently high-point the ball, so he's not a perfect prospect. He also lost a fumble against Auburn. Chark could end up being the top senior receiver in this 2018 class. I have him as a Day 2 pick at this point, and he could move up if he tests well.
