Who does it look like our coaches favor?

I think it's just beating a dead horse trying to decide between these three. Wait and see

Probably not...we would have 10 WRs already if no one leaves early and none of those guys come. So even if Deon leaves early, that's 9. Having 12 on the roster makes no sense.

All 3? Absolutely no chance.

There's just not a possible way for us to make that many spots open without forcing players out. This staff doesn't do that. Taking 2 of them would mean they are encouraging Cain, Thompson, Renfrow or Mccloud to move on to the NFL.

I'm not saying it hasn't happen but, I have never heard of our coaches encouraging anyone to move on to the NFL. I just couldn't see one of our coaches putting them selves out there like that, and risk the possibility the kid going until the last round, or not getting drafted at all!!!!

Our coaches sometimes encourage guys to move on but do it with honesty. If they did I doubt we would use the ship to oversign at the WR position. I say this based on the fact that we already have a ton of talent at that position and other positions have less depth.

Cain and McCloud are draft eligible after next season. Two more wide receivers would make sense.

5 transfers so far in 2017 along with 4 going to NFL early

The coaches helped those 5 along by speaking the truth to them about playing time.

Eagles has better national ranking average & size
May 10, 2017, 12:30 PM

The other 2 are certainly prime time, but one thought is it's a long way from 225 lbs to 175 lbs in weight for a receiver. I'll take the first to sign and be happy with it and try and squeeze a 2nd commit out of one of them.

Its not always about measureables or national ranking. The right fit also must be taken into consideration. In all honesty, Kendrick would also be an outstanding WR OR DB. Yes any one of the 3 coming to Clemson would be great!!!

Eagles or Ross. Both are highly talented and very humble guys.

first one of the 3 will be Ross

but that doesn't mean it will be Clemson. Just sounds like he is going to commit once his mom returns home and he is able to visit campuses with her.
