2011 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:

Randall Cobb, WR, Kentucky
Cobb was Kentucky's most dynamic offensive weapon over the past three seasons, so it's no surprise that he is leaving early to enter the NFL draft. The electric receiver has tons of experience despite only playing thee years. As a freshman he caught 21 passes for 197 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 316 yards and seven scores. Season two saw him rack up 447 receiving yards, 573 rushing yards, and 14 total touchdowns. Cobb really erupted as a junior in 2010 (especially at the receiver position, where he will play in the NFL). He hauled in 84 passes for 1,017 yards and seven touchdowns. On the ground he rushed 55 times for 424 yards and five scores.
Cobb stands at just 5'1'' and 186 pounds and he is not the fastest wideout in the business, but he still finds a way to get the job done day in and day out. He is incredibly shifty and is lethal with the ball in his hands after the catch. He could be an impact player in a variety of areas at the next level, including on special teams and possible as a quarterback in the Wildcat formation. Cobb, though, will primarily be used as a slot receiver. If he runs a stellar 40-yard dash time at the combine, he could be taken as early as the second round of the upcoming draft.
