Deon Cain Considered a Late-round Pick Who Exceeds Expectations in 2018

NFL Media draft analyst Lance Zierlein thinks that Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Deon Cain is among seven late-round draft picks who could exceed expectations in 2018.

Deon Cain, WR, Indianapolis Colts

Drafted: Round 6, No. 185 overall out of Clemson.

Analysis: A receiver with Cain’s size (6-2, 202), speed (4.43-second 40-yard dash), and pedigree is always a welcome sight for quarterbacks. His draft stock was hampered by concerns about his maturity and drops. His physical tools and ability to uncover on all three levels of the field should not be undersold, though.
