Round 7 was the beginning of the rookie run in a mock draft we completed yesterday. Before we get into that, Dave and Heath give their philosophies on rookie wide receivers as Heath tends to be a bit more conservative. Then we go through each rookie WR selection from our draft and evaluate their values (10:30). Which veteran WRs should go ahead of them (17:15)? ... An update on the "grunts" that you heard on yesterday's show (28:40), then news and notes (31:40) as we talk about the Texans backfield ... Debating Mike Evans (37:40), Amari Cooper (41:30), Allen Robinson (44:15) and the Broncos WRs (47:40) ... Your emails at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
