MASSAQUOI TO BEARS?
University of Georgia wide receiver Mohamed Massaquoi has been projected as the Chicago Bears’ second-round draft pick with the 49th overall selection, according to Mike Mayock of NFL Network and Mel Kiper of ESPN.
During a conference call today, Mayock, citing league sources, told reporters that Massaquoi is one of the fastest-rising prospects in the draft.
Massaquoi is scheduled to visit the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday.
He has previously visited the Tennessee Titans and has had private workouts for the Bears, New England Patriots and the Detroit Lions.
A few other possible landing spots for Massaquoi are the San Francisco 49ers’ No. 43 overall selection and the Patriots’ No. 47 overall pick.
At the NFL Scouting Combine, he conducted formal interviews with the 49ers, Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens.
An All-Southeastern Conference selection and four-year starter, Massaquoi caught 58 passes for 920 yards and eight touchdowns last season. His career totals are 158 receptions, 2,282 yards and 16 touchdowns.
A 6′2," 210-pounder ran the 40-yard dash in 4.49 seconds at his Pro Day workout.

You're right he isn't bad at all.
But it would be a huge reach to grab him in the second round…now if the bears drafted a DE/DL in the second, maybe Jarron Gilbert for San Jose State and Mo Masa-whatever in the third..that would be nice. He did make that pitiful Georgia Quarterback look like a First Round talent though….

Mass-a-kwah.
And this kid always came up big against UF, so I can’t give an unbiased review of him. While he did drop a lot of passes, he always was there for a deep bomb to tear open the game.
