Trent Richardson = Jonathan Stewart (with an attitude)
I checked their weightlifting personal records (since both are physical specimens) and believe it or not J-Stew is stronger

J Stew is a FREAK!
But Richardson isn't NEAR as fast as Stewart. J Stew ran a 4.45 on a broken foot at the combine without training at all at almost 240 lbs.
Richardson i think is gonna be like Shonn Greene. He's not all that fast, but he's a very physical runner with a little bit of wiggle to him.

Tackle, I just don't see it. Cruz is extremely fluid and a creative route runner who uses his quick feet to create separation. He is also extremely good at locating the ball and concentrating to make the tough catch, while also having drops on catchable balls because he is looking to run before he has possession. The latter part about concentration, body control, and playing the ball superbly in the air despite not being that tall (Cunningham is probably 6-1ish whereas Cruz is 6-0 but most likely 5-11). Besides locating the ball well, they are different receivers. Cruz offers much much more as a route runner, much more fluid, better body control (its close though), and a threat in open space.

Shonn Greene? Wow.
Richardson doesn't have a 1-for-1 comp. He's a special blend of many different players. Size and physique of Jonathan Stewart (5'10", 225-230), power of Michael Turner and MJD, and cutting/juking ability (and bow-leggedness) of Ahmad Bradshaw.

Agreed. Little bit of wiggle? Richardson has a TON of wiggle....especially for a man his size. Bradshaw is a good comparison for running style, but Richardson seems to be much more in control as a runner than Bradshaw and I think he can get from those jukes to north-and-south quicker. Add on that Trent is probably physically going to be one of the top 5 strongest RBs in the NFL, and you have a pretty unique package. I do worry that Richardson will take on too many hits at the next level and have durability issues, but that's really the only negative to his game.

Does anyone have a comparison for Robert Woods or Marqise Lee (I know he isn't draft eligible)? Reggie Wayne is the one I would use for Woods.

Every time I watch Justin Blackmon I see a lot of Greg Jennings in him.

Blackmon - Nicks with slightly better speed and quickness.
Mark Barron - Kerry Rhodes of Kerry Rhodes lost a little athleticism (not TOO much) and in return cared about football. Adrian Wilson? Why do many Cardinals?
Alameda Ta'amu - Sione Pouha
Colby Fleener - Pick any tall, white non-first round TE prospect with blonde hair, a projectable frame, and some pass catching skills. I'll go with Kevin Boss.
Jannoris Jenkins - Eric Wright jr.
Ryan Broyles - Eddie Royal?
