"The Trojans have churned out a number of NFL receivers over the past decade, but Agholor has a chance to be one of the best to come out of USC since Keyshawn Johnson. He is a natural route runner with outstanding ball skills and hands. Additionally, Agholor is a sneaky runner with a knack for turning short passes into big gains due to his underrated kick-return skills. Given the importance NFL coaches place on run after catch yards, Agholor's spectacular game is perfectly suited for a West Coast offense at the next level." - Bucky Brooks, NFL.com

 "Agholar had 104 receptions for 1,313 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2014. He made some huge, clutch catches to help USC beat Stanford. Agholor also destroyed California. He needs to improve his hands as he is prone to some drops. Agholor is a quick receiver who lacks elite speed, but he is a good route-runner who is dangerous after the catch." - Charlie Campbell, WalterFootball.com

Projected NFL Draft Pick: Mid 2nd - Mid 3rd
