Radical Moderate
He is generally graded as a late round pick, but I was watching some of his film and he looks like a really interesting late round pick.

For those who don't feel like watching the video here is a quick summary of what I see as his pros and cons:
Pros:
-Amazing size.
-Raw with high upside.
-Uses his size well to overpower smaller players.
-Despite not having elite speed, his straight line speed is at least good enough that it appears CBs respect his ability to breakaway on deeper routes.
-He positions himself well in his routes to put himself in the holes in zone coverage. Much better running routes against zone than man.
-Above average hands. Don't see the drop problems I did with Kelvin Benjamin.
-Makes good adjustments when the ball is in the air.
-Very good blocker.
-Solid after the catch.
Cons:
-Lacks top end speed.
-Route running ability is solid, but he lacks the quickness to get separation in man to man coverage. A lot of his catches are in tight windows on contested throws.
-Despite his size I don't see a lot of success against press coverage and is not overly impressive off of the line of scrimmage.
-Not a ton of college production. Never had more than 700 yards in a season at Rutgers.
-I noticed a good amount of miscommunications on throws to Coleman, difficult to know if that is the QB's fault or Coleman's fault.
He is one of those guys that if you get him the right coaching he could develop into a solid WR at the NFL level. Due to his size and raw natural ability I find him an interesting guy to look at in the later rounds and could be a Joe Jurevicius type guy for us.
