KC Concepcion Hypes Up Browns Fans With Draft Night Message
New Cleveland Browns receiver KC Concepcion arrives with electric confidence, vowing to transform the organization after being selected No. 24 overall.
"Get your popcorn ready. " That's the message Texas A&M wide receiver KC Concepcion wanted to send to Cleveland Browns on Thursday night after he was selected 24th overall. "I'm ready right now," he added.
"I'm ready to play. I'm ready to change the organization. " Other Browns draft picks have said similar things before and not delivered.
But the franchise's disapointing history certainly isn't going scare the guy who penned a letter to all NFL GMs in the Players' Tribune this week stating he's "the best receiver in this draft. Period. " Not everyone will agree with those sentiments.
Throughout the predraft process, much was made of Concepcion's alarming drop rate, which hovered a little over 9% in his junior campaign with the Aggies. Add in his previous two seasons at NC State, and he enters the NFL with an overall catch rate of only 63. 5% and a contested catch conversion of just 45.
