A handful of players in recent years came from an FCS background and transitioned into impact receivers at the NFL level. Among them are the reigning super bowl champion Cooper Kupp and his former college teammate Kendrick Bourne, both players who 49ers fans are quite familiar with.
The next player that is poised to make that leap? Allow me to introduce you to Samori Toure, who spent his first three years playing at the FCS level for the Montana Grizzlies despite playing this most recent season at Nebraska.
Toure is a player who is skyrocketing up draft boards after an electric pro day in Lincoln that saw him post numbers that were on par with the best at his position in this class.
