DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk NFL Draft 2026 Pick #24 Texas A&M WR KC Concepcion

Would rather have taken Cooper from Indiana. The drops worry me.

Of course. All the players I don't want they draft. WRs who drop the ball are not first round talent. SIGH ....

We Got Our LT And WR Good Night Berry

It would not be a Cleveland Browns WR draft selection if the player didn't have drop issues!

Dane Bugler's write-up....

BACKGROUND
Kevin “KC” Concepcion Jr. (con-sepp-see-OWN), who has four younger brothers, was born in Rochester, N.Y., before his family
relocated to Charlotte, N.C., when he was 6. He was raised by his mother (Arriel), who works in healthcare, and father (Kevin Sr.), who
now works in the NIL/marketing space. KC’s great-grandmother (Loyda Gonzalez), who raised Kevin Sr., is a native of Barcelonita,
Puerto Rico, and later moved to New York.

His father is a former athlete who was recruited for baseball, basketball and football out of high school and had a standout redshirt
freshman season as a defensive back and return man at Buffalo in 2002. However, he had several run-ins with the law, which disrupted
his playing career. He later played semipro indoor football for the Rochester Raiders in 2010 (65 catches for 921 yards and 30
touchdowns) and the Erie Explosion in 2011 (1,502 receiving yards, 46 touchdowns).

KC Concepcion started playing flag football at age 4 and tackle football at age 5. He played numerous positions in youth football,
including quarterback through middle school. He also started playing basketball in seventh grade and was a standout point guard. One
of his younger brothers (Arrion) played his freshman season as a wide receiver at James Madison in 2025. Another of his brothers
(Lloyd) is a standout middle school athlete. He also has a half-brother (Keyon), who played his redshirt freshman season as a wide
receiver at Division II Concord (W.Va.) in 2025.

Concepcion grew up with a stutter. He has been open about his experience, including being the target of bullying, and spoke about it at
the NFL combine.

He attended Zebulon B. Vance High School in Charlotte, which was later renamed Julius L. Chambers High School in 2021. He was a
four-year letterman on varsity and teammates with James Pearce Jr. (2025 first-rounder of the Atlanta Falcons) and Hollywood
Smothers (NC State 2026 NFL prospect). Concepcion made an immediate impact as a freshman wide receiver for a team that finished
13-2 and won the 2019 Class 4AA state championship (first state title in school history). Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, his
sophomore season was moved to the spring of 2021 — he helped lead the team to a 10-1 finish and another state championship (had a
14-yard touchdown catch in the title game). As a junior in the fall of 2021, Concepcion caught 36 passes for 458 yards and eight
touchdowns, while adding three punt return touchdowns, as Chambers won 11 games. As a senior, he led Chambers to its fourth straight
regional title and earned honorable mention all-state honors. He finished his final season with 32 catches for 527 yards and five
touchdowns, along with one rushing touchdown and one kick return touchdown. He also played basketball at Chambers before deciding
to focus on football.

A three-star recruit, Concepcion was the 82nd-ranked wide receiver in the 2023 class and the No. 21 recruit in North Carolina. He
started to move up the recruiting rankings after his sophomore season and picked up offers from Boston College, Charlotte, Marshall,
Maryland and NC State. As a junior, Concepcion received his first SEC offer (Vanderbilt), along with offers from Florida State, Duke,
Michigan State, North Carolina, Penn State and West Virginia. Ultimately, his decision came down to NC State and North Carolina. He
committed to the Wolfpack in August 2022, because they “showed the most love” and gave him a chance to see early playing time. After
two standout seasons, Concepcion entered the transfer portal in December 2024 and took visits to Alabama, Colorado, Miami and Texas
A&M. His connection with head coach Mike Elko and quarterback Marcel Reed led him to the Aggies.

While at NC State, Concepcion established the KC Concepcion Foundation and is involved in the community, including back-to-school
drives. He elected to skip his senior season and enter the NFL Draft.

STRENGTHS
● Fluid, gliding athlete with adequate size
● Sudden in his releases to swipe away jams and quickly stack corners
● Efficient speed cuts to build/maintain momentum through route breaks (heavy dose of in/out routes on his tape)
● Uses crafty body lean in route construction to force defenders off-balance
● Bends back to the football and has a feel for exposing space (78.7 percent of his 2025 catches went for a first down or touchdown,
third-best rate in FBS)
● Used on screens and gadgets to weaponize his catch-and-run acceleration (7.2 YAC per reception in 2025)
● Able to make impressive adjustments on the ball mid-air and in traffic
● Really like his compete skills (at the catch, after the catch and as a blocker)
● Averaged 16.2 yards per punt return in college, with two return touchdowns in 2025 (79 and 80 yards)
● Head coach Mike Elko says he has “tremendous” work ethic — he quickly ingrained himself in the A&M culture
● Recorded at least three catches in all 13 games in 2025; tied for the SEC lead with nine touchdown grabs

WEAKNESSES
● Too many drops and double catches on his tape (both at NC State and Texas A&M)
● Late to frame the football, leading to claps and body traps
● Unnecessarily jumps at catch point, disrupting his focus
● Will freelance his routes at times, upsetting timing with his quarterback
● Falls below size requirements at outside receiver for several NFL teams
● Muffed punt on 2025 Miami tape
● Right knee scope (March 2026), performed by Cowboys team physician, Dr. Daniel Cooper

SUMMARY
A one-year starter at Texas A&M (and three-year starter overall), Concepcion lined up both outside (65.5 percent of snaps) and inside
(34.3 percent) in former offensive coordinator Collin Klein’s RPO-based scheme. A prized target in the transfer portal after two seasons
at NC State, he was the Aggies’ leading receiver in 2025 and led the SEC in receiving touchdowns (nine) and punt return yards (456). He
won the 2025 Paul Hornung Award as the most versatile player in college football, and he became the first player in school history to
record a receiving touchdown, rushing touchdown and punt return touchdown in the same season

I am not a fan of the Fano pick. For Conception I am torn.
He gets great separation and is dynamic with the ball in his hands
But that's the key, ball in his hands
If he can fix the drops...if

Great kick returner from what i hear

I don’t know him well but dropsy reputation is scary. Of course Berry wasn’t here to remember our history of droppers. Doesn’t matter if you run good routes or get separation if you then drop the ball. Is that Improvable? He also looks slight to my eye. Welp, good luck kid. I’m pulling for ya.

And that was after the Fano pick.

Corey Coleman vibes. Should be fun to watch this play out.

I would have gone Cooper. Give me the receiver that catches the ball.

I have no clue what these graphs/charts mean

He'll be fine.

Some "experts" were debating that he is the best WR in the draft, or at worse top 3.

I wanted Tate or Cooper, receivers who hold onto the football. Tate was gone before the Browns could draft; Cooper has sure hands and great concentration. I am tired of receivers who drop the ball.

Both picks come with some concern - both come with huge upsides if those concerns end up being overblown. Concepcion might carry the slightly bigger risk if he can't play outside and the Browns try to keep him there. His trajectory in the NFL will forever be measured against Omar Cooper.

I actually like the idea of swinging for the fences with this pick.

Catching the ball is a fundamental you learn when you are 10 years old out in the backyard. It's as basic as it gets. I am sure that between HS coaching, college coaching, and any receiver camps the guy has attended those coaches have tried to work with him. At this point in life you don't teach a guy to catch. There is no magic pill at this point. It is what it is.

He does bring some juice to the slot position so he should be exciting to watch even with the frustrations.

Most wide receivers that have higher drop rates have them due to problems with staying focused. Perhaps adhd. I don't know but no one comes to the Browns and gets better with drops.

This is it for me. Hence the 'swing for the fences' comment.

Your comment about Zay Flowers made me wonder if this pick was influenced by Monken?

Its about time Berry drafted a WR that is a actual WR thay can seperate. Not a track phenomenon, or possession WR.
He can run the whole route tree. Maybe for once the Browns offense can actually go vertical

I'm not to enamored with the Concepcion pick because of the drops issue but this kid could be a grand slam for us. He's explosive and dynamic something we need and haven't seen in a long time here. I'll take a wait and see approach, but we may really have a very good player and as always, I'll be rooting hard for him and any player we have and acquire.

One thing I do like more and more each day is.. Monken. However, I don't know if Monken has ever developed a great WR. Flowers is a 1000 yard receiver that doesn't catch TDs. Is that who Concepcion is going to be?

Yards are great, but points win games.

I hope Christian and Callie can get everything out of Concepcion. Fannin came into the league like a wrecking ball, maybe they can do the same for KC.

I think you might be on to something with Flowers and the yards vs TD thing - and I don't hate that. Fannin and Judkins will score plenty of TDs - a 2nd receiving TE option or a WR like Boston would also be a threat. I think Jaylen Waddle is a hell of a WR and worth a 1st round pick - he has never been a big TD machine but he is plenty good. Someone the other team has to account for - both deep and medium routes.

I like that - who is the guy on the right who does most of the talking? We know Andrew Siciliano is a Browns fan -- is this guy also or is he someone knowledgeable and neutral?

KC is going to open things up for our other guys. He and Bonds are 2 guys that can stretch the field. We just need a QB that can get them the ball!

Catching the ball is the first, most critical and fundamental part of being a WR. #1 on the list.

I thought that more WR's would be drafted before the #24 pick and that they might draft Concepcion out of need due to better WR's being of the board.

I find it hard to fathom how they picked Concepcion with Cooper still sitting there on the board. I think even Boston would have been a better pick.

Here's to hoping they were right and I was wrong.

The videos are reassuring. But I remember how much "overlooked" chatter Cedric Tillman got. I have some hope.

KC Concepcion was not my pick of receiver at #24 but I understand why they picked him. He was clearly the most explosive option. He is just as explosive as Lemon and Tyson. The Browns lack explosive players. This offense needs explosive plays. He fits that bill and can be used a variety of ways just need to get the ball in his hands.

Would not have been my pick either, but like you said, we need explosiveness.

MANY of us complained that we had a WR room that as a whole couldn't get separation or get open to save their lives, and that has very very true for quite a while. This should start to change that.

I'll say this much, because it may very well apply. I've been down on Sanders since we drafted him, and I'm nowhere near convinced, but this dude has had his nose to the grindstone since day one... and lived at Berea since the season ended.

If somehow-someway, he turns the corner, he and KC are a match made in heaven. Sanders throws one of the most catchable balls in the league. His trajectory and the loft he puts on deep balls could make Concepcion look like Tyreek Hill.

Call me crazy.

Please be right!!!! The quickest way for the Browns to turn this around is to somehow hit on Sanders. I agree with what you said. What I have heard is he took 1 week off after the season and has lived in Berea working out, watching film, etc... He seems like a good kid, and I like his work ethic hopefully he surprises us all and becomes the answer at QB. KC if used right and I think Monken will use him in the Zay Flowers role can put some pressure on the defense with his explosion that the Browns have been lacking. The improved Oline should really help Judkins. Really hoping he is the Nick Chubb answer also.

I watched about 1-2 minutes of a Monken presser I assume was after both of our selections. His answers were short and to the point. I love that. I don't need a 5-paragraph answer that required a thesaurus to describe how you feel about something, especially if the question is basically a yes/no. Same as in coaching. Get to your point and get the work done.

I was thinking a few weeks back about how quiet the paparazzi media has been about Sanders this offseason. I've seen quite a few videos of him (and Watson) getting the receivers together to throw.

I agree about the a great match him and KCC.

Milk’s drinking buddy even got to say hi at the end

Had not heard that. Man that is encouraging even if he isn't the guy.

An accurate deep ball will definitely be a help for KC.

He's such a schmuck, lol.

I guarantee he's one of those boobs that calls his father-in-law "dad."

I'm listening to Fano/Concepcion dual presser right now... It is a blessing that Concepcion can play football, because he doesn't have to speak while doing his job. Um, Hi, um, ,my name, um, is um, KC, um... Oi...it is really hard to listen to... I don't recommend it if you haven't already.

I think he might have a stuttering issue and that might be his coping mechanism. He repeats words a lot in his sentences.

Could say the same for about 90% of those drafted last night in the 1st round. He also is an acknowledged stutterer.

I was about to say, it almost seems like an extreme anxiety issue maybe. I wasn't aware that he had the stuttering issue.

Like I said, it doesn't really matter. Has nothing to do with football. I just feel bad for the kid. Limit his press time if it bothers him.

That was mentioned in Milk's post earlier in this thread:

https://www.dawgtalkers.net/ubbthre...4-texas-a-m-wr-kc-concepcion#Post2136779

"Concepcion grew up with a stutter. He has been open about his experience, including being the target of bullying, and spoke about it at the NFL combine."

KCC wrote a letter to GMs.

It’s an awesome read.

I was just about to post this since IrishDawg was not aware of Concepcion's stuttering problem and the letter he wrote.

Wow. Absolutely loved that. And it feels authentic and written by him. Kudos. I'll root for him even harder now.

Good stuff, KC.

Welcome to CLE - make it happen.

Me too. Wow!!

I gotta be honest. This has been a long journey for us as fans as well. After the Baker debacle, one thing became clear in my head, I just want someone to root for. Baker was someone to root for, Watson was not. That was the biggest gut punch.

I'll never belittle a championship, but we'll barely remember the "trophy", we'll remember the journey it took to get there.

Every season is another chapter. This one, we've clearly just added a fan favorite and someone you'd have to be crazy not to want to root for.

Fantastic read (and very well written). Everyone should take the time. I read it once and then read it again to my wife and son. I'm glad we know his story. I'm glad he's ready to show the world.

From the above Tweet...

"And yes, the second-highest drop rate (7.4%), but if that's your point of emphasis, I think you'll always miss the forest for the trees at this position. If everything else translates, you live with 7-8 drops in a season because the plays you make outweigh the plays you don't."

This is the exact point I made about Josh Allen coming out. Even if his completion percentage never improved, everyone should be willing to trade 2.3 incompletions per game for everything else he brought to the table.

In this case, it becomes a problem when the drops are chronic and at all the wrong times.

I agree Fate.

I was listening to his initial presser with Spencer and noticed the repeat words/phrases. My first thought was, is this guy nervous. Then I thought I remembered one of our "draft target" stuttered pretty severely. I think it is a sign of character that he fought through the problem and the bullying. He quickly became one of my favorite players on the team. I will be rooting hard for K C.

Just watched the film on all of KCC's drops (19 throughout his career), his separation and some of the catches that shows he can make the tough catches.

Regarding his drops, this in my opinion is really overblown. He did have a couple where there were a couple blatant drops and that happens. No excuse for those. However, a big portion of them were either hospital balls or really bad throws by the Qb's (at NC State and A&M). I am not that concerned as to what has been said. There were a lot of yards left on the field due to A&Ms QB. On a personal note, thankfully I am not an A&M fan. Their QB was really erratic last year.

There are some things that do need to be taught or cleaned up about his game. I would say this hand placement mostly on slants, arms should be extended, diamond hands with palms facing the balls. He gets into the habit of more of wanting to bend the elbows and bring the ball into a basket or cradle against his body (I hope that is a clear picture for you). Arm extension is one thing, the other is sometimes jumping for balls when it's not necessary. I would add looking the ball in before looking up field, however this is so minimal to the point that NFL receivers do this every so often.

ouch this describes Braylon Edwards. hope it doesnt turn out the same.

ouch this describes Braylon Edwards. hope it doesnt turn out the same.

I did think of Braylon too - who could make the tough catches and then just drop the simple ones thru lack of concentration or starting up field before he caught the ball. But they are very different receivers, and based on the challenges he has overcome and his letter to the GMs I think the work ethic and attitude will be night and day. With the addition of Boston I love this pick even more.

Fate - agree with you and the comment by whoever talked about the drop rates ... I was trying how to phrase it yesterday but the simple version is getting open and being available "virtually all the time" and the play making he will make outweighs the occasional drop. I was trying to make it mathematical but it's really pretty simple.

Over the years, watching "butterfingers", I became convinced he actually had a depth perception problem. He would often react very late and the movement of his hands was so chaotic that it seemed he didn't see the ball till it was very close.

Amen +1

I agree with you. I try to talk about the positives and the negatives. I really liked the pick after seeing more about him. If my post came off negative, it wasn't meant to be at all. I kept reading about his drops, so I had to check out all his drops. They weren't bad at all (except for a couple that were focus related). A high percentage of the 19 were very tough catches. Like a few of us, I posted about his personality and drive (like the letter and his conversation about being a spokesman for his stuttering)

The past two years, Berry has really chose players that love football, high character, and drive. Mason Graham is a hard worker, Judkins hard punishing runner, Schwesinger playing his tail off/playing on basically one leg the whole game, Sanders putting in the offseason work, Fano is a football guy, KCC and his drive, and so on.

I find the Taylon Green pick intriguing. If Todd Monken can somehow harness his talents we could really have a great player on our hands. Tremendous physical abilities and upside!

Absolutely. He may take a few years to develop but that's fine. He's young and a good kid from what I've read and heard. We can even use him as a receiver. Can you imagine a D trying to cover him. KC, Boston and Fanin? Good luck!!!

I do like what has happened over the last 2 years on offense.. They have added people who scored TDs in college:
2025
Quinshon Judkins 50 Tds over 3 years, consistent, 17/17/16 each year
Harold Fannin Jr 22 TDs over 3 years, 11 in his final year
Dillon Sampson 36 TDs over 3 years, 22 in his final year
Dillon Gabriel 189 TDs over his career, 37 his final year
Shedeur Sanders 72 TDs over 2 year career, 41 his final year

2026
KC Concepcion 28 TDs over 3 years, consistent, 10/8/10 each year
Denzel Boston 21 TDs over his career, 20 of them the past two
Taylen Green 94 Tds over his career, 27 his final season

Now, as they develop into pros, some of these should start finding their way into Sunday score boards.

To put that into perspective, Removing Gabriel and Green, you could technically have the others on the field at the same time.

The Browns scored 29 TDs in 2024
The Browns scored 30 TDs in 2025

Taking, just the final year of their college careers before becoming a Brown, they scored a combined 111 TDs, that final year.

The AVERAGE team in the NFL scores 40 TDs per year.. If we could get to just that, with our defense, this team could be contenders. Playoff teams over the past 5 years scored an average of 43 to 51 TDs per regular season. So, it is no wonder this team hasn't been to the playoffs the past two years.

The Baker Mayfield years:
2018 44 TDs
2019 38 TDs
2020 43 TDs Playoff year, with 1 playoff win
2021 Injured year 43 TDs

This team has got to get back to scoring TDs.

Side note, I really hope we don't have him on STs for his first year. He's going to have his work cut out for him integrating into the offense. Whether he/we like it or not, we are so low on dynamic talent in the WR that our rookies are going to be forced into larger roles.

Irish if we can get back to that type of offensive production with our D we can contend for the division. I've already been telling friends of mine the Browns are going to make the playoffs next season. They laugh and think I'm nuts, but I am serious. With the weapons we now have all we need is SS to play decent. It may take a few games for all the new pieces to gel but with Todd Monken I believe this will happen.

We just, as an organization love short WRs and WRs who drop passes.

Got both here.

Ceiling is Zay Flowers, good player but closer to JAG than an All Pro.

Addressed an obvious, desperate need.

I agree with you. Which has me confused as to why everyone is gushing over the players that were picked in this draft as if they're already all pros.

In his 3 seasons, Zay Flowers was in the running for offensive rookie of the year (finished 6 as a non-QB,) and then made 2 Pro Bowls. Seems like more than a JAG.

His ceiling is more Antonio Brown, to me.

But, as others have said, KC's not proven at this level yet. We'll see how it goes.

What??

WR room from shortest to tallest:
KC Concepcion 5'11" - starter
Tylan Wallace 5'11"
Isaiah Bond 5'11"
Jerry Jeudy 6'1" - starter
Cedric Tillman 6'3"
Denzel Boston 6'4" - starter

5'11" isn't short for a receiver, 5'9" is short for a receiver, but there are some in the NFL.

We have no idea what their floor or ceiling is. All we know are the traits we can see on film. If this was Puca Navua's ceiling coming our of college, would he have been a 5th round draft pick? All Berry did was up the odds that we drafted productive receivers, but we have no idea what that ceiling is.

If Zay Flowers IS the ceiling, I will take 1100 yards and 3 TDs all day long... as will I take 900 yards and 10 TDs from Boston. He is here to catch first downs and TDs, but does have the ability to do even more than that, imho.

Get them both going and Jerry Jeudy would make one helluva complimentary receiver.

We haven't even mentioned Fannin...

This could be a really fun team, let's pick up the positivity around here.

Everyone would prefer a receiver that is over 6 foot and 200 pounds. But if the receiver is a Desean Jackson type they will accept 5'-10" and 175 lbs.

More than one body type can be successful at WR. it not the same as OL or DL.

So, everyone is just supposed to stop talking about the Browns now that the draft is over? No opinions because they haven’t played in an actual game?

Opinions have been formed for over a year on these players and then strengthened or weakened based on this past season and the current offseason.

Not knowing what their career holds doesn’t change the potential you either see or don’t see in the newest players.

If you don’t have an opinion either way until they play a game, what draws you to these message boards in the first place?

Look, if KC has any trouble catching the ball I have a very simple solution. Put some of that Alien tape on his fingertips. He'll never drop a pass again!!!!

That's really odd because some of the very same people who were questioning both Fano and KC have suddenly fallen in love with them since they received a Browns jersey.

Did someone put soured milk in your coffee?

People aren't talking about opinions so much as projections. Remember how "masterful" you claim this draft was? Yet we have no idea.

I understand what potential is. I know what that means. And every year I see all 32 teams draft players with that potential or those teams wouldn't draft those players either. I also see a lot of those players who never reach that potential in the NFL. Draft busts litter the league from the first round on down. This FO and team are not exempt from that. That's basic reality.

It seems you think everyone else has a right to their opinion yet I don't have a right to mine. Just because you don't like it and don't agree with it isn't a me issue.

I think you picked up my coffee with the sour milk.

I didn’t want either of these guys, but where they were rated and ranked, to get four of the consensus top 30 guys, how can you be so bah humbug?

I didn’t question your opinion, I questioned your negative demeanor against others with a positive opinion.

So a differing opinion is "negative"? I get it. It's the "step in line with others!" club. Yeah, no.

For years on this board the consensus was that you can't judge a draft for three years. That everything is an unknown until we see the players in the NFL. That even elite talent often times doesn't transfer to the NFL. People never considered that "negative". They considered that reality because it most certainly is.

None of that is "bah humbug". It's obvious that you have missed many of my comments. Much of it has not been negative. Simply put, trying to pretend or convince yourself these players are going to be great and this was somehow a master class in drafting is very premature. But I will say that we now live in a world where being realistic and pragmatic is often times not received well. This is one of those times.

Drafting a player at what is called "a value position" only matters if that player produces well in the NFL. When you draft a player at a "value position" it means one of two things. Either you really pulled one over on the other teams who aren't able to see what you did or the other 31 teams saw something you didn't.

It could go either way. Let me guess. That's negative too?

We as fans only hear the talking heads and have no idea what 32 NFL GM's actually see in these players. Remember how Shedeur Sanders was a first round pick according to the "draft experts"?

So drafting players "consensus top 30 guys" is taking the word of the very same people that said Shedeur Sanders was a projected first round pick. None of us have any idea how NFL teams had any of them ranked.

If you consider reality "negative? That's not my problem.

Seems the times they are a changin.. That doesn't seem to be the consensus any longer.

Look, we are talking about two completely different things.

WE ARE ALL talking about the draft... YOU are talking about judging the draft class.

At this point in time it has everything to do with the players as they are perceived today.

Again... With your way of thinking, we now have absolutely zero to talk about. The draft is over, nothing else can be talked about until they have 3 years under their belt. Turn off your keyboard when it comes to the draft, discussion over.

That's ridiculous.

I'm not going to get into a personal attack.. It is what it is. We disagree on whether or not we should be allowed to have an opinion on the draft before 3 years from now.

There's only one problem with that. I never said anyone isn't allowed to have an opinion different than mine. Mine is just different than some others and it seems you are having at least a mild tantrum about that.


And once again, the perception of who? As best as I can tell people are basing their perceptions on what sports reporters and draft gurus have said about these players. By stat sheets and workout statistics. Even trivializing the stats they don't like while accentuating the stats they do like. The same people who claimed for the most part that Shedeur Sanders was a first or second round pick.

Nobody is trying to prevent you or anyone else from traveling down that bumpy road. Just don't be surprised if you spill your Big Gulp again when you hit the pot holes. It won't be the first time and certainly not the last.

I get it. Many are looking for every reason possible to be giddy about the draft. But gravity is real and at some point you will come back down to earth. But in the mean time, knock yourself out by blaming me for that.
