Found this article detailing why Dupre fell to the 7th: http://walterfootball.com/ws2017mdupre.php
Basically the NFL thinks he's an entitled punk after being a 5 star in HS, who didn't produce enough in college.
Obviously his QB situation was rough, but another WR in this draft had similar circumstances: Travin Dural.
Comparing their stats, Dupre was clearly better:
2016
Dupre: 41/593/3
Dural: 28/280/1
2015:
Dupre: 43/698/6
Dural: 28/533/3
Clearly the mental makeup is an issue but many good WRs are divas. I think we got a steal.
