Some interesting prospective on FCS players transferring up to FBS teams. I played a round of golf with David Raih, at that time the Arizona Cardinals WR coach (now at Vanderbilt). We discussed players like Jabril Cox and Toure' moving up to FBS teams to supposedly enhance their NFL prospects. He totally agreed that Cox enhanced his NFL grades at LSU (now projected as a second-round pick), but he disagreed on Toure' going to Nebraska. His reasoning was that the NFL scouts already had a high grade on Toure' from his last season performance at Montana, and that Toure' would have had many more opportunities to catch the ball in Montana's offense than in Nebraska's offense. Luke McCaffrey, the Nebraska starting QB, is an average passer, but a good running QB. Thus, Nebraska doesn't throw the ball nearly as much as Montana. He also thinks Toure' is good enough to make an NFL roster.
These NFL scouts will find the talent no matter what level of college football is played. He mentioned Cupp and Bourne at EWU. Just some interesting info from a coach who should know.
