6'1 203 4.49 3.47
Three-year starter that also participated on the school's track and field team. Finished his senior campaign catching 18/259/14.4/2 and also averaged 8/18.5/0 returning kicks. Junior totals were 27/413/15.3/3 after 24/334/13.9/3 the prior season.

Top athlete still learning to become a football player. Effectively uses his body to shield away opponents, adjusts well to the oncoming throw and extends vertically, out jumping opponents for the high pass also getting down to scoop up the low throws. Comes back to the ball, extends his hands and looks the pass in. Effective blocking downfield on either running or screen plays. Lacks overall football instincts and techniques; does not catch the ball cleanly nor does he time or anticipate his receptions well. Sometimes looks lost on the field, does not use the sidelines well and not always on the same page as his quarterback. Never fully transfers his sprint speed onto the football field. Played well during Senior Bowl Week displaying solid route running skills and also catching the ball well but then again, was not effective in the game itself. Needs patience and proper coaching to become a complete football player but posses a lot of untapped potential. Late Fifth Round.
