Two-year starter who was a second team All-Conference choice last year as a junior when he caught 65/1,059/16.3/3. Totaled 49/760/15.5/6 as a red shirt sophomore, after 27/269/12.0/2 during his first-year on the football field. Saw minimal action returning both punts and kicks early

Consistent, reliable target that makes all the catches. Quick releasing off the line of scrimmage, sells his routes and extends his hands away from his body, giving the quarterback a big target. Looks the pass in, displays focus, concentration and effective running after the catch. Goes over the middle and consistently finds the open spot on the field. Times and anticipates his receptions well, adjusts to the errant throw and makes the difficult catch in traffic. Lacks the top end speed, not getting separation down the field nor does he always win out in battles. Needs more on the field experience but a solid receiver with a good amount of upside potential. Mid to late Second Round.
