B.J. LOVETT
Position: WR
Class: Sr
School: Michigan St.
Conference: Big Ten
Ht., Wt.: 6'2½, 208
40 Time: 4.55
Grade: 3.02

BIO: Part-time starter who caught 33 passes for 383 yards with four scores as a senior, after 10-82-0 in 2001. Used sparingly to return kicks in the past.

POSITIVES: Nice-sized receiver best in the underneath coverage. Settles into the open spot in the defense, extends his hands and catches the pass away from his frame. Uses his body to shield away opponents, reaches back and makes the errant throw running laterally. Exposes himself to make the tough grab in a crowd.

NEGATIVES: Lacks the strong hands and drops some catchable throws. Also does not have the top end speed.

ANALYSIS: Size is intriguing and gives him an advantage for a team that needs a possession receiver but must show well next July in camp.

PROJECTION: Undrafted Free Agent
