BIO: Former starting QB at MSU who moved to receiver as a senior and proceeded to lead the team with 52 receptions for 672 yards and five scores, earning second team All-Conference honors along the way. Passing totals as a junior were 54.8 percent-1,459-12-10.

POSITIVES: Nice-sized athlete who took well to receiver last season. Fluid releasing off the line of scrimmage, displays solid footwork into his breaks and stays low exiting routes. Shields away opponents with his large frame, extends and adjusts backwards to the errant throw. Consistently catches the ball away from his body and works to keep the play in bounds running after the catch.

NEGATIVES: Must become more aware and make himself an available target. Lacks the top end speed and ability to make plays deep into the secondary.

ANALYSIS: Flashed skill as a senior, yet at the same time built consistency at his new position. Must refine his overall receiver techniques, but potentially a solid fourth receiver at the next level.

PROJECTION: Mid Seventh Round
