CeeDee Lamb | WR | Oklahoma
Height | 6-2
Weight | 191
Strengths
There may not be a more dynamic offensive weapon in this year’s NFL Draft who could very well come back for his senior season with not much left to prove. He followed up a monster sophomore campaign with an even better junior season. He has the tools to be a mismatch at the next level.
First and foremost, Lamb has to be a top the list in terms of his explosiveness. In space he is an absolute nightmare for any defender to take down in space. He uses his balance and vision to set up defenders down the field allowing him to put pressure on defenses. His footwork and balance makes him a handful to deal with.
Aside from having the athleticism to make the great plays after the catch, his hands are his best weapon. Lamb is able to use his quick hands to fight off defenders at the line to get a clean break and handles press coverages. He is an elite player when tracking the ball in the air and will go up for the ball. He isn’t a player who waits for the ball as he attacks it in the air. He is a quarterback’s best friend because he is as reliable as they come.
Weaknesses
Truth be told there aren’t a lot of weaknesses in his game. He will need to work on his route running at the next level and that is where he will get even better. Lamb will need to expand his route tree, at Oklahoma it left a lot to be desired.
While being explosive, he doesn’t have top end speed like a Tyreek Hill but Lamb wins with technique and football IQ. That is how he is able to create separation for his quarterback. Once Lamb is able to get going though, look out because he will build up speed down the field.
Bottom Line
Lamb is dynamic and at the next level there is no doubt that he can be a difference maker. Plenty of teams in the NFL could use a talent such as CeeDee. Lamb has balance, hands, physicality and a monster after the catch.
