The Good: Fast, fast, fast, fast, FAST. The pressure was on – relatively speaking – at the combine to see if he really did have the otherworldly wheels, and then …

Throw in the explosion in the leaping drills, and he’s got the freakish skills that can’t be coached up or taught. But he’s more than just a one-trick guy – he’s a fully-formed NFL receiver who won’t just be used to take the top off the D.
He averaged 17.5 yards per catch on his 98 career grabs with 24 scores, and he would’ve done a whole lot more if he wasn’t surrounded by guys who needed the ball, too. There’s a chance he catches a whole lot more passes in a whole lot more ways at the next level.

The Not-So-Good: Don’t expect him to be a 100-catch guy. No, he’s not going to be just a deep threat, but he’s not going to be a tough target who muscles his way for the ball, either. He’s not likely going to be a true No. 1 guy, but …

It’s a deep draft for receivers, and there are others who can do more and bring more to their respective overall games, but … 4.27. Drop mic.
Projected Round: First
