He's got quality hands and a ton of production (averaged 98 receptions / 1,382 yards / 14 TD over his past three seasons), but his flaws have been masked by the level of competition.

As a one-speed player who can't get deep separation, he's limited to the intermediate game. He's fluid enough to run all the shorter routes, but sometimes he runs to spots and doesn't feel coverage well. For his size, he doesn't give much fight after the catch either.

I don't think his speed plays on the outside, and with his imprecise short game, he'll be a fringe draft selection.
