| Height: 6’3 Weight: 200 40-Yard Dash (est.): 4.5 College: Nicholls State |
| Career Stats/Notable – 236 receptions, 3802 yards, 35 touchdownsHad a reception in 50 consecutive games |
| Strengths – Big-bodied receiver with the ability to make combat catches – Inherent ability to catch the football; reliable receiver – Ability to high-point the football for tall passes out of range of defensive backs – Highly productive on the field |
| Areas for Growth – Lacks elite speed, not a burner – Raw talent, needs polish in running his routes – Will struggle to get open against NFL defensive backs – Production is at a small school against lesser competition |
| Best-Case Scenario – Establishes himself as a physical possession receiver able to make contested catches; threat in the red zone |
| Likely Reality – Developmental player who can provide depth at the wide receiver position, but lack of speed will keep him from being a major contributor. |
| Projected Round – 7th round, priority undrafted free agent |
| Potential to Land with the Steelers – Could be a developmental prospect the Steelers consider late in the draft, or as an undrafted rookie if Juju Smith-Schuster departs, as it will create more of a need to retool the wide receiver room. His stature, combined with natural hands, if the team can manufacture his ability to get open in the end zone, could make him a viable option in the passing game. |
