I really like what I've seen from this kid...seems very mature in interviews...has bloodlines in the NFL with his Dad and brother both playing in the league...although he didn't play against top in talent being at NDSU in the fcs when he went to the senior bowl he held his own very well.
He crushed the combine...6'4" 208lbs...4.36 in the 40yd, 38.5" vertical and over 11' broad jump
At NDSU he contributed in a bunch of different ways...he returned KO, lined up outside and in the slot as WR, lined up in the backfield as a RB or H back on certain plays. He is explosive with the ball in his hands on the jet sweep. His speed shows up on the field as he makes defenders look like they are taking bad angles to tackle him.
I bet the 49ers would love to pair him back up with Trey Lance.
I really think that with the dramatic salary increase that has hit the WR market this off season that WRs will fly off the draft board...so even though the WR position is one of the deepest in the draft I could easily see 15-18 of them being off the board by our 3rd rnd pick.
I would not be upset if we took him in the 1st. Elite physical tools, good bloodlines, mature, and is a very versatile player who can be deployed in a Deebo Samuel type fashion
