Wide Receiver
Even after the trade for Stefon Diggs, the Texans could still add a WR in one of the best classes of WR in a long time.
#45 – Troy Franklin, Oregon
From my scouting report on Franklin…Although he has a bit of a slight build, Franklin understands the nuances in how to play receiver. He runs his routes with varied tempos. He doesn’t waste time getting on the toes of defensive backs. He has glue sticks for hands and tremendous ball skills with the ball in the air.
– Acceleration into separation
– Deep ball tracking skills
– Tougher than expected with such a lithe body
– A huge problem after the catch with his speed and explosiveness AWAY from DBs
#73 – Tez Walker, North Carolina
From my scouting report on Walker…Walker was arguably the most explosive and fastest receiver in Mobile, but he’s struggling to complete plays with drops at the most inopportune times. He’s making tough catches look easy, but dropping well thrown passes. Now, he did run one of the SWEETEST double moves for a TD, making the easy catch too. But, it’s got to be more consistent.
– Track speed (did register 23.1 mph on GPS), dude can FLY – legit 4.4 play speed
– Significant deep threat on the day he walks into an NFL building
– Strong hands to snatch passes, but has concentration drops that are concerning
#83 – Johnny Wilson, Florida State
From my scouting report on Wilson…At the Senior Bowl, he was a REALLY tough cover. He showed how strong his hands are and was difficult to cover in all areas of the field. Trying to figure out where to put him in my Harris 100 is a bit confusing because he’s not twitchy but he’s fast enough when he can build up his speed. But, in Mobile, he was efficient in and out of his breaks, snatched the ball away from his body and got separation throughout the week.
