He is coming off a decent season of 618 receiving yards for a 3rd receiver. Expected to be a cap casualty. His senior year, he led the SEC in receiving yards. He was a JUCO transfer from noted power Tyler and has offers from Oregon, TCU, Boise St. before choosing A&M.
He projects more of a slot receiver not a deep threat. He has good size at 6'3" with a weight of 196 lbs runs about a 4.55 40 yard dash. He sometimes is a body catcher instead of using his hands which can allow for bobbles or bounces off equipment. I can see the Bengals going after him but he would be a number 3 receiver for us.
I would love if the Bengals could trade back and sign Kyle Pitts in the first round and follow that up with Rashod Bateman in the second round if he is there. Rashod is 6'2" and weighs 235 lbs and will probably run a 4.42 40 yard dash. His highlight film is impressive. He is a great route runner and he catches with his hands. He would compete with Boyd and Higgins to be our number 1 receiver. Would love to have Burrows options to be Boyd, Higgins, Bateman and Pitts.
Lets draft a lineman like Eichenberg or Walker Little in the 3rd round.
