I feel like someone with that size, speed, and hands while also playing in the Big 12 should be able to produce more than just 675 yards in 12 games.
Might be worth gambling a 6th rounder or 7th rounder, but I wouldn't spend any earlier pick on BFW.
Since the comparison to Tee has been made, coming out of college Tee's last year he had 3 less receptions than Ford-Wheaton at 59 vs 62 but still put up 1167 yards for a 18.1 YPC average with 13 TDs compared to Ford-Wheaton's 675 yards, 10.9 YPR and 7 TDs. Thats just a different level of production for Tee. If Ford-Wheaton cant end up running a 4.3x what really is his ceiling? Lifetime special teams player? Ford-Wheaton would need to run a 4.3x before I would even use a 7th round draft pick for him.
