Rodgers is going to be a special weapon at the next level and having watched all the Clemson games this season, I have no clue why he isn't getting the attention as a higher round pick.
Runs a 4.4 40 yard dash and doesn't drop many passes.
In 130 targets he had 4 drops.
He's undersized, not very shifty, not great in and out of his breaks, and has torn an ACL in college. That's why he's down the draft boards.
I think he's a good overall prospect. Problem is, he's primarily been a slot WR in college, so he's not a good option for a team that's paying it's slot WR $11 mil a year and desperately needs an outside receiver, which he doesn't project to. You can use him outside some, but he's not the full time outside WR we need.
