High school receiver who also played basketball and competed in track and field as a Texas prep. Played 12 games as a true freshman in 2008, recording four receptions for 22 yards (5.5-yard average) and zero touchdowns. Needed surgery to repair a high right ankle sprain in the spring of ’09. Played all 13 games in the season and snagged 3-25-0 (8.3). Broke out in ’10 — was the Tigers’ MVP after racking up 90-762-5 (8.5) in 13 starts. Finished as the Tigers’ second-leading receiver in ’11 after grabbing 50-523-3 (10.3) in 13 starts at tight end. Team captain. Graduated in December.

Quick-handed, natural catcher — can stab the ball out of the air. Adjusts well to its flight, tracks it very well in the air and times jumps. Makes difficult catches look easy — stretches out and snags the ball. Good field awareness. Can dot the “i”. Willingly enters traffic and will catch the ball in a crowd. Exceptional straight-line speed. Good competitiveness, work ethic and durability.

Was seldom used to block and it clearly showed in Combine blocking drills — has no anchor substance or power in his body and is too soft-tempered in his approach on the second level. Is not an elite athlete. Functioned in a simple scheme and is not a savvy route runner — will need to learn how to diagnose coverages. Shows little strength or creativity after the catch. Can secure the ball more tightly (stripped twice vs. Kansas State).

Lanky, underdeveloped, finesse seam catcher whose production slipped as a senior after QB Blaine Gabbert departed early. Is a converted receiver who lines up detached and will not factor as a blocker but knows how to work the seams and can contribute in the slot.
