Didn't see a thread and haven't seen his name on any devy rankings on DLF, so I'll gladly start a topic on this guy.
Massive fan of his game, and I'm surprised there's not much more noise around his name in the dynasty community so far from what I've seen.

-Good routes and even better hands on a 6'0 200lb frame
-Very good body control, can turn and adjust to difficult and wild throws quickly thanks in part to a (reportedly) 40 inch vertical
-Reliable pass catcher who seems to excel at finding and attacking soft spots in coverage
-Comfortable on the outside but can also work the slot and middle of the field and seems able to take a hit
-Has a knack for securing insanely difficult circus catches (his behind the back catch against Florida Atlantic in 2014 was named ESPN's CFB Play of the Year)
-Has improved his production each season so far, despite average at best QB play in Tommy Armstrong with a 65/918/7 line last year. His receptions, yards and TD's have all improved every season from 2013 to 2015
-Ranked by PFF as the highest graded returning WR in college football for 2016
If he improves on his numbers from last season and has a strong senior season, he should end up getting drafted in the round 3-5 range, and could project into a productive WR2 or slot guy (more likely the latter). Reminds me of a bigger Danny Amendola, but I've read even some Chris Collinsworth and Steve Largent comps online.
Anyone else high on him?
