Overview

Stanley Morgan Jr. is an underrated receiver in this draft.  He saved his best season for last.  He had 70 receptions for 1,004 yards and seven TD’s in 2018.  He leaves Nebraska as the career record holder in receptions (189) and receiving yards (2,747) while ranking second in school history with 22 career TD’s.  He has size, good ball skills and is a precise route runner.  He struggles against press coverage and therefore would be better utilized as a slot WR at the next level.
