Overview

Wesley decided to forgo his last two seasons of college eligibility.  He had an outstanding redshirt sophomore season when he caught 88 receptions for 1,410 yards and 9 TD’s as the X receiver.  He is a lengthy WR with excellent ball skills.  He shows quickness and is a good route runner.  He lacks speed.  Therefore, he projects as a possession receiver at the next level.  He is one of my favorite day 3 receivers in this draft.  He has the tools and the upside to develop into a solid No.2 wideout at the next level.
