It fits best at wide receiver with a fit of 66.2 — 140th of 1025 at that position, and 27th in Paldea. Its next best use is quarterback at 62.8.
Half the grade is Speed and the rest is a blend of hands. Height finally matters: tall receivers win jump balls, and anything past 7'3" stops helping. Two start on every team, so the position runs deep in a draft.
