It fits best at wide receiver with a fit of 41.2 — 543rd of 1025 at that position, and 80th in Kanto. Its next best use is slot receiver at 40.4.
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.
