Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma State
Check out Bryant’s fantasy player profile for the 2010 NFL season here.
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210
40 Time: 4.54
Projected Round: 1-2
Bryant is a gifted athlete who could use another year at Oklahoma State to really polish his skills, but will garner a first round selection nonetheless. His size is a great asset and he uses it often. He excels at meeting the ball at the highest point and using his big body to box out defenders and come back to the quarterback on curl routes.
Although he gets off the line of scrimmage quicker than most, he lacks the deceptive speed that a lot of teams strive for. He isn’t the best route runner but he rarely drops balls. He has excellent vision when streaking down the field, keeping a close eye on the sideline and knowing where the man-to-man coverage is going to be.
He needs to improve his YAC and do a better job at reading zone coverage but he makes up for that by coming back to the quarterback and giving him an out when he’s facing a tenacious pass rush.
Bryant will be a top pick because of his size. In a league where the dominant receivers are 6-2 and beyond and upwards of 230 pounds, Bryant has the potential to eventually join their ranks.
Look for a team who needs a number two receiver NOW to target him.
