The first receiver to really catch my attention was Jahan Dotson Penn State. At 5'11" 184 LBS he played in 42 games and compiled 183 catches for 2757 yards with 25 TDs. He also had 25 punt returns with a 13.5 average and 1 return touchdown.
Good speed and agility. Can burn a guy deep or at the line. Drops shouldn't be a problem and he excells in getting yards after the catch. Not an ideal contested catch build but he still fights for the ball.
Understands how to read coverage and has no issues about putting his body in harms way to catch a pass. Doesn't have issues getting separation and knows when the quarterback needs help.
So what does he do wrong? He doesn't always play to ability. Blocking is inconsistent and needs to work on cleaning up his route running. And again if you want to play him in the X instead of the slot or Z, then he's undersized.
