Danny Gray
Posted: Fri Apr 22, 2022 8:53 amDraft "analysis/predictions" from CBS Sports writer Josh Edwards:
Tyreek Hill Award: Danny Gray, WR, SMU
Late-round receiver most likely to become an All-Pro
Wilson: Gray is only 5-foot-11, 186 pounds, and his frame is what could contribute to him falling to Day 3. But there's so much to love about his game. For starters, he's a burner -- Gray blazed a 4.33 40 at the combine -- and more importantly, he plays that fast on tape. He's a legit home-run threat on deep balls with high-point-catch skills. He can also take a slant to the house because, despite his size, he has tackle-breaking ability, and he only needs a couple of steps to hit top end. Gray is an asset in the return game, too. He'll need to improve his precision as a route-runner, and getting stronger to fend off NFL cornerbacks should be a priority, but that's why he's not going on Day 1. The team that lands him will have a ready-made No. 3 wideout who can stress defenses down the field.
