#8 Trevon Grimes VS ole miss (2020)

#8 Trevon Grimes 2020 highlights

Strengths: He has a big-frame and a receiver that can dominate across the line of scrimmage. He has a long stride that eats up much of the field in his routes, but he does not have explosive speed. He can dictate his routes for defenders playing in off coverages to make timely catches with twitch moves off the line. He has strong hands that high points the ball and bring it in. Rarely will he use his body to make catches. His best playability is to threaten the defenses with vertical routes. He tracks the ball well, will win most 50/50 balls, but will out challenge the defender or back-shoulder passes. He uses his big frame to screen off the defender and roll off to make extra yardage. He is a willing participant as a blocker that will provide extra yardages for the runner.

Weaknesses: He suffered an ACL injury early in his career, and there is speculation that he has not fully regained his skills before the injury. He has limited explosiveness, and his athletic ability is in question. He does not possess the vertical speed to takes the lid off defenses. He has a limited route-tree, and he has shown inconsistency on the field. His twitchy route-running will be useless at the next level; it takes too long for the route to develop. Until he resumes his playability before his knee injury, he will have to settle in the slot at the next level.

Draft Projection: 4th - 7th Round
