Trey Quinn NFL Draft 2018: Scouting Report for Washington Redskins' Pick

POSITIVES

—Sure-handed with massive 10 ⅛" mitts.

—Uses quick, choppy steps on breaking routes to get open and can separate underneath.

—Exceptional understanding of space, timing and leverage on short-breaking routes.

—Used as an inside- and outside-the-hash receiver at SMU.

—Not afraid to make tough catches away from his frame and in traffic.

NEGATIVES

—Limited speed (4.55) for his size (5'11", 203 lbs) will limit his vertical and YAC ability.

—Might top out as a WR4 and offers no special teams value in the return game.

—Athletic traits hint at issues getting off the line of scrimmage against press coverage.

—Scheme helped create space for him to operate in as a route-runner.

—Only had one solid year of production and could be a product of the system.

OVERALL

It might be stereotypical, but Trey Quinn projects as an NFL slot receiver. He doesn't have the size or speed to operate outside the formation and will get bullied at the line of scrimmage if matched up one-on-one. That said, his hands and quickness make him a viable option as a depth receiver.

GRADE: 5.40 (Round 7)
