—Deep threat with an ability to locate and get off the turf to make grabs.
—Great agility and balance; can stop, cut, and explode well.
—Picks up yards after the catch that you don't expect from a big target.
—Natural athlete who plays like a small forward when the ball is in the air.
—Offers big development possibilities once surrounded by NFL coaching and talent.
WEAKNESSES
—Faced low level of competition; beat up on smaller, slower cornerbacks.
—Below-average speed for a starting NFL wide receiver.
—Average short-area quickness.
—Must correct drops from not securing the ball.
—Big target in press coverage who must learn to disengage from cornerbacks.
OVERALL
Gandy-Golden offers a fun collection of traits as a big-bodied deep threat, but his lack of speed and production against NFL-caliber cornerbacks will be a concern. His poor testing at the NFL Scouting Combine won't help alleviate any of those questions. Gandy-Golden is a developmental project with high upside but a low floor.
GRADE: 73
PRO COMPARISON: Allen Lazard/Cody Latimer
