DeVonta Smith, Alabama
Matt Miller says: "The best hands in the draft belong to DeVonta Smith. He has a huge catch radius on a smaller wide receiver frame thanks to his sticky hands, concentration and body control."

Pat Freiermuth, Penn State
Matt Miller says: "College tight ends are becoming smaller and more scheme-dependent, but Freiermuth brings throwback blocking ability and is a big man in the red-zone passing game."
