Jalen Reagor. Pick Analysis. Junior. 872. Scouting Report. Wide Receiver. 1. player

Another underclassman on this list hails from TCU, wide receiver Jalen Reagor. He’ll only be a junior this upcoming fall, but when the NFL comes calling, you better answer the phone.

Reagor’s production hasn’t directly resulted in many wins for the Horned Frogs, but he’s put up consistent numbers since stepping on campus. As a freshman in 2017, Reagor tallied only 33 catches for 576 yards, but scored eight touchdowns. Nearly doubling both his catches (72) and receiving yards (1,061) last season was a welcoming sight for head coach Gary Patterson, but after scoring eight times as a freshman, only reaching pay dirt nine times was a bit of a let-down in 2018.

It’s not just about catching the ball with Reagor, though. He’s also been an asset on jet-sweeps and reverses, as well as in the return game. This type of versatility can be a game-changer, and Reagor has that extra gear to make things happen with the ball in his hands.

Any NFL team looking for a 5-foot-11 wide receiver who can play outside or in the slot, while also running reverses and returning kicks, should be salivating at the thought of Reagor foregoing his senior season and entering the 2020 NFL Draft. If he opts to return, though, it’ll just mean more headaches for Big 12 coaches.
