WR is one of the hardest positions to evaluate outside of a few guys that only come around once in a while (A.J., Julio, Patterson, etc.) who are "can't miss". Florida has loaded up on elite receivers for awhile but can't find adequate ones in games.

We generally have done pretty well anyway with highly recruited receivers. Mitchell, Terry, Rumph, JSW, and to a certain extent Reggie Davis and LeMay, were all highly recruited receivers (top 250-300 players, Rumph was the top JUCO WR). We've also hit on Conley and Bennett, and Wooten is serviceable.

We've got 2 good ones committed right now and one in 2015. They fit what were looking for (tall, lanky, sure hands). Shakenneth Williams is going to be good for us. Think Conley with more burst. We're still in the hunt for Josh Malone as well.

How can that be possible

What is there outside of physicality, agility, speed, timing, and hands. Seems like it would be the easiest to evauate. Definitely one of the least cerebral. WRs as a whole seem to be the dumbest corp on the field normaly

Production seems to speak for itself with only a few variables to consider at every level of play

Just seems like we hang our hat on "serviceable" and hope for some standouts. And thats not to say we dont end up with some guys i really like every season. Im talking from a recruiting standpoint
