Dexter kind of reminds me a little of Steve Smith. Not very big, but really fast and tough. How reliable are his hands? Could be a big steal in the later rounds (3-5).xnodx

He had a few drops this year. Consistency at WR is his main issue. Once he takes care of that he will be a steal. It looks like he should go in the 3rd-4th round.

I think dexter goes in the 2nd round, early 3rd at latest.. He's a player and he definitely caught some NFL eyes in his performance againest Michigan last year.

One game can make a player go from unknown (possible 6-7 round draft pick) to a round 2-3 pick? We all know Michigan's defense was not very good last year. Don't you think the scouts and GMs realize that as well? I think round 4 at the earliest, but then again some team may fall in love with his speed (e.g. Raiders) and draft him earlier.

Yes they did, but my real question is whether or not 1 game can help your stock jump so much? Draft stock should be based off of more than one game.xnodx He didn't even dominate the SoCon.xconfusedx

No. The Shriner and Senior games along with the combine showcased his talent. Without those then yes 6-7th round. I also think scouts and GMs seen Mich. woop florida in the capital one game.xsmiley_wix

his speed is what is going to get him into the league... many teams are looking for a good return man, and if you get DJ the ball then there are few people that can catch him with his speed

Did i say that one game made the difference? No! That game got him on the radar and he followed through with great season and post season and evaulations...
