Depth of Ohio State Wide Receiving Unit
Already a polished athlete, the Pennsylvania product scored an alarming 22 TD's his junior year on 78 catches with 1524 yards. He has a mean fade route, shown on the first play of his tape. He's also a thrill to watch with the ball in his hands. He can run route across the entire field and might be most dangerous when he's working in between the hashes.
With a big body and excellent vision, he is well equipped to make linebackers and safeties miss, and absorb their hits when he gets swarmed. Corner routes look like a favorite of Fleming's, and he's shown relaxed confidence in his over the shoulder catches.
