Jalin Hyatt Receives First-Round Mock
Tennessee wide receiver Jalin Hyatt has been a hot topic of conversation in the predraft process. Some are split on his size, yet others are enamored with his capabilities as a downfield threat.
The NFL Combine will be a proving ground for Hyatt. According to reports, he expects to run a sub-4.30 second forty-yard dash, which would be one of the fastest times in the entire pre-draft process. He logged 67 catches for 1,267 yards and 15 touchdowns. His downfield tracking and elite speed make him a natural fit in an NFL offense, and evaluators should love him after getting him in on private workouts.
The Athletic's Diante Lee recently released a mock draft and had Hyatt in the first round. The Dallas Cowboys selected Hyatt with the No. 26 overall pick in this recent mock draft, pairing him with star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and proven quarterback Dak Prescott.
"Jalin Hyatt could be the vertical threat the Cowboys lost when they traded Amari Cooper last offseason. Hyatt is going to run one of the best times at the combine, and he’s a scary player at top speed. There’s plenty of potential to glean from his skill set as a complete route runner, too. The best version of Hyatt would pair comfortably with CeeDee Lamb as a 1-2 punch for Dak Prescott."
