JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — As the 2024 NFL Draft quickly approaches, teams looking to add a pass catcher will have a plethora of options at wide receiver. The draft possesses every type of wide out, from gadget players to big-bodied pass catchers, to speedsters.
Rome Odunze shines in terms of physicality and catch-point ability, offering a 70.8 contested catch rate. The Washington wideout offers a blend of size, athleticism, and tracking skills for high production. Despite being a stellar prospect, he needs to improve his separation ability, and overall explosiveness. Odunze offers a rare but highly sought-after trait: his impressive ability to win at the catchpoint. Whether it's on vertical throws or trying to get to the football through traffic in the middle of the field, Odunze offers plenty of physicality and size that allows him to go up and reel in the catch with ease.
