Rome Odunze would be the clear WR1 in most drafts, but he’s become the forgotten man in this year’s receiver group.
Rome Oduzne finished with 92 catches for 1,640 yards and 13 touchdowns as part of a phenomenal season for the Washington Huskies offense last year.draft classes, but in a year with Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers he’s become the forgotten man in the wide receiver group.However, with other avenues to wager on Odunze’s draft landing spot, is there value to be found elsewhere? Let’s dive in and find out.At 6-foot-3 and 212 pounds, Odunze has the frame of a prototypical X receiver.
However, Odunze is much more than a contested-catch demon who thrives against press coverage. At the combine, he ran a 4.03-second 40-yard dash, which was in the 91st percentile for the wide receiver position. That elite agility translates to his rare route-running ability for a player his size. Harmon tracked Odunze in the 80th percentile or better for route-running success against both man and zone coverage.
I wouldn’t completely rule out the Titans at No. 7, although they are -330 on DraftKings to use their first pick on an offensive lineman, which is a clear need. Given the Falcons’ needs on the defensive side of the ball, it would be a surprise if they spent a fourth straight first-round pick on a skill position player, but crazier things have happened.
