Strengths: Hunter is an incredibly unique offensive weapon with elite spatial movement skills.

Tetairoa McMillan
WR | ARIZONA | 6’5 | 212

Strengths: McMillan has an enormous frame and uses it well to extend and pluck the ball out of the air. He’s excellent at the catch point and understands how to create space with his size. He’s been highly productive in college, and his YAC ability is impressive—especially given his build. Weaknesses: McMillan lacks refined route salesmanship, and his ability to separate in man coverage is limited. His top-end speed is modest, and he’ll need to improve against press coverage.

He also brings surprising YAC ability that’s rare for a receiver of his build. Weaknesses: He lacks true top-end speed and twitch and won’t overwhelm defenses athletically.
