Draft Scouting Report:
Rating: 77.67 (Chance to start)
Pro Comparison: Makai Polk
Accolades:
- Career: Most receiving touchdowns in school history
- 2021-22: Two-time first-team All-ACC
Summary:
A.T. Perry is a tall, spindly, noticeably flexible long-striding outside WR. His speed looks good, but not great, on film, although it does sneak up on some DBs. He has awesome balance to stay on his feet against ultra-physical CBs but needs to get considerably stronger. Tiny route tree. He will change directions or find space much quicker than most tall, lanky WRs. He's not a contested-catch dominator. His height, length, and surprising lack of stiffness as an athlete make him an intriguing prospect.
Strengths:
- Tall with long, flexible frame
- Great balance to deal with press and physicality through the route
- Huge catch radius
- Capable athlete after the catch with wiggle and vision
Weaknesses:
- Ran small collection of routes in college
- Despite his height, not a contested-catch dominator
- Has to get much stronger to win in the NFL
Combine Results:
- 40-Yard Dash: 4.47 seconds
- Vertical: 35 inches
- Broad Jump: 11 feet, 1 inches
