Draft Scouting Report:
Rating: 74.48 (Chance to start)
Pro Comparison: Dazz Newsome
Summary:
Rakim Jarrett is a springy, inside-out WR with a well-rounded game, but he lacks a standout trait or specialty. He has good burst off the line, but he wasn't pressed often in college. He has vertical flashes but not a burner. He has some YAC ability but inconsistent. His athletic twitch is there and useful in jet sweep/screen game. Hands are an issue. He had concentration drops and didn't shine downfield in traffic. He didn't build on a strong start to his college career. He's still a relatively young prospect with enough athleticism to separate in the NFL and will flash in YAC scenarios.
Strengths:
- Well-rounded game
- Flashed in YAC scenarios
- Well-proportioned frame with good athletic traits
Weaknesses:
- Never built on early-career productivity
- Hands and overall ball skills are clear problem
- Doesn't have a trademark speciality or physical trait
Combine Results:
- 40-Yard Dash: 4.44 seconds
- Vertical: 35.5 inches
- Broad Jump: 10 feet, 3 inches
