Overall
Rashod has ideal size to be an NFL receiver. He has a great release and quick feet to gain early separation after the snap. He may lack long speed but makes up for it with his ability to win contested catches. Like Ja’Marr Chase, Bateman doesn’t have many weaknesses to his game. Come draft time he should be a day 1 pick.
