Jahan Dotson was a three-star recruit exiting high school ranked as the 36th receiver in the nation and the sixth-best recruit in Pennsylvania. He’s a former track standout at Nazareth High School, winning the state championship in the 4 x 100 relay and long jump (2016). He also took home the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference title in the 100 meters, 200 meters, and the 4 x 100 relay in his senior year.
Dotson has a solid but not elite prospect profile. The pros are his 90th percentile college dominator (44.3%, per PlayerProfiler.com), 95th percentile college target share (32.5%), and ranking 27th in Yards per route run (per PFF, minimum 50 targets) in 2020. The cons begin with Dotson not being early to declare and continue with his breakout age (20.5, 50th percentile) and disappointing combine metrics. While he logged a 40 time (4.43) in the 85th percentile, he left with a 57th percentile vertical jump (36 inches), 52nd percentile broad jump (121 inches), and 9th percentile three-cone (7.28). Still, Dotson is a skilled player who is garnering fringe first-round or early second-round buzz. His game has some concerning areas, but he’s a player who can be a productive pro and pay off on this sort of draft capital.
