Travis Hunter (JAC)

There’s an excellent case to be made that Travis Hunter is the best wide receiver in this year’s draft class. He’s a ridiculously fluid athlete with extraordinary ball skills. His route running needs refinement, but it’s scary to think about how good he could become once he develops that part of his game. The big question is Hunter’s role. He played both wide receiver and cornerback in college, and some people believe he’s better as a cornerback. The Jaguars, who traded up to select Hunter second overall in this year’s draft, say they intend to use Hunter primarily as a wide receiver in his rookie year, though Hunter has made it clear he wants to play both ways. Does double duty end up limiting Hunter’s offensive snaps? And what if the Jags eventually decide they want to make Hunter a full-time cornerback who plays, say, 30% of the offensive snaps. That sort of usage could crush his fantasy value. On talent alone, Hunter should be a first-round pick in dynasty rookie drafts, and he’ll probably go in the fourth or fifth round in redraft. But Hunter’s investors may have to live in fear of a role change.

Tet McMillan (CAR)

A 6-foot-5 receiver who topped 1,300 receiving yards in each of his last two college seasons? Yes, please. And now Tetairoa McMillan seems poised to immediately become the Panthers’ No. 1 receiver after Carolina took him with the eighth overall pick in the draft. Tet is a classic X receiver — although he can also be a matchup nightmare as a big slot receiver. He has a planetary catch radius and good, strong hands. A smooth mover for a big receiver, McMillan has advanced route-running chops. He has a good feel for attacking zone coverage, and he’s no shrinking violet when asked to go over the middle. Mike Evans comparisons are inevitable because of McMillan’s height. The comp that makes more sense to me is Tee Higgins, who’s 6-4. Like Higgins, McMillan comes down with more than his fair share of contested catches, but both players have much more to their games than just the ability to high-point the football.
