Dont'e Thornton Jr.

Long, linear target whose primary function is to take the top off of defenses. Thornton can play through early contact and works past tight man coverage. He's talented at stacking cornerbacks and tracking the ball when he finds top positioning. He can strike over the top or with routes allowing him to catch on the move. His route tree is limited, so two-high safety looks could park him in the garage. He's average after the catch on short throws but plays as big as he measures, winning contested catches on all three levels. Thornton is a low-volume target with erratic production, but teams looking for vertical juice should have him on their boards. --By Lance Zierlein
