3. BUFFALO WR | IT'S DRAFT MONTH

EPISODE 3

Buffalo's wide receivers were a big reason why the Bulls finally got back to the MAC Championship scene for the first time in a long time back in 2018. Anthony Johnson, K.J. Osborn, Charlie Jones all left after that year, but Antonio Nunn stuck around for his junior and senior seasons. The team threw the ball less, ran the rock more, and Nunn was used more than any of the other receivers on the few pass plays UB did call over those two years. Now that we're in 2021, Buffalo doesn't have a ton of leadership/experience in this position group, so now we're left wondering who the best playmakers will be out of this position? Trevor Wilson might be the best pass-catching option, but how much more important will run blocking be again for receivers to even see the field?

The NFL Draft begins at the end of this month. Like any year there are MACtion prospects who will most likely have their names heard on Day 3, either as late-round draft picks or undrafted free agent signees. Whether things go as planned for them or not, the draft weekend is not always the most important weekend of their lives. For most of these guys, it's just a starting point for them to see how far they still have to go. And guys like Mathew Sexton, former EMU receiver, just might have to wait a year after the draft before an NFL team finally signs them (in his case, the Steelers).
