One particular set of advanced stats highlighted a particular skillset that Clemson receiver Hunter Renfrow possessed that stood above all other receivers in this draft — he is a 5’10” Red Zone Master.That’s what SB Nation’s Bill Connelly dubbed him while naming him the number three sleeper receiver in this year’s draft.The saying goes you need a nice, big-bodied target to score in the red zone. This list could not push back harder on that truism. Metcalf, the biggest of big-bodied receivers, had the second-worst red zone catch rate and the worst per-target average of the group. David Sills V, another big body, scored an absurd number of touchdowns in college (33 in 2017-18) but required a metric ton of targets to pull it off. Notre Dame’s 6’4 Miles Boykin was also on the low end of the catch rate equation here.Meanwhile Isaiah Johnson Oakland Raiders Jersey , Renfrow was by far the most efficient here, proving mesh does what we think fade routes do in the red zone. Hollywood Brown, the second-best of the bunch from a catch rate perspective, is 5’10 as well. A.J. Brown and Terry McLaurin are 6’0, Terry Godwin 5’11.The Raiders got Renfrow at 149 overall in the 5th round, first collecting picks by trading down in other rounds, including the 158th overall pick in the 5th round, and then jumping up to get their new slot receiver and red zone guy.Follow @LeviDamien Mike Mayock’s first draft since becoming the General Manager of the Raiders is in the books and one thing that became clear as it unfolded was that Mayock enjoyed his first scouting trip in his new job.Mayock went to the college title game between Clemson and Alabama and wound up taking four players who saw action in that game. Defensive end Clelin Ferrell Isaiah Johnson Jersey 2019 , safety Trayvon Mullen and wide receiver Hunter Renfrow came from Clemson and running back Josh Jacobs made the jump from Alabama.Mayock said he “didn’t consciously set out to make that happen,” but he also sounds like he would have been happy with a draft entirely composed of players from the two schools.“I felt it on the field before the game, these were the two best college programs in the country and have been for several years now,” Mayock said, via Albert Breer of SI.com. “And when you walk around on the field before the game and watch these guys warm up, and you do your body types, you’re taking notes — they look like two NFL teams. I said it to somebody, I don’t remember who Cheap Isaiah Johnson Jersey , and I remember thinking to myself, ‘Man, if you just draft from these two teams, you’re gonna do well, forget the rest of the country.”It remains to be seen if Mayock’s right that the quartet’s college success will lead to the same in the NFL, but they’re banking on those winning ways coming with them to Oakland.
