Player Notes

Drake London Bio

• London has a very unique skill set and has the potential to be a great NFL receiver, although his potential to bust keeps him from being a high first-round player
• Has great burst and change of direction for his size; which makes him a mismatch in the slot
• Has a huge catch-radius and adjusts well to bad passes
• Runs with physicality and good vision after the catch
• Had over 1000 receiving yards in just eight games over 2021
• lacks speed which makes it a lot harder to succeed in the NFL; he couldn’t have impressed anymore at USC, so he surely can get develop into a very good second option for someone, but will never be a true number one receiver
• Had an issue with dropped passes with eight in his final season
