Todd McShay has Tillman in his top 30

McShay's updated NFL draft rankings: Three QBs in the top 10 and a new WR1
21. Cedric Tillman, WR Tennessee
HT: 6-3 | WT: 215 | Grade: 89

Tillman is a physical receiver with impressive route-running savvy, a big catch radius and very strong hands. He's not a burner, but he does an excellent job tracking the deep ball and using his length to win on 50-50 opportunities. He has a natural feel for contorting his body, timing his jumps and shielding defenders. But Tillman lacks ideal elusiveness. He has 17 catches for 246 yards and a TD, but he has missed a few games with a left ankle injury.

Levis but no Hooker in top 10
Get out of heeeeere

McShay was at the damn Ole Miss Kentucky game.

And he's STILL touting Levis??????

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Cedric is gonna get paid eventually so good for him. I don't care about how elusive his is. When healthy all he does is get open snagging deep passes. I will never claim to know how to grade college QBs and their NFL potential, but WTH are the scouts seeing that I can't about Will Levis? Good enough to get drafted? Yes. Number 1 overall?

looking at that list makes me sad seeing Jared Verse on it.

This tweet sums it up pretty well, no way I would touch Levis with the #1 pick

 

[NighthawkVol]

I wouldn’t draft a WR 1st round unless he’s a Randy Moss type talent. I’m sure a lot of GMs agree. So that hurts Tillman some…in other words, if he goes anywhere in the 1st round, that’s saying a lot about what NFL teams think of his ability. Hope it happens.

If I’m taking an upside QB, I’m going with Anthony Richardson WAY before Levis.

There hasn't been a Randy Moss type talent since Randy Moss.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Yep. And my Titans passed on him for Kevin Dyson.

From what I’ve seen he is overrated badly

Dyson was alright but he wasn’t Randy Moss

 

[NighthawkVol]

Moss would've gotten that extra yard in the Super Bowl against the Rams. Actually, Moss would have been on the sidelines because the game would've been on ice before the 4th quarter.

Hendon Hooker is a not a 1st round QB. He's not a second round QB.
College production does not = 1st round draft pick.
Troy Smith (Heisman winner) was a 5th round pick.
Jordan Lynch (Heisman runner up in 2013) didn't even get drafted.
Colt McCoy (Heisman runner up) was a 3rd round pick.

Hooker is great. But he's not a throw a 18 yard out in tight coverage great. I love Hooker and will get bashed for not wearing orange glasses, ha. Hooker is a 4th or 5th round QB.

Levis has thrown for more than 220 yards once vs an SEC team. And he blew that last game. Couldn’t even wait for his WR to get set.

Looks like a poor man’s Baker Mayfield.

Stand by my comment for the posted article. Levis in top 10 but no Hooker.
No way Levis had that much upside

Wow that is really crazy. Compare Levis to past #1 overall QBs and it doesn't add up. AR is simply undraftable as a QB in my opinion.

Yes he does.

Will Levis Quarterback Kentucky | NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report

Look at Josh Allen’s college stats. Not comparing him to Josh Allen, just saying, scouts are looking at more than stats.

Goodness, now you think I love Levis. To be clear, Levis will go 8 for 21 with 3 picks in Knoxville

 

[foolonthehill]

Yep. And my Titans passed on him for Kevin Dyson.

Right or wrong, there were questions of character. Teams were reluctant to use a high pick on him.

There's a lot of starting WRs in the NFL that are nowhere near Randy Moss type talent.

 

[Vol865]

Yes he does.

Bust

If we’re talking the 90s and early 2000s than yeah…That doesn’t align in regards to the landscape of the nfl today. WRs are much more valuable than RBs at this point. On offense they rank only behind QB (yes they’re more valuable than OT IMO).
