Young looks the part immediately at 6-foot-4 and 218 pounds. He gives the receiver room another big target, plays through contact and is willing to block, which is probably how a fourth-round rookie earns early snaps on this team. The concern is that the college production was fairly modest—1,437 yards across three seasons—and a leg injury held him to eight games in his last year at Georgia. I have him at a five because this is still projection. The catch radius is real, but he has to show he can separate from NFL corners instead of living on contested catches.

Strengths: Young has excellent size, long arms and the body control to finish through contact near the boundary. He can contribute as a blocker and offers an obvious red-zone profile even before the full route tree develops.

Weaknesses: He does not consistently create clean separation, and his final college season was interrupted by a leg injury. Limited peak production means he must prove the physical traits translate rather than relying on size alone.
