With Marquis Brown and Kyler Murray in the NFL, CeeDee Lamb has an important role for the Sooners 2019 offense. Coming off a stellar 2018 with 65 receptions for 1158 yards and 11 touchdowns, Lamb is an impressive prospect for the 2020 class.

Lamb might just be the second-best route runner in the class behind Jerry Jeudy. He displays quick cuts and exceptional speed out of his breaks to create plenty of space not only between him and defenders but also for his quarterback to place the ball. Should Lamb need to fight a defender for position on a contested pass he’s quite capable, despite his slight frame at 6’2″ 190 pounds.

If Lamb can excel as a true number one receiver with Jalen Hurts and the new-look Sooner offense, he’ll find himself easily drafted in the first round in April.
