Scouting Report

Hoping he makes a full recovery from his torn ACL, Oklahoma State’s Tylan Wallace was on pace for back-to-back Biletnikoff-worthy seasons with his Cowboys. With that being said, if Wallace still decides to come out for the 2020 NFL Draft, he will certainly hear his name called within the first two days of the draft.

While he struggles to separate from coverage and could sharpen his route running a bit, Wallace maintains excellent body control, especially for a 6-0, 185 pound receiver. Wallace has elite catch comfortability in tight windows, with elite top end speed at the top of his routes; he is a big time playmaker in space, with the ability to go the distance with just a bit of room.

Last year as a sophomore, Wallace finished the season with 1,491 yards receiving and 12 touchdowns on 86 catches. In just nine games in 2019, Wallace still managed to average 17 yards per catch, tallying 903 yards receiving and eight touchdowns on 53 catches for the Oklahoma State offense.

Coming in with an early third round grade, Wallace will be a hot commodity should he fully recover from his ACL injury. Will he take another year to recover and return to school, or will he take his talents to the pros?
