I like David Bell. Maybe the Dolphins can get him with that pick in the 50 range.
As I posted last spring regarding Chase, separation is crap. You can't rely on separation in the NFL. You need receivers who can get the ball and defenders who can find the ball. The latter was always Noah's problem at Auburn.
Bell had Plummer at quarterback early season then O'Connell the rest of the way. And that combo allowed Bell to show off everything. With Plummer he was used on lots of quick outs and slants and reverses. Very effective kind of like a smoother but less aggressive version of Deebo Samuel. Then once O'Connell took over it was lots of deep jump ball situations, the type of thing O'Connell throws all the time. Bell excelled there also.
Even though Bell ended up at Purdue he was a high 4 star guy who had big offers including Ohio State.
This is what PFF summarized prior to the 2021 season. I always look for indications in the key categories toward NFL success, more than overall summary:
