4. Treylon Burks, Wide Receiver, Arkansas

At the time of writing, Burks seems to be the most likely receiver option to make it to the Cowboys at 24. The Razorback is a physical specimen at the position at he is 6-3, 225 pounds, and has been compared to Deebo Samuel by many.

While Samuel is certainly quicker than Burks, they could both be used similarly. This past season in the SEC, Burks had 66 receptions for 1,104 yards and 11 touchdowns. He also uses his size to make big plays downfield.

Burks is a big-time yard after catch player. Just getting the ball into his hands can turn into a game-changing play. He was used in the slot, outside, and even out of the backfield during his time at Arkansas.

Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore will need to find an efficient way to use Burks if he is Dallas’s pick. Allowing him to be explosive in this offense will be key in making him worth the 24th overall pick.
