Nick Easley, WR, Iowa

Though the Iowa passing attack isn’t always the best showcase for receivers, Nick Easley did a fantastic job as a slot player.

Easley has fantastic quickness, very good speed, and strong hands as well as natural vision after the catch.

A strong route runner, Easley has plenty of competition with guys who are better athletes, but he is so solid all-around as a slot player he has a chance to make an impact right away.

Playing in a pro style offense at Iowa definitely helps Easley transitioning to the pro game, and he’s got a great slot player to learn from here with Cole Beasley coming over to the Bills this offseason.
