2021 NFL Draft: Florida State WR Tamorrion Terry scouting report
Strengths
Take one look at Tamorrion Terry and you see a guy that is built for the next level. He stands at 6-foot-4, weighs a solid 2010 pounds and he pairs that size with legit NFL speed that can sometimes be lacking with long striders like Terry.
He is the prototype for what you want in a jump ball receiver and does well to use his blend of size, strength, and speed to win when the ball is in the air.
While we haven’t seen a ton of nuance in his route tree, he has shown that he can sink his hips and dig into quick-twitch routes when asked, but his bread-and-butter is as a downfield threat.
In 2019, Terry caught 9 touchdowns for an average of a staggering 58 yards per reception. He is incredibly slippery for a longer player and can accelerate in a hurry once the ball is in his hands, which is made clear when you go back and watch those scoring plays.
I love so much of what Tamorrion Terry provides as a prospect but there is still one major area he needs to show improvement in if he is going to start turning heads ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft.
Weaknesses
For as many great catches as Tamorrion Terry has pulled down in his career, he has had some incredibly frustrating drops as well. For the most part, they seem to be more of a concentration issue than anything, but he has left some big plays out on the field because of it, including what would have been a walk-in touchdown against Georgia Tech a week ago.
Terry can also be a little late with his hands at times, meaning the ball can get into his body or sail over his shoulder, giving the defender a better chance at making a play on the football. With his frame, Terry should be getting those hands out quickly to ensure he is the only one that can get to it, which could help out with his drop issue as well.
Projection
Tamorrion Terry has all of the tools to be a Day-1 prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft but will need to show improved concentration and technique in his hands if he is going to reach that goal.
Right now, I think Terry is firmly in the second-round conversation but has plenty of time to improve his stock.
