Take everything that was just said about how great of a teammate Lamb is. Then add some of that DeSean Jackson-type breakaway speed, and you’ve got Henry Ruggs III. Alabama fields a team full of pro talent every season, so you can get lost in Tua Tagovailoa and Jerry Jeudy, but Ruggs is the number-one receiving threat on over 110 of the other programs in college football if he plays anywhere other than Tuscaloosa.

He’s six-feet tall. He weighs 190 pounds. He could surprise some people with a 40-yard dash time of 4.4 seconds or something in that area. The resume is nice too. In 2019, he racked up 40 receptions for 746 yards, and he found his way to paydirt seven times. He’s graded everywhere from a first-round to a second-round selection.

He’ll be a game-changer at the next level, and he can take the top off of any defense in the current NFL.
