I’d like to add a bigger wr late. What about Will Sheppard? His best years was at vandy in 2022 when he caught 60 balls for 776 yards and 9 TDs. I’m a vandy fan and this guy can play. Vandy even had will return punts and the qb situation was not very good for his years at vandy. The lights will not be too bright for Sheppard. I’d take him in the 5th. I think he could be a steal and compliment our speed wrs well. Sheppard has a WR1 mentality.

After transferring in from Vanderbilt last offseason, Sheppard put together a solid senior campaign for the Buffs, recording 48 receptions, 621 yards and six touchdowns.

While those numbers might not pop at first glance, they become much more impressive when you consider he was working within a crowded and talent-heavy Colorado receiver room. Despite sharing targets with NFL-caliber receivers like Travis Hunter, Jimmy Horn Jr. and LaJohntay Wester, Sheppard still carved out a defined role as a reliable weapon with his big body and elite athleticism, especially in the red zone.

At 6’4”, Sheppard’s frame already fits the mold of a prototypical outside NFL receiver and his testing numbers at Pro Day only added fuel to his draft stock:

40-Yard Dash: 4.54 seconds
Vertical Jump: 40.5 inches
Broad Jump: 10 feet, 11 inches

His 40 time was respectable given his size, but it’s his explosive lower-body athleticism that really turned heads. His 40.5-inch vertical would’ve ranked top three among receivers at the NFL Combine, while his broad jump would’ve tied for fourth. Sheppard didn’t just test well—he tested like an elite-level athlete.
