10’11”– Broad
4.50- 40 time

NFL Comparison: Allen Robinson, Keenan Allen, AJ Green

We have nothing but good things to say about Josh Doctson. Just look at the NFL players we compare him to. Doctson is the No.1 wide receiver in this year’s class, and we’re willing to stack him up against the stud pass-catchers who have come out over the course of the last two seasons, each one of which we’ve scouted with our own eyes and deliberated maniacally over.

Doctson’s college film and production are outstanding. His combine measurables in the explosive tests were eye-popping, and his 40-yard dash supported the sneaky speed you see on tape. He certainly passed the live eye-ball test for us twice. Once was inside Lucas Oil field where he scored astoundingly in our annual On Field Combine Performance Scores.

The other time was in Fort Worth, where we filmed every rep of his NFL Pro Day .

Simply put, Josh Doctson can do it all. He’ll be in high consideration as one of the top picks in all rookie dynasty drafts. Depending on the situation he falls to, he could easily be 2016’s top pick in dynasty.

QUOTES FROM THE COMBINE

On wrist therapy status:
It’s finished. I am about 100% right now. They did a great job getting me back to full strength.

On what the medical testing at combine was like:
Yes sir. I had a lot of doctors pulling and tugging on me yesterday. It was a little different. Everybody had a chance to look at my wrist. Yesterday (Thursday) I spent a lot of time with doctors and getting MRI’s.

On who did his surgery:
Dr. Eric Wroten back in Fort Worth.

On when the surgery was done:
I had the surgery at the end of November. I was in a long-arm cast for about six weeks. I had two pins to stabilize the arm and bone, and got it removed.

On what helped him become an elite pass catcher:
What helped me the most I think was playing basketball out of high school. Ally hoops helped me with timing of jumping, and catching the ball. And then finding the rim definitely took a lot of hand-eye coordination. That helped correlate over very well for me. Timing in football..knowing when to time my jump to where I could get the best catch…naturally my body knows when to jump.

On how important his 40 time is:
It is important to myself more than anything. I want to prove to myself that I can run fast. I will be doing that tomorrow.

on media reports:
I am not really listening to a lot of media reports. I am just listening to the thoughts in my head right now.

On Boykin:
He is talented. He can make a lot of things happen. A guy that scrambles a lot. He is a tremendous athlete. He is definitely a quarterback. That’s where he needs to be.

On his friendship with Coleman despite Baylor and TCU rivalry and both of their success:
A lot of receivers look at their numbers to look at their draft stock. There are some great receivers out there that have put up our numbers or put up our numbers that we had last season. It was fun competing with him kind of from a distance. We became friends that Baylor, TCU rivalry is always going to be there, but we put it aside.

On only listening to the thoughts going on inside his head…what are those thoughts:
I’m sorry I can’t take you in there.

On when he started thinking about the combine:
I didn’t really start thinking about the combine too far in advance. Not during my senior year. Not until the day after our bowl game. It was definitely different preparation wise. Really there is a fine line in becoming a track athlete and running the 40.

On his journey, not having many offers and under recruited in HS, looking back on that:
Yes ma’am I kind of reminisce everyday. When I think about the combine tomorrow…I’m not supposed to be standing here on this stage. I’m blessed with the opportunity. I have got to take full advantage of the opportunity. Like you said not being recruited out of high school, I don’t have any grudges, but anybody would love to be in my shoes right now. I am just fortunate I am standing right here so I am taking all of it as blessings.

On what his biggest strength is as a football player:
My biggest strength as a football player is catching the ball. That’s what I am supposed to do. Doesn’t matter the situation. If the pass is behind me, doesn’t matter where its at, I am going to catch it. I am guy that is a consistent deep threat that will make the big catch and the big play when we need it.

On what area teams say he could grow in:
My routes were limited with the air raid. We didn’t run a lot of different routes. I’ve been working hard running different routes…confident I can do that here.

On routes that he ran in college:
Routes that I didn’t run in college mainly were double moves I would say and routes that were for the inside position, like the slot position, I didn’t run much.

On chemistry with Boykin:
It is a tough thing to guard. You have a guy back there that is scrambling and then I am scrambling right there, and going deep. It puts a lot of pressure on a defense. Being uncoverable, it’s the mentality of any receiver at this combine I feel like. I am just fortunate to have had enough time with Tre. He knows where I am going to run to, and when I am going to catch the ball. He felt safe throwing it, because he knew I was going to catch it.
