0:00.0

This is Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden.

0:13.3

12 games into his long horn's regular season.

0:16.0

He was only averaging 48 yards per game.

0:18.3

Then he hung 162 yards on Georgia, 149 yards against Arizona State, and all of a sudden,

0:23.4

and now he's in the first round. So how do we get there? On tape, you'll see a great athlete

0:27.5

threatens vertically from all alignments, inside, outside, even X receiver. He could snap things out

0:33.0

with outbreakers whenever he has off coverage. So I think we have a little development to get him into the real round one conversation,

0:40.5

but I do understand the ceiling just based off his athleticism.

0:43.7

5'11, 191 pounds began his career at Houston before transferring into Texas this year.

0:50.3

And one of his best games was against the Longhorns.

0:52.6

So I know he was already in the state, but I wouldn't be surprised if Sark on the opposite sideline was like, oh, maybe we should

0:57.6

transfer that guy up a little bit. And whenever a receiver runs in the four twos, something electric

is going to happen. The buzz is going to build. He ran a 429 and a 149 10 yards split. That is the 95th and 98th percentiles.

1:13.8

We have no jumps, no agilities for him and probably won't the rest of the way. But again,

1:18.2

I think when people see 429, they believe he's going to be all go routes all day long.

1:24.5

But when in reality, that was just about 26% of his targets this past year,

1:29.7

which actually ranks 45th in this entire draft class, to me, he looks his fastest when he has

1:36.0

given runways and the free releases on end breakers or outside breaking routes or deep posts or

1:43.4

corners and especially versus zone coverage.

1:46.5

It's like turning the corner with a race car and then he's creating separation and sustaining

1:52.1

it even more and just again moves faster with a bunch of defensive backs there.

1:55.7

Yeah, his speed has felt differently than like the Henry Ruggs types and the Jalen Wattle types who like to me like
