Khyree Jackson Shades Rome Odunze, Says Troy Franklin Was Best WR He Faced in College

Former Oregon cornerback Khyree Jackson told reporters that the best receiver he ever faced was ex-college teammate Troy Franklin and not Washington wideout Rome Odunze, a heavy favorite to land in the top 10 of this year's NFL draft.

Odunze sits ninth on the B/R NFL Scouting Department big board and third among wideouts behind only Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr. and LSU's Malik Nabers. He recently dominated college football with 87 receptions for 1,553 yards and 13 touchdowns.

He fared quite well against Oregon this year, first amassing eight catches for 128 yards and two touchdowns in a 36-33 regular season win.
