Pro Football Focus really likes Henry Ruggs of Alabama heading into NFL Draft

He is one of the best wide receivers in this draft class and some analysts have him projected a first-rounder come April.

A native of Montgomery, Ala., Henry Ruggs III had a stellar career at the University of Alabama – winning a Southeastern Conference Championship and a College Football Playoff National Championship in his tenure with the team.

The 6-foot, 190-pounder was one of four receivers that finished with 500-plus yards in 2019 for the Crimson Tide.

He totaled 746 yards with seven touchdowns on 40 catches, to a tune of 18.6 yards a catch.

According to Pro Football Focus, a website that dives into the analytics of both college and professional football, Ruggs gave quarterbacks the highest passer rating of anyone in the sport when he was target.
