Quentin Johnston: 3 best NFL Draft destinations for TCU football star (ClutchPoints)

TCU wide receiver Quentin Johnston's draft stock is rising after two outstanding performances, so let's look at some NFL fits for him.

Unlike the Jaguars and Giants, the Colts already have some size at receiver. The Giants have had a surprisingly strong start to the season, but they’re rolling out a skeleton crew at receiver. Wide receiver is at a premium in the NFL, and many teams will want to draft Johnston come April. Pittman and Pierce are both at least 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, about the same size as Johnston. That talent is going to waste without an effective passing game, and the Colts need to address it soon. Trevor Lawrence would appreciate a big target for jump balls, and the Jaguars should strongly consider Johnston if he’s available. Just take a look at last season, when Pittman was the only Colt with over 400 receiving yards. Johnston could be a tremendous asset for Big Blue if he’s available. He has the athleticism and route-running ability like Jacksonville’s current trio, but what really sets him apart is his size. Still, Jacksonville is missing a true game-changing receiver, and it remains a position of need. Johnston began his hot streak with an incredible game against Kansas, recording 14 catches for 206 yards and a score. Since then, though, Johnston has been nothing short of fantastic for a breakout Horned Frogs team.
