Availability
Key is a big, long-striding receiver. He has average burst and long speed. He will telegraph his route breaks at times with choppy footsteps and his pad level. He needs to improve his route salesmanship. There are some reps where he'll toss in jab steps and head fakes, but it needs to happen more consistently. Key has no issues separating against zone coverage, but when corners line up to press him, they can get access to his chest easily. Key can be rerouted and hung up in routes. He could easily become a solid WR3/4 for an NFL team if he can continue to grow as a route technician. Key should be more of a possession receiver at the next level. He isn't going to blow anyone away with his RAC ability (3.7 yards after the catch per reception in college) or tackle-breaking chops (26 missed tackles forced across four years).
