Wallace doesn't have elite speed, but he has plenty of raw speed to operate as a weapon after the catch and stretch the field when called upon. His lack of elite speed can show up in his route running from time to time, where his footwork can be inefficient and leave him a tick behind on a timing throw/route. Wallace has some serious route-running chops with savvy route depth adjustments depending upon the zone coverage. He sets up corners with jab steps, pacing variations, and the headiness to set up corners throughout a game like a chess match. He has superb play strength, and it shows up in his game as he plays with a chip on his shoulder. Wallace finished college with a 52.8% contested catch rate. His strong hands also lead to a large catch radius with the ability to attack the ball at the catch point. He easily plucks it out away from his frame. One of Wallace's superpowers is his body control. He effortlessly can contort his body in the air for back shoulder targets and transition into a RAC threat within the blink of an eye once his feet hit the ground. Wallace is solid to above average in every area of playing wide receiver, which should allow him to run a full route tree and play a variety of roles for an NFL offense. He has the ceiling of operating as a team's WR2 but is likely better cast as a strong WR3 option.
