Malachi Corley

Malachi Corley demonstrated consistent productivity at Western Kentucky, particularly excelling in creating yards after the catch. Despite his smaller stature, his thick frame allowed him to navigate through defenses effectively. However, concerns arise regarding his play style being more akin to a running back than a traditional receiver. Coupled with doubts about the Jets' offensive creativity, Corley's potential may be limited in their system. Despite being a third-round pick, I'd exercise caution in investing in him for fantasy purposes.

Corley is built like a running back. He has a compact, thick frame and a sturdy lower half. He utilizes his strong frame and low center of gravity to break arm tackles in the open field. A true slot receiver. Western Kentucky tried to get the ball in his hands in any way possible with screens, pop passes, and handoffs. He was utilized on a ton of screens, slants, and quick-outs. Corley offers some YAC upside with a decent second gear. He has a good feel for attacking zone coverage and finding good areas to sit down in coverage.
