Jahan Dotson

While slightly undersized - 5-foot-10 and sub-180 pounds - Jahan Dotson packs a serious punch, as the Penn State product was a mega-producer in his final college season earning an absurd 43% dominator rating.

He easily saved his best for last, finishing ninth in PFF receiving grade (87.2) and eighth in receptions among his 2022 draft-eligible classmates. Dotson's sure-hands - 94th percentile career drop rate (2%) - will help him vacuum up targets at the next level, especially if he carves out a role as a team's primary slot receiver.

However, Dotson's draft stock did not rise after testing results. These Penn State guys tend to be athletic freaks, but Dotson was underwhelming. He was vastly underweight and failed to pop in the drills despite being so much smaller.
4.43 40-yard dash (74th percentile), sub-60th percentile jumps and an abysmal 7.28 3-cone drill (9th percentile).

Dotson's a solid route runner and reliable receiver, but his ultimate upside doesn't seem to be more than real-life WR2. Becoming Emmanuel Sanders might be his best-case scenario.

Jahan Dotson was targeted seven times Sunday, catching three of them for 37 yards.

Fantasy Impact

Dotson lost a major portion of his rookie season to a hamstring injury but has been very solid when he is on the field. Dotson will look to build off an ultimately strong rookie campaign in 2023 and could be a solid option if the Commanders find a way to upgrade at the QB position in the offseason.
