Coleman Jr. is a zone-destroying specialist from the slot who also adds an element of verticality to a passing attack. His speed and burst are immediate and palpable when turning on the film. Coleman offers toughness and YAC ability with not only his speed but also his underrated tackle-breaking ability. Over the last two seasons, he ranked 17th and fifth among wide receivers in missed tackles forced. Coleman has good vision in traffic and looks like a running back with the ball in his hands, bouncing off defenders. Coleman can destroy corners underneath with slants and outs while also stretching the field with slot fades, etc. He has good snap at the top of his stems and can change direction without losing much speed. He displays solid ball tracking downfield. With his smaller frame, Coleman has a smaller catch radius. His hands aren't a concern, though, with only a 3.4% drop rate in college. He does display strength at the catch point when presented with muddy situations, with a 53.7% collegiate contested catch rate. Dynasty Outlook: Kevin Coleman Jr. is headed to the Dolphins via the fifth round of the NFL Draft. He will have to earn his way up the depth chart, but I think he can easily do so. Drafting him this high (late second round/early third round) is a bet on talent. I'm willing to make that bet all day long. This draft class is a crap shoot, and it's hard in many spots of rookie drafts to have conviction with picks, but I have conviction with Coleman Jr.'s talent. Over the last two collegiate seasons, he has posted 2.23 and 2.32 yards per route run while ranking 17th and fifth in missed tackles forced. The Miami depth chart is wide open, and Coleman Jr. could make waves in 2026.
