Graded Wide Receiver Traits:
- Durability: 10/10 (No real injuries of note and has been productive for three years)
- Hands: 8/10 (Catches a lot with hands but has some drops where he takes his eyes off the ball. Also not as fluid on contested catches on low throws but still has reliable hands)
- Release: 5/10 (Seems slow getting off the line at times and seems like he will definitely struggle to separate from press coverage. He may be more relegated to the slot because of this)
- RAC Ability: 5/10 (Decent speed will help him here but he is not really elusive nor does he have the physicality to offset it)
- Route Running: 6/10 (He runs different routes but the cuts are not super sharp nor sudden. He will definitely need to refine this part of his game)
- Speed: 6/10 (Has above average speed, but it is not mind blowing. Enough to catch the defense off guard but not enough to run by everyone and be a true home run threat)
- Strength: 3/10 (Not strong at all. His frame is comparable to other receivers in this class but he really lacks strength that others like Addison and Flowers seem to find. Struggles on contact after and before the catch)
- Versatility: 5/10 (Will mostly like be in the slot for most of the snaps but does offer some ability in the return game)
Prospect Grade: 48/80; 60% (Borderline starter potential)
Projected Draft Day: Late 2
Player Comparison: KJ Osborn
Player Summary:
Mims’s production has been very inconsistent throughout his time at Oklahoma. There are really good games and ones where he disappears completely. He has very good hands and above average speed that could serve him well in a slot roll. His lack of sharpness on his route running needs to be worked on for him to become more than an average starter in the league and he has to learn more play strength or get creative with his release to beat more physical corners and be more useful outside of the slot
