Summary
Donnie Corley is everything you want in a WR. He is explosive with the ability to rip the ball away from the defender. He is a playmaker that is a threat to score anytime the ball is in his hands. Corley creates separation and sells his routes well. He extends to meet the ball and catches it with his hands; he is not a body catcher. Corley re-entered the college football world in 2019 and put everyone on notice. He should continue his upward trend and continue to grow as a player. Planned on playing some DB as well in the 2020 season.
