He`s 6 '5/8" not 6' 5" and He is football fast,would like Him and torry not taking the top off but tearing the top completely off defenses with them on the field defenses would have to commit 4DBs to 2 WRs and the slot wr will be killing defenses underneath or gashing the defense with Running the ball.....Hmmmmm let`s get this guy

He sure has a nice way of separating from defenders. Has an extra gear when the ball is in his hands.

Yes, that´s the reason he could be there in the fourth round.

In February of 2012, Lewis was meant to be announcing which school he would be attending. Instead, he was in jail facing two charges of felony rape. Eventually he was found not guilty of one count and accepted three years' probation after pleading down to falsification in exchange for dismissal of the rape charge. Once the legal troubles were behind him, and after playing the 2013 season at Jireh Prep School (35-900, 13 TDs receiving), Lewis signed with Bowling Green. His impact was swift, earning first-team All-MAC honors after catching 73 passes for 1,093 and seven scores. Lewis dominated the MAC again as a sophomore, grabbing 85 balls for 1,544 yards (which ranked second in the FBS) and 16 touchdowns. Lewis made the most of his second chance, and after leaving school early, is in prime condition to achieve his dream of playing in the NFL.
