Love this pick. Another young(will turn 22 in June) and athletic WR. Was a guy I targeted as a potential day 3 grab. Also a good blocker

One prospect with tons of momentum heading into the 2023 NFL Draft is wide receiver Grant DuBose. The Charlotte pass catcher is the ideal build for a boundary receiver, and he brings the mentality necessary to deal with cornerbacks on an island. DuBose needs to create more space to last in the NFL, but his ball skills at the catch point are as good as anyone in the class.

If he can continue high-pointing the ball on Sundays, it gives him a safe floor as a red-zone threat. When DuBose learns how to create more consistent separation, he has a pathway to becoming a WR1 on an NFL roster. He is a project but offers more upside than any other player on this list. DuBose should come off the board early on day three.

From here.

The entire world should be rooting Grant DuBose on. Why? At Miles College in 2019, he played in 10 games and had just eight catches for 104 yards. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic hit and plenty of lives were affected, including Grant’s. Miles College didn’t play football in 2020, so DuBose was without football and ended up working three jobs, including one at Walmart in 2020. He was just a 19-year-old kid… Fast forward to the summer of 2021 and DuBose is trying out for Charlotte because backup QB James Foster encouraged him to do so. Charlotte was so impressed with Grant that he not only made the team but got the opportunity to play right off the bat. DuBose torched Duke for 118 yards and two touchdowns on just four catches in his debut! The 6-foot-2, 201-pound receiver is super strong and plays with a ton of physicality. DuBose is passionate and determined. He plays with so much JUICE! He wins over the middle often and makes for a tough tackle after the catch due to that impressive frame and the ability to play through contact. DuBose never fails to amaze in the vertical passing game. He’s prolific in this area of the game. With a slick release package and supreme confidence in his abilities, DuBose wins deep with excellent athleticism, big-time ball skills, and elite tracking ability. Don’t be surprised if DuBose makes a diving catch as a rookie. I think the tape speaks for itself. You can spot that he’s a crisp route-runner, smooth, and makes outrageous grabs. DuBose will be a late Day 3 selection, and he’ll be a major success story right when his name is announced in Kansas City. You’ll know the name Grant DuBose sooner or later…

From here.

Name sounds like the trust fund prick at prep school.
