Wesley Grimes brings big-play juice and steady WR2 value for NC State
Wesley Grimes is a sleek, field-stretching receiver who gave NC State 29 catches for 430 yards and 3 touchdowns in the 2025 season, after finishing with 77 career receptions for 1,121 yards and 9 touchdowns across Wake Forest and NC State.[1][3][12][15] What makes him interesting is the speed and vertical threat he brings—he’s been described as a big-play weapon, and his 2025 production showed reliable efficiency rather than just volume.[12][15] He’s a good fit for a team that wants a polished, experienced target who can win downfield and offer immediate snaps, though he’s not the kind of overpowering, high-volume alpha who forces the entire offense to orbit around him.[12][15]
