steady Bowling Green receiver with past polish and versatility
Derek Brighton is a former Bowling Green wideout whose value came from versatility and reliability rather than big-volume production. In the 2008 season, he played in seven games and finished his Bowling Green career with 10 receptions for 97 yards, plus one rushing attempt for -9 yards and even a passing completion for 6 yards[5][7][11][12]. Recruiting notes described him as having excellent speed, good foot quickness, and the ability to hit a second gear, but also needing technical refinement[13].
