Ole Miss’s late-blooming big-play target who exploded in 2021
Dontario Drummond’s calling card is obvious: in the 2021 season at Ole Miss, he led the Rebels with 76 catches for 1,028 yards and 8 receiving touchdowns, earning preseason All-SEC buzz and showing true WR1 production[2][3]. He’s a strong route-runner with reliable hands and an every-down competitiveness that helped him go from a modest role in 2019 to a breakout by 2021[3]. The knock? He was a late riser rather than an early-factory star, and his pro profile was dinged by average speed testing, so he fits best as a polished, physical possession-to-intermediate weapon rather than a pure burner[5][15].
