Sam Pickett III is a rising Samford target with big-play juice and reliable volume
In the 2025 season, Sam Pickett III flashed as a freshman at Samford with 33 catches for 450 yards and 2 touchdowns, averaging 13.6 yards per reception and topping out with a 77-yard long gain; that profile points to a receiver who can win downfield and after the catch, not just move the chains[5][11]. Listed around 6-0 and 180 pounds, he brings a lean, playable frame and also showed some return value, making him a useful fit for teams wanting a versatile WR with explosiveness and room to grow[1][15].
