2021 NFL Draft Sleeper: North Carolina Wide Receiver Dazz Newsome

Posted Jan 27, 2021
This past season North Carolina wide receiver Dazz Newsome finished second the team in receptions with 54, which was only one away from leading the Tar Heels. He also averaged close to 10 yards per punt return which was second in the ACC. Newsome's best trait is the ability to make yards after the catch and make tacklers miss in the open field.
