Velus is a SUPER SENIOR . He'll be 25 in May. What's his story?

Great speed but a lot of scouts see him as a special teams workhorse that you will need to "develop" at WR.

Projections - 4th/5th round by many.

Looks like he was at Southern Cal for 4 years before transferring to Tennessee where he played for two more years. I believe the 2020 season didn't count against eligibility. He must have got a redshirt back in 2016, his first year at USC.

Possibly.

Wes Welker, Julian Edelman, D Baldwin come to mind.

Holy crap. I saw some blurbs of him moving up draft boards but dang, I didn't realize he's that much older than everyone else. I would have thought he went on a Mormon mission. I mean... at least he's physically developed.

I'm hanging my hat on Sam Howell as our first round pick.
