College Production
Felton was a jack of all trades master of none for the Bruins. He finished his collegiate career with 1,100 rushing yards and 958 receiving yards. He also totaled 15 touchdowns in his 31 career games. In 2019, Felton led the Pac-12 with two kickoff returns for touchdowns. Felton’s lone award came in 2020 where he was named second-team all Pac-12. The biggest question when looking at Felton’s statistical resume' is his lack of games played.

Film Review: Strengths and Weaknesses
Felton was used heavily at wide receiver and running back during his time with the Bruins. This versatility should provide a huge boost to his draft stock. The first thing one notices when watching Felton is his explosivenesss. Whether it is returning kickoffs, catching screens, or working with the ball out of the backfield, he is always a home-run threat. Almost every time he touches the ball, Felton makes at least one would-be tackler miss. Mixing this ability with his athleticism is what makes Felton such an exciting prospect in the 2021 class.
If Felton is going to be a successful wide receiver in the NFL, he will need to work on his route tree. The Bruins asked Felton mostly to run screens and catch swing passes. If Felton can expand upon his route tree, he can become a true threat at the next level.
