Yahoo Sports NFL on Chris Hilton Jr.

Hilton's limited production and hands issues raise concerns about NFL viability.

Hilton's college production was limited by injuries and inconsistent opportunity. Over five years at LSU, he had 41 receptions for 780 yards and six touchdowns in his SEC career, but only registered 10 receptions for 122 yards as a redshirt senior when the Tigers' passing game struggled after QB Garrett Nussmeier injured his abs. Brugler noted Hilton was up and down with his hands—his success rate nosedived when defenders crowded his air space—and a limited snap count hindered his route-running development.
