Pat Bryant's impressive collegiate career at Illinois culminated in a record-breaking season, boasting the highest receiving grade among Illinois receivers tracked by PFF. Drafted 74th overall by the Denver Broncos, he enters a highly competitive wide receiver room, contending with established talents like Courtland Sutton and emerging players like Marvin Mims.

While his physical attributes and performance suggest he could thrive as an X receiver, he may initially serve as a backup. His potential to excel, especially in a Sean Payton offense known for leveraging multiple receivers, keeps his fantasy prospects alive. If Bryant surpasses Sutton on the depth chart, he could become a valuable asset in fantasy leagues.
