The Cover 3 crew talks recruiting and drafts the top pass catchers in college football. First, breaking down the 2023 edition of the Blue Chip Ratio (1:05), which measures how many four-star and five-star recruits have signed with a program compared to three-stars and below over a four-year span. This has proven to be an indicator of the talent required to win a national championship, so where do teams stand heading into the fall? Then it's on to Clemson's recent recruiting success (17:40) and the Pass Catcher's Draft, where we select the top wide receivers and tight ends in the country. After a review of the 2022 WR/TE draft (25:35) the highlights from this year's draft (29:12) include two Ohio State players in the first round, a conference-leading six picks from the Pac-12 and more. Finally, the best of the rest with top snubs from the 16-player draft (43:30).
