2.03 Dallas Golden Tornadoes - WR Andy Isabella

Isabella put himself on the WR prospect map with 15 receptions for 219 yards and two TD’s in the 2018 season opener, in a performance that reminded me (statistically, at least) of another speedy WR who spurred a small school to topple a big one (TY Hilton vs. Louisville, 2011).  He was one of three finalists for the 2018 Biletnikoff Award, and at the Combine, he blazed a 4.31 40.  According to Rob Rang, while Isabella is short by NFL standards, he is well-built and tough, showing the courage to catch passes across the middle and the determination to pinball off would-be tacklers. Here in the TUFF Draft, two Cardinals rookie WRs go off the board with back-to-back picks.  Dallas is looking for someone to step up and be their #3 WR alongside JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyler Boyd; Isabella, at the very least, will provide quality depth.
