KJ Hamler NFL Draft Expert Predictions

It's easy to overlook KJ Hamler. The 5-foot-9-inch, 178-pound Penn State product certainly doesn't fit the mold of a prototypical NFL wideout, but he could be a solid slot receiver at the next level. As a junior at Penn State, Hamler racked up 904 receiving yards and 8 touchdowns on 56 receptions.
