As a Longhorns fan, my concern with Worthy is he has difficulty tracking the deep ball. He's a great route runner and will excel in the short and medium game, but don't expect him to be consistent when trying to take the cover off a defense.
He could be a great companion piece for Rice....but one of them would need to clean up the drops or we'd have an ultra talented, yet infuriating receiving room.
If we were to take any Longhorns receiver, I'd be interested in Adonai Mitchell. I've seen him sneak into a few first round mocks over the last couple weeks. He's got size, speed, and is a great contested catch guy. He had an incredible catch over Koolaid McKinstry when Bama had the Longhorns were backed up inside their own five.
However, JT Sanders is still my preferred pick out of the bunch. He has that Kelce knack for finding the softspots in the zone and is a YAC machine once he gets the ball in his hands. He needs to clean up his run blocking, but it's something that can be done.

His size worries me. I'm not alone in that thought either. And that is my main concern with him. Can he add any more weight and not lose any speed? You have obliviously seen more of him than me so I can't say too much about what he does well or doesn't. Same with Mitchell.
Sanders is very interesting and I agree with you on him. Everything that seems like a negative can be cleaned up.
Comps are funny, aren't they? Worthy's comp is DeVonta Smith. Devonta Smith's comp is Calvin Ridley. Calvin Ridley's comp is Amari Cooper.
