We are onto the third prospect in our series breaking down the best comparisons for all of the Ohio State Buckeyes up for the 2021 NFL draft. We have already highlighted Justin Fields and Trey Sermon, but I wanted to talk about a forgotten former Buckeye, Trevon Grimes.
Grimes is a former five-star recruit who enrolled at Ohio State in 2017 and saw time in two games before transfering to Florida. Although he was most recently a Gator, Buckeye fans should still root for Grimes to succeed. Below we highlight the most natural comparison and then try and find a former Ohio State player to compare him to. Like Sermon, Grimes is likely to be a middle-round target.
Player Profile
Name: Trevon Grimes
Position: Wide Receiver
Height: 6-4 (pre pro day)
Weight: 215 pounds
Trevon Grimes has some limitations as a receiver for sure, but hard not to love his mentality. Went into the South Carolina game trying to destroy Jaycee Horn in the run game. Physically challenging him even when the run was going to the opposite side of the field. Competitor.
