The Florida Gators, year in and year out, manage to recruit a number of the most athletically gifted football players in the nation.

Whether it be two of three highest rated quarterbacks in the country in Jeff Driskel and Jacoby Brissett, or a group of the best defensive linmen in the nation in Sharrif Floyd, Dominique Easley and Ronald Powell.

While many of these scholarship athletes have succeeded with the Gators thus far, the team's receivers have yet to pull their weight in terms of how talented guys like Andre Debose and Solomon Patton truly are. Thus, offensive coordinator Brent Pease and starting quarterback Driskel have been forced to look for some bigger bodies to make plays.
