Dike

The Titans kick off Day 3 by making another addition to one of the league’s most undermanned skill corps, though it remains to be seen how much 23-year-old Dike (6'1/196) will be able to contribute off the bat. That’s because after four seasons at Wisconsin in which he amassed just 97 catches for 1,478 yards and nine touchdowns, Dike transferred to UF in 2024 to close out his college career. He was a starting receiver in three of his five college seasons, only twice eclipsing 650 receiving yards. Boasting impressive top-end speed that he displayed at the combine (4.37 40-yard dash), Dike can take the top off a defense in a moment’s notice and caught 10-of-18 deep targets for 322 yards and one touchdown last season. His snaps in the slot compared to outside are split nearly 50/50 for his career, though it’s worth noting that his two most productive seasons result in a combined slot rate of 68.6 percent. Coaches will need to figure out where he’s best suited, but the college numbers suggest his future will be brighter as a slot man. Dike also possesses valuable skills as a returner (26 punt returns and 20 kick returns) and also contributed on the punt and kick coverage teams last season. The production profile as a whole isn’t particularly impressive, but a 2023 season in which he was likely miscast as an outside receiver (98.7 wide snap rate) may have kept Dike from enjoying more success. He’ll make for an intriguing enough prospect to watch come training camp, but he will probably begin his career on special teams.
