Clemson traditionally has smaller, slot-build wide receivers and long, 9-man wide receivers. Deon Cain is neither of the two. He is very fast, yet, much bigger than a traditional slot and he is not as physically imposing as former Tigers, Mike Williams and Martavis Bryant.
Regardless if Cain fits the physical mold of a Clemson wide receiver, he can play with the best of them. During his two seasons at Clemson, Cain has recorded 72 receptions for 1,308 yards and 14 touchdowns. The most telling statistic from Cain’s first two seasons in Death Valley is his yards per reception.
