Final Report
Bell is a productive, explosive tester and ascending receiving talent. UConn’s offense used him everywhere as he lined up in the backfield on 23 snaps, in the slot on 223 and out wide on 434. Despite being sub 6 feet tall, Bell has real ball skills with his explosive leaping (41 inch vert) and big hands (10 inches) to finish plays. He had a very poor drop rate of 13.1% in 2024, but lowered that all the way down to 3.7% in 2025. In the screen and quick pass game, Bell is a dynamic threat with the ball in his hands that can run through or around defenders. Overall, Bell is another receiver in this class with a potentially higher ceiling at the next level due to quarterback play. He should get more opportunities in the vertical game, but brings a comfortable floor because of his athleticism and production in the short area.
