Cooper Barkate

Dean Kindig

3-65 (21.7) vs NCState, with great YAC. Previously Harvard, Graduate transfer under Diaz, earned All-America in 2024.

Tends to spend too much time going east/west. Good route runner. Capable receiver through contact. Works the sideline really well. Very good body control.

Duce Robinson

Dean Kindig

9-147 (16.3) and 1TD in 2OT loss to VA (Led FSU), 4 for 74 (18.5) vs NCState leading team, but only 2 catches for 18 yards in 2025 scouted game vs Bama. He became FSU's first 1,000-yard receiver since 2019, logging 56 receptions for 1,081 yards and six touchdowns. One of the lowest "Juke Move" scores on EASports. At 100 percent in return from injury. 3.13 Yards/Route Run is 17th out of 517 college WRs. 134.2 Passer Rating when Targeted is 25th. Did not play with Keon Coleman. One of the lowest "Juke Move" scores on EASports. Wins more with his exceptional size (6'6"), catch radius, and fluidity rather than sudden, explosive athleticism and separation. His route tree has been described as underdeveloped, heavily relying on vertical concepts and simple patterns (curls, fades, slants). He needs to expand his repertoire to include more nuanced option routes and double moves. He's my 17th-ranked WR in this class, and Bills took the 17th WR in 2026: Skyler Bell.
