  Draft Scout by Conference









  One bright spot for Missouri was junior wide receiver Jalen Knox. The 6-foot slot receiver, who finished with five catches for 63 yards, proved to be a safety blanket for starting quarterback Shawn Robinson - and Bazelak for one drive - in the first half. Knox had a small role in the offense last year under Dooley. He was sixth in receptions with 19 catches for 307 yards last season. Badie, out of the backfield, led the team in receptions last year with 32 catches. Knox may be the Missouri wideout to watch despite preseason buzz surrounding graduate transfers Hazelton and Chism. Hazelton led the team with nine targets. Chism had only one target in the first half and finished with two catches for 12 yards. "I thought (Knox) played well," Drinkwitz said. "We moved him all over the field. We moved him to the slot receiver. We had him out as a perimeter receiver. When we got the two grad transfer guys, that's what we knew we were going to do was move him inside and give us a little more flexibility in our offense to create some space." Knox said that he is "fast and more comfortable" in the slot instead of on the outside. He compared his constant motion to the role he had in high school. "That part of the game was easy," Knox said. "Getting to move around and be eye-candy to defenses and help other people get open...I love it." - Columbia Daily Tribune
