No. 2: Chris Conley

Year: 2011
Position: Wide Receiver
Original Ranking: 3-star, No. 39 WR

Like teammate Bennett, Conley never really got the respect he deserved until coming to Georgia. An intelligent, savvy football player with great ball skills and superb hands, Conley not only showed he had the makings of a great slot receiver, but impressed with some incredibly athletic catches during his Georgia career.

Conley put up some amazing stats (117 catches, 1,938 yards, 20 TDs), as well as making an impressive Star Wars short film while at Georgia. Drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2015, he has been reunited with former teammate, QB Aaron Murray.
