Baylor is getting a strong outside receiver with great size, has a big frame at 6-foot-2-and 185 pounds, Gifford is one who can gas defenders downfield with his elite speed, the guy has some burners and can create a lot of space between himself and defenders. Last season Gifford had 44 receptions go for 893 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.
