per ESPN:
16. Minnesota Golden Gophers: WR Rashod Bateman
The Gophers had an exciting tandem at receiver last season in Tyler Johnson and Bateman. The two combined for over 2,500 yards receiving and 24 touchdowns. Johnson is gone -- selected by the Tampa Bay Bucs in the NFL draft -- which means Bateman will be called upon heavily this season to replicate his production. He averaged 20.32 yards per catch last season, so he is a big play waiting to happen. With quarterback Tanner Morgan back, he and Bateman should have no problem connecting this coming season and putting up big numbers once again.
