Overview
Maehl has the mentality, intangibles and savvy to become a reserve wide receiver who provides additional value on special teams. However, he lacks the explosiveness, deep speed and strength to be considered a potential future starter. Is a technically-sound route runner but lacks burst out of breaks to beat man coverage at the next level and is susceptible to being jammed at the line. Efficient and productive when working against zone coverage. Hands are solid but does not have the physicality to make too many contested grabs. Can make some plays after the catch but won't scare a defense vertically. Maehl's a late-round prospect.
Analysis
Weaknesses
Lacks bulk and strength. May have difficulty beating NFL press coverage. Likely will not win fair share of 50/50 jump-ball battles at the next level. Does not possess the explosiveness to consistently separate from man coverage. Lacks big-play or downfield potential. Will need to add power to ensure blocking production matches effort.

| Grade | Title | Draft (Round) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 96-100 | Future Hall of Famer | Top Pick | A once-in-a-generation type prospect who could change how his position is played |
| 85-95 | Immediate Starter | 1st | An impact player with the ability/intangibles to become a Pro Bowl player. Expect to start immediately except in a unique situation (i.e. behind a veteran starter). |
| 70-84 | Eventual Starter | 2nd-3rd | A quality player who will contribute to the team early on and is expected to develop into a starter. A reliable player who brings value to the position. |
| 50-69 | Draftable Player | 4th-7th | A prospect with the ability to make team as a backup/role player. Needs to be a special teams contributor at applicable positions. Players in the high range of this category might have long-term potential. |
| 20-49 | Free Agent | UDFA | A player with solid measurables, intangibles, college achievements, or a developing skill that warrants an opportunity in an NFL camp. In the right situation, he could earn a place on a 53-man roster, but most likely will be a practice squad player or a camp body. |
