Anthony Julmisse, Returner

I’m going way under the radar with this selection, but that’s because of the intangibles that Anthony Julmisse brings as a return specialist.

A wide receiver out of Plantation, Florida, Julmisse is just a freshman, but he has blazing speed. In fact, he might be the fastest player on the team. Though Colorado wasn’t able to find a way to work him into the offense this year, big things are to come when it does.

For now, keep an eye on him as a return man, including in the upcoming bowl game. Julmisse averaged 22.6 yards per attempt on his 17 kickoff returns this season and he has game-changing speed.
