Sarratt, a 6-foot-2, 210-pound target, led the FBS with 15 receiving touchdowns in 2025 as Indiana claimed an undefeated season and its first national championship. He’s earned a nickname for his ball-winning ability and his tendency to be “open” for targets, frequently drawing contested catches against man coverage.
Evaluation notes highlight his strengths and limits: he’s a big receiver with a competitive edge and strong catch-space ability, capable of winning contested targets. Yet he’s tight-hipped with below-average foot quickness, which can hamper his separation, and he will face press challenges at the NFL level.
Sarratt’s path to prominence has been unconventional. A zero-star recruit out of St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, he began at FCS St. Francis (Pa.) as a true freshman in 2022, transferred to James Madison for 2023 (earning All-Sun Belt honors with 82 receptions, 1,191 yards, 9 TDs), and then starred for Indiana across two seasons with 118 receptions, 1,787 yards, and 23 TDs.
Prospective evaluators have described him as a high-volume target with WR1 potential and late-game playmaking ability, praising his hands, route-running, and competitiveness. Those traits, combined with his production, position him as a plausible developmental fit for a team seeking a potential future starting receiver.
For the Cowboys, selecting a day-two/3rd-round receiver like Sarratt could add immediate depth behind Lamb and Pickens and offer a pathway to a larger role in the near future. The 2026 draft would present a practical avenue to address the WR3 spot with a player whose size, production, and tenacity align with Dallas’s long-term offensive plans.
