Illinois: Malik Turner, WR

While Jazz Peavey is certainly a dangerous receiving weapon for the Badgers, adding the 6’3″ 200 pound Malik Turner would be useful for Alex Hornibrook and the Badger offense.  He was Honorable Mention All Big Ten as a junior for Illinois with 48 catches good for 712 yards and six TDs.  He has steadily improved his receiving numbers during his three seasons with the Ilini.  Turner’s average of 13.2 yards/catch would fit nicely to stretch defenses vertically.
