"FBS leader in career yards who's a grinder that prepared like a pro but isn't especially fast or quick and could struggle to separate at the next level."
Carlos Osario AP
Strengths
Efficient mover with quick feet and strong hands. Acrobatic leaper with a large catch radius and body control. Decisive and physical after the catch.
A grinder who prepared like a pro in college. Great blocker. Respected leader and high character individual.
Weaknesses
Doesn't explode off the line and lacks the speed to threaten over the top. Great ball skills but routinely drops passes.
Physical DBs can have some success against him. Due to a lingering injury will miss all the post season physical testing and drills.
Overall
FBS leader in career yards is atop many WR rankings but I'm not as high on him. He's a tall, physical, fluid WR that can make spectacular catches and create yac but I think he'll find it a much harder go as pro WR.
He's not especially fast or quick and I think he'll struggle some to separate. Projects as a #2 to me.
