| Strengths | Athletic junior with a great package of size and speed. Has instant acceleration to top speed. Uses his hands well to create space and easily maintains his separation with his speed and quickness. Finds holes in zones well. Has strong hands and secures the ball well. Has very good body control along the sideline and in tight spaces. Shows very strong blocking technique and tenacity. Does not seem fazed by making difficult catches look routine. Catches low throws very well for a taller wideout. Elusive and tough runner after the catch. Presents his shoulders as a target well. Showed good ability to get and stay open in useful spots when the quarterback improvised outside the pocket.
|
| Weaknesses | Has a nasty propensity to disappear from games and loses focus far too often. Does not play real physical for a guy his size. Will make some head-scratching drops. Will cut off routes and round his corners. Doesn't always give maximum effort when he’s not designed to be involved in the play.
