EXTREMELY Deep at OT

That is all footwork my friend but like I said, he isn't in Thomas' league.

Good point but if you can't disengage from a physical corner, you will have big problems. I think he'd be best in a place like Dallas where he will be helped by the attention TO draws.

Few teams play bump coverage any more. With the rule change, it seems that small WR's have been tearing it up.

mario is a headcase, I've watched enough UM games and he does get in trouble some as he did this past offseason. When a coach doesn't mind losing a talent like Mario, that says a great deal.

[b bulldog]

True but if they know a wr struggles to disengage, DC's will do what works.

[b bulldog]

One more thing, UM wr's have struggled in the NFL and we are talking about guys with much more talent than Mario has.

mario also isn't known as being a precise route runner.

[RashanGary]

I'm reading up on him. Wow!

Everythign about him is skill, savvy and talent. He's fast, runs great routes and his best asset is his knack for adjusting to the football.


Maybe he's a headcase. I'll buy that, but it sounds like he's a superstud talent.

He looks like one of the rare, dynamic playmakers out there.

Runs greAT routes, all he runs is sideline routes or simple flys. You take him all you want but I don't like him at the next level. I 'm not big on small, finese headcases, who run fast.

Maybe, but all of this kids skills are the ones that seem to translate to the NFL. His write up reads like a 6'0" Randy Moss. He lulls defenders to sleep with his routes. He's deceptively fast. He adjusts perfeclty to deep throws.

He sounds like one of the rare mega skilled WR's in the game, bulldog. Seriously, his strengths are all things that make a WR great. Some WR's are big and that's it. Screw that. I'll take a stud who knows how to get open, catches the ball and has burners to boot.

Small finesse head cases that catch everything, run perfect routes, lull defenders to sleep with their savvy, adjust to everything thrown to him, goes up and gets jump balls and has burners to boot.

OK. He's quicky turning into one of the players I think the most of in this draft.

[b bulldog]

I think this is pretty accurate
Pros-Great deep threat with 4.48 speed. Can stretch the field and create separation and can make the catch. Is fluid and is good at the jump balls.

Cons-Small for a NFL wr by height and weight. He will need to add weight to even be a number two WR in the NFL. hAS TROUBLE GETTING SEPARATion against press coverage and does not have a good arsenal of routes and doesn't run the NFL style routes with any consistency.

[b bulldog]

Nick, how many games have you seen him play?

bulldog, you jsut said he has a knack for going and getting the football. YOu can't teach that. Look at how many WR's have it all but fail because they don't know how to get open or can't catch the ball.

This kid is lauded for lulling defenders to sleep with his savvy (and/or instinct), catching the ball, tracking the ball and being an all around superstud at buring teams deep and going up for jump balls.

If these people who write these things up have any ability to make observation, this guy is a freaking stud.

[b bulldog]

I guess we can see who is correct on this one in a few years. Greg jennings is a much better WR than he will ever be imo but that is just an opinion.

You don't note the cons
