San Francisco, Dante Pettis, WR, Washington
STRENGTHS
Possesses a wiry, athletic frame with good overall weight distribution and room for additional muscle mass without a significant loss of quickness. That quickness may be Pettis' best trait. He possesses extraordinary stop-start quickness, accelerating from zero to 60 in the blink of eye - a fact which helps Pettis break the initial wave of defenders on punt returns and eat up the cushion against cornerbacks. Pettis shows sharp change of direction skills, planting his foot in the ground and exploding laterally to create separation and elude in tight quarters after securing the ball. He is a polished route-runner, showing a feel for setting up cornerbacks on double moves (see Alabama, 2016 Peach Bowl). Pettis shows good body control to contort in space to make difficult grabs, creating a large catch radius because of his flexibility and long arms. He has reliable hands, plucking the ball from outside of his frame and showing the ability to track it over his shoulder. Pettis shows courage to field punts with defenders around him and no hesitation to run through traffic. Despite his slim frame, Pettis has proven durable over his career, missing no games due to injury (52 games). Athletic bloodlines. Father, Gary Pettis, played 11 seasons at centerfield in the Major Leagues, earning five Gold Gloves. His cousin, Austin, was a record-breaking receiver at Boise State who played four years (2011-2014) with the Rams. - Rob Rang 12/21/2017
WEAKNESSES
Even among receivers, Pettis possesses a relatively slight build with slim limbs and only average height, limiting the roles he can play in an NFL offense. He can get held up at the line of scrimmage against press coverage and is too easily knocked off his route by handsy defensive backs. Pettis competes for jump balls, but his lack of core strength also shows up in this area. He shows just average strength to break tackles consistently, relying on his agility and balance to make defenders miss. Similarly, while Pettis is an alert and competitive blocker, he lacks the strength to be very effective in this role. Pettis will need to do a better job of being aware of the sideline in the NFL, often just getting one foot in bounds on sideline catches. - Rob Rang 12/21/2017
COMPARES TO
Nelson Agholor, Philadelphia Eagles - Agholor and Pettis may both hail from the Pac-12 but that is just the beginning of their similarities. Agholor, the surprise 20th overall pick of the 2015 draft, possesses a similar frame (6-0, 198 pounds) as Pettis, as well as production as a receiver (20 and 24 touchdowns, respectively) and as returner (four and nine touchdowns, respectively). Neither is a classic No. 1 target but do possess the natural playmaking ability to be quite effective at the next level.
IN OUR VIEW
Pettis lacks the imposing frame teams are searching for outside and he has limited experience in the slot. The same things which make Pettis such an extraordinary punt returner and effective receiver in college, however - his vision, elusiveness, and sudden acceleration - also project very well to the NFL. A Day Two selection is likely with Pettis providing immediate impact potential in both roles.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment
