strengths

weakness

• He is an interesting polished dual receiver and return specialist who was productive in three separate programs.
• He has the excellent speed that endangers defensive backs off the line of scrimmage.
• He makes effective releases off the line and is a reliable route runner.
• He will find ways to get open with short and intermediate routes.
• He is a surehanded receiver that can track the ball down the field even over the shoulder.
• He demonstrates his excellent eye and hand coordination to make the difficult catches.
• He will work the sideline and use the sideline as his best friend to shield the defender off to make contested catches.
• He is shifty and used it effectively as a return specialist.

• He is an older receiver in this draft at 24 years old.
  
• On film, most of his alignment was on the right side of the offensive set, so he will need to adjust.
  
• He must find a better solution to create separation from the defender.
  
• He will need to get more vital for the next level.
  
• He needs to be more reliable in the run game as a downfield blocker and may need to add more muscle mass to his frame.
