Yes. Built like Julio IMO. Wins in traffic like him too.

I don't think he is anywhere near Julio, talent wise. Lots of upside though! Originally Posted by BigPlayReceiver

No. Not a Julio clone at all, but I think he compares on jump balls. Originally Posted by wickedsolo

Re: WRs ....the 2014 version
If I had to guess, the Ravens would want to go in the direction of a guy who can give them what they lost in Boldin.
To me that's either Robinson or Jordan Matthews.

Btw...if you want another name for a possession type guy, Davonte Adams out of Fresno State is a good guy to look at.

Really good route runner for a bigger receiver. Originally Posted by Raveninwoodlawn

Re: WRs ....the 2014 version
So I'll be banging the drum pretty damn hard for Jared Abbrederis (aka Abracadabra).
Not sure where yet.
Probably no higher than the 3rd round."The Ravens are not taking Jimmy Smith at 26!" -- Me, the day before the 2011 Draft

Re: WRs ....the 2014 version
I see a lot of Boldin in Matthews. He catches anything that's thrown to him, and he outmuscles corners on contested balls. I wouldn't midn him in a trade back scenario. ASJ and Matthews in the 2nd, while landing a 4th rd pick would be ideal.

I like Matthews too...he reminds me more of Jordy Nelson though...I'd love to have him. Originally Posted by leachisabeast

There are indeed a lot of combinations....fortunately this draft seems to likely have solid to good depth at spots we could use some help...the lines, WR and TE. Last years draft was similar in that regard.
I also wouldn't be surprised to see us take a ILB in the middle rounds as well.
Not many top free safeties though it looks like.
