    That shows him doing many more different things, than the 2019 reel did. Also answers the question of whether he's "right side only" – he's not, they used him on the left side too.

    If you can't differentiate concentration drops and "bad hands" then I don't trust anything you have to say about receiver development.

    Also, they were small hands too which is a big no-no for a WR.

    Except that draft analysts throw those words into every WR evaluation.
    They're afraid to say a player is just good.

    After stepping back I'm looking at it as they did not play him a lot for two reasons:

    1. Willie Snead already knew the offense and did not require learning.
    2. Duvernay needed to work on his routes, he had not OTA's or Mini camps so rather than put too much on him in this first year, let him have a few responsibilities but for the most part watch and learn. I think he'll be used heavily going forward.

    One 1 play he looks mirror image of perriman, and his draft profile reads pretty similar, then on few plays he looks like a young Terrel Owens.

    I would say late day 2 or day 3 selection but his highlight reel doesnt show much in the way of a route tree
    You almost have to ignore route tree prowess at the college level. Look for movement skills instead. Look for guys who move similarly to guys like Allen Robinson, Devante Adams, Dionte Johnson, Keenan Allen, etc....movement skills are a good precursor to route running ability.

    Nice change-of-direction on that second one.
    I noticed that too. I like it.

    btw - I think I can differentiate between the two a bit, but would love to hear a take on how real the difference between the two is.

    One thing that I don't like is that he doesn't seem dominant at the catch point. There are some contested catches there, but nowhere near top-level status. He's a sensational blocker though. Has a lot of dog in him

    So who knows. He looks like a better prospect than Valdes-Scantling and the hands issue is the only thing I see if his health checks out.

    I honestly don't want a WR in the first round but I don't think he makes it to us in the 2nd. If he does I would take him.
    Oh, I thought he was a 4th rounder or later.

    I'm looking at this drafttek list of WRs and he's not even on it.

    Here's his page on draftscout.com - he's the 21st best WR. Not a first rounder or a second rounder.

    There are other places that list him much higher. People who claim he is the most physically talented WR in the draft. He was great in 2019 and injured in 2020 (but still good).

    Welp, there you have it. Meet our 2nd-rd pick.
