Strengths
Blazing speedster who has shown across-the-board improvement as a receiver; has run a 4.31 40 with great splits and his speed translates to the field; has worked hard on his hands, but will still double-catch some balls; gets great separation and has learned how to set up routes with his speed.

Weaknesses
He is not very strong and not at all physical, struggles with physical coverage; route running has improved but is still raw except for fly and post routes; needs loads of work on his blocking; doesn’t always attack the ball, had several plays where the DB made plays on what should have been catches; easy to tackle if you can catch him (a big if!), doesn’t move laterally real well. Comes from an offense that will require adjustment to the NFL and probably best fits in a Mike Martz-style system.
