| | Player Profile | Early Doucet - Wide Receiver
College: LSU
|
| Strengths | Average size and speed (6’0”, 210, 4.55), though he does show good strength and quickness for his size; excellent feet in route running, makes very clean cuts and turns; catches everything with his hands; supremely confident, in a good team-centric way, a natural leader; good blocking technique and tenacity; not afraid to go across the middle; has shown some open-field running ability and is excellent at reading his blocks.
|
| Weaknesses | He lacks great speed, often looks much slower than his 40 times; tends to get lazy on his routes, especially when he is not the primary receiver; does not get good separation down the field; The latest in a long line of LSU wideouts, Doucet is more difficult than most to evaluate because of limited opportunity due to playing behind 07 1st rounders Bowe and Davis, plus missing time in 07 due to injuries. The more I watch Doucet the more I’m reminded of Joe Jurevicius or Amani Toomer--solid complementary wideouts that coaches love and teammates respect, and who can step up with a huge game when called upon.
