Weight: 247
Position: WR
College: Stanford
Drafted: Pick 31 of the 2nd round by Oakland
Analysis
Positives: Natural athlete with a very impressive height/weight/speed factor... Has a well-developed frame that packs a lot of power...Displays functional upfield quickness and the acceleration to elude defenders after the catch...Has the body control to make sharp cuts coming out of his routes...Shows good timing to the stick posts and on corner routes... Uses his quickness and power to gain most of his yardage after the catch...Shows good timing going up for the ball in flight and a competitive nature to wrest the ball away from defenders in traffic...Extends his arms properly and catches with his hands...Has the strength to escape press coverage...Shows aggression and functional strength when called upon for blocking purposes...Capable of making the crack block upfield...Knows how to come back for the underneath and off-target passes.
Negatives: While he has good speed, he sometimes looks hesitant in his initial step off the line...Little stiff running his routes and inconsistent protecting the ball on the run...Not always aware of the playing field and tends to have balance problems working the side-lines...While his hands appear natural, he can drop the easy passes due to a lack of concentration and only adequate arm extension (has made improvements in this area over the last year), especially when he gets into a rhythm where he body-catches, rather than reach for the ball...Flashes some flexibility adjusting to the ball, but he's not as aware of his surroundings on the field as one would like.
