Weight: 202

Position: WR

College: San Diego State

Drafted: Pick 34 of the 5th round by Miami
Analysis
Positives: Has a lean, athletic frame with good muscle development...Smooth and fluid in his release off the line...Flashes the ability to get vertical on defenders instantly...Runs, crisp, clean short routes and shows explosion in his acceleration to go deep...Makes good body adjustments going up for the ball and has the jumping ability to compete for the pigskin at its highest point...Drives hard to gain yards after the catch, displaying good twitch and hip swerve to separate...Smart player who easily reads coverages and quickly spots the seam in the zone.
Negatives: While he is smooth in his release, he struggles to escape vs. press coverage and is more comfortable working the zone, as he does not always gain separation in isolated coverage...Shows good explosion after the catch, but lacks ideal quickness, having to gear down to make sharp cuts...Does a nice job of tracking the ball in, but does have lapses where he loses focus...Willing blocker, but is too inconsistent to be relied upon to deliver the crack block at the second level...Extends his hands to haul in the pass, but does try to cradle catch at times, resulting in dropped balls.
