He is a guy that has had an up and down career and he fought through a serious ankle injury in '97 and appeared to have lost a lot of his speed and explosiveness. He has, however, made steady improvement and had an outstanding senior year and followed it up with an excellent week at the Senior Bowl where coaches raved about his playmaking abilities and consistency as a receiver. He doesn't always look real natural catching the ball, but he makes almost every play and he seems to catch every pass in his direction. While he lacks great deep speed, he has outstanding quickness and an excellent short area burst, which gives him separation and the ability to avoid the bump. He also has a "sneaky" extra gear, which allows him to get deep more often than his speed would indicate. He is excellent when running with the ball after the catch and he also has some ability as a return specialist. He is not always a real natural looking player, but you cannot deny his production and performance in big games. This is a guy that is starting to look like the "real deal" and he may be sneaking up most NFL draft charts.
