A big WR, which I like but a slow one, which I don't like.

#4 already and it's only May. this is unprecedented for us.

 

[Mr Janny]

That's very good size for a wideout. 4.65 is not fantastic, but in a WR size, bulk, and technique can overcome a lack of speed.

Unless there is an R next to that time, they could have pulled it off a cereal box. ISU wanted him, and got him. Nice to see our class adding players throughout the offseason.

Future tight end?

 

[Rhoadhoused]

If CPR offered him that early I'm fine with it. Hopefully we can get some decent prospects early in the year and then be able to close on some really sought after prospects at the end of the period.

He's got plenty of speed. He gets behind the CBs quite a bit, and rather easily. He'll never be confused with a burner, but he's got enough speed to be a WR that you offer this early. I'd say he's a WR all the way.

Edit: I see Scout said he also plays DE in High school. He would be a great athlete for DE if we wanted that.

 

[JUKEBOX]

He looks like he has the tools.

 

[gocubs2118]

I never said I didn't like him. I love his size but he's just on the slower side if that number is accurate.

I think the words you are looking for are 'tight end'.

Didn't McNutt run like a 4.8? This kid could play receiver if he wants.

 

[BigCojones]

I'm sitting there watching his highlight video all of a sudden intrigued by his QB.

A la, Marquis Hamilton style? I dont recall him ever being the fastest WR we've had in the past number of years.

Agreed, just thought he would have an advantage at tightend given his size and WR ability.

That's a fair comparison. He's got a bit more size than Marquis though.

Especially when scout lists one of his strengths as blocking. If he switched to TE, I would think he'd play similar to Franklin.
