he's nasty. his release, his routes, his ability after the catch...if you're having an off day as a corner, he'll make a highlight out of you. he runs right past press, and if you play off-man, his double moves can lock anybody's knees up -- he put a stop-and-go on Marlon Humphrey last year that juked the first-rounder back into his freshman year.

burst is elite once he has the ball, as he just outruns pursuit angles. not the biggest guy but he does the whole Marvin Harrison-DeSean Jackson trick of being too quick to hit squarely. hands are good, and he even returns punts. Chris Peterson's offense is more about running his system rather than feeding his studs, so he's had quiet games, but he can go off when called upon and is able to play any receiver position. he'd murder in the slot.

I like him better than John Ross coming out of college. throw him the ball for instant-offense.
