he's the kind of player you could make a great highlight reel of, but once you start watching full games of him the excitement dies quickly.

he can't really move around the formation, and he runs about three routes in total (hitch, slant and go/fade). he's a straight-line guy without the speed threat, and for a bigger receiver it's amazing how bad he is at beating press coverage. it takes everything he has just to get into his route after being beat up for five yards.

while he never gets separation, he does have the hands of God and wins catches that he has no business coming down with. which looks great on a YouTube clip. but that's a very narrow skillset in the NFL, and not worth all the other negatives you get when he's on the field.
