They might be talking about him being pretty stiff. He's a straight line guy who is a RB after the catch. Average arm length, but flypaper hands.

He could kill it in the right system.

He's gonna do it, isn't he? God I loathe Boston sports but they're all so competent at it.

Yessir. If he lasts that long with the direction offenses are tending in the league. Seems like a fit in several places now. Some that come to mind that he would fit besides the Pats would be KC, AZ, Rams, NO to name a few.

nicely done! 

I wonder how his 10 yard split will compare to some guys who are labeled as more "quick" speed. 3 cone also. His knock so far from profiles I've read has been stiff hips and short area burst.

Nobody doubts his top gear though he fucking flies when he's up to speed.

i'm pessimistic, if he goes before 5th I'll be pleasantly surprised. I'd love to be crazy wrong. 

I have no doubts he's gonna do very well in the league. Pats gonna pick him in the 5th.

He SHOULD drop no lower than the 2nd round

 

its the nfl... he’ll be drafted late 3rd/early 4th round and be an absolute steal

This year’s extremely loaded at WR, so he may drop past the second, but we’ll see. He’s gonna have great film and great measurables.

He’s been getting projected in the 2nd or 3rd round in most places, and that was before he ran a 4.39. No chance he class to the 5th.

Umm I don’t wanna be that guy... but what is his fuckin weakness? Runs like a gazelle and catches everything. Maybe he’s not a “quick twitch” athlete.

quickness in and out of breaks is not great for a slot, stiff hips, lacks route polish. Those are the main things I've seen repeated. 

keep in mind that's just what I'm reading. Not what i think.

He's an animal and will do great in the nfl. Steve Smith type player potentially with more speed.

 

I'd LOVE to see him up here in Seattle. We need WR so badly with reliable hands.

I think before this past season many of us would've said he was somewhat stiff. And even with his performance this past season he isn't a WR you'd describe as having a lot of wiggle.

Wiggle can be overrated in the NFL unless you're exceptionally quick like the baby puncher. Delpit learned about his strength a couple times.

I agree. Most guys aren't gonna juke anyone out of their shorts in the NFL. It's about catching the ball and immediately turning up field,  but the one area where wiggle can pay dividends for WRs is with their route running.

What NFL team besides the patriots will best take advantage of Devin's talents??

Sounds weird but maybe the raiders? New stadium, Las Vegas, seems like a guy Gruden would love. Decent QB

Lol fuck Al Davis, but I like Chucky and hope the Las Vegas team does good. I've been to Lambeau, and honestly this would be the only other NFL stadium I'm interested in going and watching an NFL game at.

Let’s fucking go. I don’t know why I didn’t think he would be that fast, but when I think about some of his catch and runs, it makes sense. Please get to a landing spot that doesn’t swallow your career whole. Please.
