My comparison for him is Jeff Thomas

These are the types of comps that make sense.

5'10 - 5'11 (maybe) kids, about 175-180, with ELITE speed.

This kid isn't any comp for a white receiver. No, he's not ******* Wes Welker LMAO. This dude is an insane athlete. He's got high end NFL speed.

He's Jeff Thomas, Desean Jackson, Xavier Worthy (not quite as fast)....those are the comps for this kid. Wiry, short, ELITE speed WRs with game-changing quickness. AKA....not very many white dudes on Earth LOL
 
on a different note ... apparently georgia cornered the market on white wr's ... they had two highly ranked guys prior to stafford decommit

Yeah this is no Anthony Schwartz. He’s a gamer and happens to have elite speed.

The reverse is true, he doesn't have that kind of speed. He's plenty fast, Schwartz was as elite in the speed department as it gets. That's all he was though, a one trick pony and for the life of me, I'll never understand how you couldn't get more out of him at the college level. Seems he had some injury issues combined with nothing too impressive in the NFL.

Anyone have vert numbers? He looks like he can get up for the ball on some of the clips. He has outstanding hands and tracks the ball with no problem.

He's sort of mid in elusiveness after the catch, doesn't make a lot of people miss. That's okay, when he gets a seam or past someone, you don't see defenders running with him. He destroys most angles and the only thing slowing him down is underthrown or behind him passes. When he hits the field here, I'd love to see him get some reps in a critical possession game. Run some routes at 80%, then call his number telling him to unleash that speed.

Exciting prospect.

What makes me laugh about that video are the reactions while he was running of the other people. They all knew he was fast. It always reminds me of the Cosby kids from the old Bill Cosby show all going crazy (the cartoon, not the Huxtibles).

Yes, hes one of those guys. People are just not use to seeing a YT boy that fast and explosive and I understand. But this kid is one of those types.
