[QUOTE="TXPackerfan, post: 827723, member: 12427"] It's a fair criticism and I totally agree it's a boom or bust pick, but I think his stats are more of an indictment of Ole Miss' offense and QB. I watched DK in 3 games (youtube has vids edited to just his snaps) just to see how he was used, and the overwhelming majority of his routes were some variation of a curl/hitch and some variation of a go or stutter go...I'd wager over 90% of his routes fell in those two categories. DB's got used to just bailing initially then driving on curls; they didn't have to worry about anything else. Anytime he ran the rare slant, he'd break wide open vs man or find the open window vs zone but never get the ball. He'll be unstoppable on any in-breaking route. Same with quick screens vs off coverage, he was good at getting YAC but rarely got called to do it. If the Packers do finally commit to a run game, it'd be difficult to contain the run while single covering DK and/or Adams. The screenshot below is from Calvin Johnson's last year (88 rec over 1200 yds), and the green is all DK needs. He'd be elite at each of those imo, although I'd throw him more screens. Calvin was 2 inches taller and 10 lbs heavier, otherwise they're near mirror images test-wise: [ATTACH=full]15973[/ATTACH] Rogers would make him a star. [/QUOTE]
