[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1027535, member: 18006"] First off, thanks for that link. I hadn't seen that. That's some good information there; yeah, he really does speak like a bright kid, and skipping a year in high school says a lot too. That's encouraging, because two of the scouting reports I read said he had difficulty mastering the route tree. But if he's that smart, that may be something he can pick up. And, as you say, the same with the blocking. It sure sounds like he's not afraid of contact, so picking up some technique from an NFL coaching staff could help a lot. At least one of the scouting reports I read said that he needs to learn to keep his pad level down (remember Mike McCarthy grumbling about that in almost every post-game presser?), so as you say, that's correctable. He's a raw prospect (always a bit risky for a kid to declare so young), and most teams will probably be cautious about him. But he's got enough going on that I can easily imagine some team taking a flyer on him in the 2nd. Not sure whether I want it to be [I]us[/I], but if we do, I'm willing to trust the brain trust's judgment. We have the luxury of a lot of early picks; we can afford a long shot better than most other teams can. [/QUOTE]
