It seems like every game he's always writhing in pain from what looks like routine tackles , then he has to miss a couple plays. Might not be a big deal, but when it happens constantly, it starts to get a tad irritating.
Not an overly big receiver, but uses his body pretty well for his size.
Finds ways to get open in the red zone for TDs.
Pretty good hands
I want the Eagles to keep him, and he'd be a nice addition to the Chiefs, but I would not go crazy for him. He's yet to "break out" and prove that he is more than a #2 receiver in the NFL.

Yeah, his numbers so far dont bear him out as a #1... I think the main reasons most of us want him here are
a) solid speed
b) knows the system
c) will be reasonable with contract demands
