#2 for me would be separation. Some guys have it, some don't. Some guys are quick in cone drills, but have no instinct on separating from their man. They just can't read another body in motion and anticipate/set up their moves.

Yup, see Anquan Boldin, Fitzgerald, Johnson, Jenkins, Marshall, Colston, Moss, Green, Rice, etc. Vs every great athlete to have come into the game but flopped, why? Their hands and lack of concentration at the point of the catch. That's what really separates the great ones from the guys who are just athletes trying to play football.
