Ross just isn't terribly fast or terribly explosive. Like SS, he's smooth and has good body control. He has good hands. He wins on contested balls and at the catch point more often than he wins through creating space. And when he creates space, it's through some technical 'win' rather than raw athleticism.
Honestly he may just end up being what we hoped Gordon could be. A 3rd down and red zone possession option. And that would be a heck of a find as a UDFA.

On the radio, someone mentioned that his ceiling might be Herman Moore if he can stay healthy. If you squint with red-shaded glasses on, I can maybe see Herman Moore.
