Now you're telling me that this kid is going to step right in at a position that is extremely difficult to adjust to in the pros, and be a significant piece of the puzzle?
He may down the road, but you're expecting way too much early, IMO.
People are comparing him to Welker, FFS. Wes Welker is a legit slot WR.
This guy is a RB we're converting to slot WR.

Look at the senoir bowl tape. His transition shouldn't be too hard.
