Let's talk WRs

Why I don't like Funchess:

Mlive.com's Nick Baumgardner notes that Michigan junior WR Devin Funchess "has NFL talent," but "he hasn't played like it for a full game all season."
"Funchess has NFL talent. But he hasn't played like it for a full game all season. Someone on this offense (probably multiple people) are going to have to have super efforts for the Wolverines to have any shot," Baumgardner wrote. In three straight games, Funchess hasn't cracked the 50-yard receiving mark and it's been four straight since he's scored. Three of his four touchdowns came in the opening contest of the season. Baumgardner notes that Funchess has "spent the past month dropping passes, struggling to get open and really doing nothing in terms of playing through or against contact." While it's been a tough season for the Wolverines' prospect, he still is one the best physical talents in the nation. We're sure that smart NFL teams will understand that circumstance has hurt his numbers.

Even with his QB sucking, I'd still like to see him play hard and use his size to outmuscle DBs. He hasn't done that so far.

Funchess scares the shit out of me. I wouldn't take him in the first 2 rounds for sure. He seems lazy, mostly gets by on size against competition. Doesn't appear to have passion. His routes are shit. Reminds me alot of Jon Baldwin, but less talent than Baldwin.
