Fastest guy at the combine.

Eating disorder? Isn't UAB the school that just shut down its FB program? Maybe they didn't have a training table.

Good to know

If he doesn't break in half when tackled he could be a solid return guy for us.

Drafted two anorexic guys in a row. Jeebus

 

[CtCardinals78]

This kid is fast, but I hope he holds up.

 

[WisconsinCard]

Kid reminds me of Desean Jackson, a little smaller, but faster.

 

[Harry]

Fumble city. Had major problems with that and injury. He can break one if he lives long enough. Unlikely to get off the line if used as receiver. It's hard to decoy people laying on the ground.

 

[Mainstreet]

Sort of a Ryan Swope type pick in regard to speed.

 

[BW52]

Dislike this pick a bunch.First time the kid gets tackled he`s done for.Jeez what the hell happened to the draft>Today has been crap.

 

[splitsecond]

This guy is a pure returner and he is probably the fastest guy I have ever seen on a football field. I want to see him race Smokey in training camp!

Good thing he's a burner; built like a match stick.

 

[speedy]

Just watched his highlight film. Clearly the fastest guy on the field and seems to have pretty good vision.

But damn he is tiny. I don't see him lasting too long.

Would have much preferred they tab a CB like Ifo Ekpre-Olomu here. He may not be ready by start of the year but could play at some point and if anything he'll compete in 2016 when Powers & Bethel contract's expire.

You have to imagine the other ST players wanting to block a little harder. If this miss their assignment, J.J. gets broken in half and is just J.
