He will be a late 2nd, 3rd rounder, IMO. I'd absolutely take a flier. He's got the fire in the gut. He doesn't take the bus.

Not sure how high he goes but yeah he's going to play in the NFL. He's just one of those guys who will do anything to help a team, he'll play ST, he'll play FB.

The other thing I think people miss on him is he's a REALLY good receiver, for a thick muscular guy he can really go up and snag the ball.

I don't think his skillset translates well to the NFL and don't think he'll go before the fourth round, if that early. He's a good college player, but strictly a college player.

Looked a lot more comfortable, a lot smoother yesterday, albeit vs. a disheartened 49er secondary.

Did not meet the sky high expectations I had for him, but I think generally it was an okay rookie campaign.

Murray has a great connection with Big Play Trey. MHJ and Murray can build a great connection too. Just going to take some work.

4 of the top 10 receiving leaders this season were rookies. That is absolutely bonkers. It also blows a huge hole in the theory about recievers needing a year to acclimate to the NFL.

However, in Marvin's defense, those top 4 guys were #1 options in their offenses by the end of the year, while Marvin clearly was not. Taking everything into consideration, his stats really weren't that bad. They just weren't nearly as good as the top players in what looks like the best rookie receiving class in a long time. Potentially ever if they keep it up.

It's not even the stats for me it's all the plays he left on the field. Even in the SF game he had a jump ball in the endzone. That's a TD 9 of 10 for D Hop, 8 of 10 for Rob Moore, those are the 2 guys we were told he might be like big guys who can get the jump balls, but faster than either guy. I think he's about 3 out of 10 on those balls this year.

There was an absolute moron today saying rookies can't be expected to contribute. A DUCKING moron

Marvin had a good rookie year, by any traditional measure.

Nearly 900 yards and 8 TD's is a good year. He has some things to work on, but they are easily fixable things.

And while I don't think Petzing is to blame for the dink and dunk offense I do think he used Marv poorly to start the year.

i have neither the skillz nor time to go look it up, but:

I am 100% certain there is a thead deep in the archives here on Fitz that probably sounds much the same as this one
I think we're mostly just frustrated that Marvin isn't Larry. Larry's first career catch was a beautiful high point. We're used to guys like Larry or Hopkins who catch everything around them while Marv's game is more finesse. Marv is a bigger, slower, Hollywood brown.
