want him playing with Brees as 32nd pick of first round

Really though, think about how incredible that would be.


I can't imagine Landry falling out of the 1st. I can't remember him ever dropping a ball.

Landry is tough as nails. That catch between 3 defenders against UGA was just ridiculous.

He also absolutely would have caught the back shoulder throw on 3rd down during the final drive if he hadn't been interfered with. Glad they let them play that day and LSU got away with a few too, but that one was blatant and deserved a call.

He'd be perfect out of the slot. He's an excellent blocker as well.

Steve Smith was a burner. Jarvis is not.

Jarvis is more like Hines Ward

This. Jarvis is quicker than fast, he'll probably run in the 4.6s at the combine next year.

That said he's almost unguardable in the slot right now with how quick he is and the precision of his routes. He'll be a starting slot receiver in the NFL in 2014, BLEE DAT.

Jarvis is a stud. While i wont call him the best WR in the nation because hes not really a #1 WR, hes an awesome #2. Plus, Jordan Matthews and Mike Evans are the best WRs in the nation IMO. But, Jarvis is right up there with them.

Reason I dont think he will be in the 1st is because hes more of a #2 WR. Hes a blend of Anquain Boldin and Victor Cruz and Steve Smith. I see him going in the 2nd round to a really good team, and he makes an impact from day 1. If he goes to a team with a great QB, lookout. He will be a stud. Def will make an impact on special teams too.

No he's not. You are wrong as usual.

Best comparison is Justin Blackmon, although not quite as fast. However, both are smooth route runners and natural wrs with good instincts and incredible ball skills. Neither is physically imposing, but Landry is more than capable of laying down a block.

His NFL status (whether he's a 1st rounder or not) all depends on his 40.

4.5+ means 2nd-3rd RD.

4.4 anything means 1st rd

Terrible comp.


He is closer to Hines Ward to me. Physical receiver with no real attributes that jump off the page (height, speed, etc.) but he does everything above average and moves chains.

Not really. GM's are starting to get away from the al Davis draft system of draft the player with the fastest 40 time who is athletic. Too many players have been bust off that philosophy. They are starting to take more into account what a player does on film, and their character, more than 40 time. Landry May or may not get into the first, but he will be gone no later than the top half of the second round.
