Just by looking at that film I know that he wouldn't be a big time recruit. First off he doesn't run a legit 4.5, he gets very little separation from the db's in his highlight and most of his catches are jump balls.

Well I've seen the kid run that fast in person, and he has long legs that make him look slower than he is. Even if he didn't run a 4.5, it doesn't mean he couldn't be big time. Some of the best receivers in the league run 4.6 and 4.7. Most people know 6'4" receivers that high point the ball instead of simply using their height don't grow on trees

be fair looking at the hudl film he had 2 plays that you could say he didn't get separation. a bunch of those plays were end zone passes where they were 25yds out you aren't going to get much separation on those routes. Just from that film he actually uses his body really well which is what you want to see in tall receivers. Didn't look like 4.5 speed more like 4.6-4.8 but that could be deceiving also.
From the film it looks like he is a year or two away from being a good college receiver definitely needs some coaching but you can't teach size and he has got it and he already uses his body really well so he will be a good sign for someone.

I wonder if he could develop into a TE with a couple of years to add some weight to his frame. Would be fast enough for a mismatch against LBs.
