Skyler Green = small, really quick, good 40 time (4.44 if I remember correctly). Seemed to add too much weight when he left LSU and as a result lost a step. Great ability to see the field & dangerous cutback runner on screen and in the return game.

Holiday = Really Small, Quick as a cat! Track star speed, built and conditioned quick twitch athlete. Gets up field well, Vision is suspect, uses raw speed too much.

Holliday is the polar opposite of a guy like Reggie Bush and that's a good thing. He bails off around the end or up the field in the return game and does not look to get too creative. Personally I would rather teach a kid to get creative than try to make a dancing scat back to get up the damn field.

I think his showing at WR yesterday really improved his stock. I think he can do some great things as a slot WR/KR. Someone will take a chance on him and in the right system I believe he can bring the same mismatch problems Reggie Bush.

Holliday is small but so is D. Jackson, it's easy to forget how much Jackson got hammered by the talking heads at the combine when he was weighed and measured. He's working out pretty good for the Eagles.

As to if I feel he was underutilized, I would have to say yes. I am not a negatiger or a Hat Basher but in my own opinion in the last two seasons Garry Crowton has tried to too much and as a result accomplished very little. Our offense was not on the field long enough to feature anyone accept maybe our overwhelmed QBs. It really doesn’t matter how much talent we have on offense or who plays QB, our offensive system sucks.

You said a mouthful there. Not a bad sig quote.

Jackson is FIVE fricking inches taller than Holliday.
