This thread gets started every week it seems like. Quinn has not been racially profiled by the recruiting sites, come on. Is he rated lower than he should be? Yes, #17 best WR according to 247 IIRC. 17 Seems very low, but 5*? No. He would have to be top 5 or 6 WR in the country for that. Id put him at like 10-12.
I've said it before. He is great at a lot of things, but unfortunately those things are the skills that most WRs have (hands, route running, speed). He doesn't have the things that truly separate very good WRs from great WRs (size, elusiveness/YAC ability, and athleticism). And by athleticism I don't mean he's not a good athlete, or he can't run or jump well cause that's obviously wrong. I mean ability to stop on a dime and make ridiculous cuts a la Jarvis Landry.

GeauxPack81,
True he does not have Megatron size, but no yards after catch or elusiveness? His film and many college coaches would disagree with you.
