RR was great and is doing great in the NFL. But I expect Dupre to be better.
but it's pretty reasonable to think that he'll put up better numbers considering our offense then vs. now
And I'd say he compares most favorable with Clayton.

He is very similar to Amari Cooper at Bama to me more so than our past WRs.

I know. And im a huge RR fan and think the world of the guy. And I still expect Dupre to be better. Similar size and stature as RR, but Dupre is on a diff level athletically. 41+inch vert and runs in the 4.5s right now.
We havent had a WR where you can throw it up to him in coverage and he goes up and gets it over a DB in a long time. We have that with Dupre. He can go up and make some ridiculous acrobatic catches over DBs. Best jump ball WR to come out since AJ Green.
And its not like thats all he can do. Extremely polished WR when it comes to route running and catching the ball away from his body with his hands. And plays in the veer offense, he knows how to run block. IMO, hes the best overall WR prospect to come out since the 2008 year with AJ Green and Julio.
Dont really see the Clayton comparison.

I say none of them. Think he will establish a new precedent for receiver along with Quinn. Dupre athleticism is off the charts.
