Neither were the deep threat that Dural is. Dural is averaging 25+ yards a catch. thats more than either Jarvis or OBJ averaged at LSU. I am not saying Dural is better, but having a deep threat like Dural would have been huge in 2012. I think OBJ is overaed as far as being a deep threat goes. he is fast, and hell go up and grab a ball, but he doesn't get anywhere near the separation you see with Dural or even what we would see with Rueben Randle.

Just stop dude. In 2012, Mett over threw every WR going deep, by 5 yards. He had zero touch on deep passes. If you want, I could look up countless of threads on this during that time.

He had issues on the deep ball, but could still connect from time to time. His intermediate passing set him apart.

He showed up vs Bama. If AJ does the same vs Ole Miss this week or Bama, I'll certainly change my mind about him.

i cant believe this is even in dispute. he was so consistently 5 to 10 yards long on every deep ball that i was even optimistic about it, because it seemed like a very fixable problem, the throws were accurate, just too long. he simply needed coaching and practice. which he got.
