I've never seen a team assign a receiver the job of outjumping a defender in close coverage on a consistent basis.

When you have a 6'5" receiver and under 6' DB's, and he's in single coverage down the field, it's kind of stupid not to throw it to him.

That is a low percentage assignment but it is the one given to Malachi. Its stupid football, but its how we use Dupre's athleticism.

It's only stupid b/c he isn't good at it, despite the supreme advantage of his natural abilities that should help him succeed at this.
