Demaryius Thomas


Actually not a bad comparison. I just hope he develops more consistent hands than Demaryius. I actually really really want to see Drake on kick coverage teams. I feel like he could be a bigger version of Jarvis on special teams and wreak havoc.

I think he can be a more physical version of Demaryius Thomas, with possibly even more speed, because although Thomas is a big strong receiver, he doesnt play like it sometimes.

Even from limited amount of footage I've seen of Drake, you can tell he really likes to hit people more than Thomas. Some of those blocks he was throwing on people on his HUDL videos were flat out pancake blocks.

He played with my oldest at Dunham starting in 7th grade. He was a man among boys. I said back then that he'd be a top 5 WR nationally by the time he graduated. He reminded me then and now of Brandon Lafell but faster. His problem is hands and maturity. Hopefully both have improved. I can't wait to see him play for the Tigers.

His hands aren't like that. He's Julio Jones part two, stone hands and all. Good news is he's gonna be so big, strong, and fast that it won't matter too much how good his hands are


He doesn't have stone hands. His problem is that he doesn't wear gloves for some reason. I mean I guess you can consider that bad hands, but with the gloves they have today, his problem is easily taken care of.
