DJ Chark moving up draft boards

The scoop: LSU's hiring of offensive coordinator Matt Canada (previously at Pitt) after last season is already creating vertical opportunities for LSU WR D.J. Chark. Some in the scouting community believe he will fly up draft boards thanks to his speed and ability to return punts.
The skinny: I rated Chark the No. 6 WR to watch heading into the season, but that already seems to be too low, according to what I'm hearing from scouts. Chark has blazing speed and saw 8 of his 26 catches in 2016 go for 25 yards or more. Through two games this season, Chark is averaging 25.7 yards per catch (7 grabs for 180 yards) and returned two punts for touchdowns in last weekend's win over Chattanooga (although one was called back on a penalty). Matt Canada's offense allows for more frequent shots down the field off of play-action. With RB Derrius Guice forcing safeties to creep near the line of scrimmage for run support, Chark could be in for a big season and a trip up draft boards.

Took me a second. Can we just stick to the already established nicknames? This place is hard enough as it is

I dont feel bad for Mal. He knew he needed to improve

First thing I thought of. He chose... Poorly.

Chark has better hands than Malachi, although Dupree would definitely have benefitted from this offense.

Somebody send this shite to Terrace Marshall and Jamar Chase.

Will be a second round pick imo. Deep ball threat, will clock in the high 4.4s, good hands, size at 6-4.

Not poor Mal. You make choices and you live with them. He wasn't ready for the NFL, plain and simple.

Chark is the next AJ Green with 4.4 speed. AJ attacks the ball in the air better than Chark but Chark can work on that.

Dupre just wasn't good enough. He couldn't fight for the ball, pretty much had to be wide open. Chark's ball skills are significantly better.

I thought chark would never see the field when we recruited him. Looks like I'm stupid.

Dupre looked like he tried in just one game... against Louisville. Other than that he had no strength and minimal effort to go up and grab...
The fact he didn't make a roster shows any failure to reach potential is squarely on Malachi.

Who'd thought out of Noil, Quinn, Dupre and Chark that Chark would be the only sure fire drafted WR lol.

No kidding. Kudos to him for working hard instead of smoking weed, lacking self awareness and quitting when things got tough.
