How do you feel about this NFL-LSU comparison?

Brown in the open field is one of the most dynamic receivers I’ve ever seen. Chase, while great, doesn’t nearly have the wiggle Brown has. From my perspective, OBJ and Brown are closer comparisons. They are devastating to LBs and safeties in the slot.
I like the Hop comparison, but Hop is a better tracker and has unbelievable hands with a crazy ability to contort his body in air to catch balls others can’t.

I like to compare Chase to a combination of Jerry Rice and Randy Moss. He has 6’1”-6’2” height, 200 lbs, elite route running (Rice), knowledge concept of routes (Rice), range and speed of Moss. Moss was a 4.38 guy and based on what I saw in Chase last season he is getting faster than that 4.5 he ran at the opening. He is likely in the low 4.4’s now without training.
Rice was football fast and extremely gifted at getting to a spot and YAC.
Moss could flat out blow by you.
Chase has both. There isn’t really a great comparison. Let’s see how he does with someone else tossing to him and a different play caller.

Time will tell. His future does look extremely bright as in perennial all pro.

If open field is the subject then lets talk Justin Jefferson.

He might just be a younger version of ja'marr chase.

He plays a lot like Steve Smith imo

More physical than a 3 time first team all pro arguably the best wr in the game???? Come on bro I love Chase like the rest of us but he isn’t more physical than Hop. Brown yes but Hop is a straight dawg. Only time will tell. Chase def has more speed and home run ability than Hop but Hop is the best contested catch wr in the game.

Pissed off Texans season ticket holder here. I love Hop and believe he is in the top 3 of the league. He is just a gifted receiver. The one thing you said about him being physical is spot on.

However, he has other issues that should be noted. Because he plays physical to make-up for either the poor QB throws that Watson tended to do OR he gets lazy in his route running at times, he pushes off more than any other receiver in the league. His OPI is horrible and quite frankly pisses me off because it takes away from what he does so well - track and catch the ball.

That’s why he isn’t the best and others if they dedicated themselves like him- cough cough OBJ could be better than him.

Julio Jones is the best all around receiver IMO. Physical, athletic, great in the air, fast, etc.
