When he turned the corner after his reception at Auburn....

He just blew by everyone.

Good player. Get him in the right situation and matchup, and he could shine.

Hopefully Dillon has a great year but he didn't have a great 2018, though he had some shining moments. In terms of receivers targeted more than 10 times last season, he had the lowest catch percentage (6/18 33%), yes lower than Giles (7/19 37%). Only 2 guys had a lower catch percentage CEH (1/4 25%) and J. Phillips (0/1 0%).

I do think DD has tremendous upside and feel like (no supporting prove, just a gut feeling) many of his misses in 2018 were impossible catches due to being overthrown or poorly thrown.

For reference

Derrick is lightning fast and quick, but he has bad hands. Catches with his body.

Hopefully he develops those skills better.

Johnny Musso's tenure in tuscaloosa surely saw him graduate with an MD and a PHD... if you have to ask google him...

Leonard Fournette dropped exactly zero passes at LSU last year. Just sayin’.

Yeah, the site I copied from had that rong. I saw it and was gonna change it but I'm an old man and forget things, sometimes almost immediately

Yeah, with the Saints guy helping out the passing game, Dillon should improve on the short screen stuff. He’s definitely got the most wiggle to me in turns of our WR’s.

Why Giles was returning punts instead of Dillion always confused me.


Less risk of muff with the fair catch machine Giles vs. more explosive with Dillon.

Regardless, hope Stingley wins the job this year.
