Physical Attributes – Let's with Darrius’s Verified 4.37 40 at 6’3 205lbs.  Elite straight-line speed for a big man.  Is an upright runner type who has a thick body and is a Long strider.  He shows solid balance and body control, feet and quicks but ultimately makes his  money off his long speed,  length, catch radius and soft hands.  Darrius can decently drop weight and change direction and can put his foot in the ground at the top of his routes.  A talented and athletic big WR

Position Specific Skills –  Darrius shows the skills to be a terror as an true outside WR.  His vertical game is one of the best I've seen on film for his height, length and long speed.  He will demand space with his ability to make plays over the top which will enhance his short game with his get off, ability to drop weight and make cuts. After the catch he can take the top off.   He has good hands  and can be a red zone threat with his skills.  He also shows toughness in the blocking game where he uses his length and size to over power smaller CB’s.    

Overall – Darrrius is a big, long, deep threat who can use the cushion the CB gives to make plays in the short game.  A deep, home run threat at all times, Darrius will demand attention to not give up explosive plays to him over the top.  He is not a make you miss runner with elite change of directions skills but more of a long striding, long route, big play WR who can put his foot in the ground at full speed to create separation.  He must work on short area quickness and ability to come in and out of cuts in the short game.  If he does he will be an absolute nightmare.
