re: Patterson = Robert Mechem 2

that's a stretch. meach is a great athlete (4.39 40 at the combine compared to patterson's 4.42) but an average receiver; he rarely uses his hands to catch the ball and doesn't really play the game with authority. that's the difference between the two imo.

You can cite 40 times and straight line speed all day - won't change the fact that CP is on a whole nother level athletically. The wiggle in CP's open field running is insane and the change of direction and break away speed to outrun great angles is unseen for players his size. He's as elusive as the small guys but still big and strong. He's maybe the best athlete UT has ever had.. along with Pickens.
