And that's kinda my thought process here. AJ was far and away the best receiver I think we've ever had and it was largely due to his size and ball skills (and, as you say, his ability to win those "fade battles"). And again, I'm not saying that D-Rob's skills and athleticism aren't off the charts. I'm just thinking from a macro-view here....there are a LOT of receivers in each class every year....and I'm wondering if there really were no other guys with similar intangibles who ALSO possessed the size factor anywhere in the entire country.


AJ Greens don't come around in every class. No one like that in this one.

Agreed. Kyle Davis was probably the closest thing physically (6'2" 210 or so) that we were actively recruiting, but don't think he's quite got the same skill set that AJ had.

No, certainly not. Him and Julio in the same one was pretty crazy. That said, I'm simply saying there are some very good, taller guys out there usually. For a guy listed at 5'11-6'0 to be where D-Rob is in the rankings, he's gotta be something darn good. Hopefully we'll get to find out, first hand.
