Angular with very long arms. Catches balls even when draped over. Has body just like AJ (body double). Has deceptive speed and long strider. Teams can't double AJ and Higgins, so one of them now has 1 on 1 on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothD Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 I predicted weeks ago that they would take a WR in the 2nd as AJ's replacement. However, when Josh Jones made it to the 2nd round, I surely thought he would be the pick. Either way I'm happy with the pick. Don't let his 40 time and vertical fool y'all. This dude is a baller. I bet he picks #85 to wear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the OL won't have as much pressure as teams will be afraid to blitz as much now --- then when the Red water pistol was back there panicing and tossing up wounded ducks into the stands. The problem is a decent press corner will never allow him to get off the line. He's thin and weak and that's how you take his game away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is more productive/polished than Mims, Claypool, or Shenault. But smaller, less explosive, and slower. Same speed as Pittman, but smaller, less physical, worse hands, less versatile, a worse blocker, and a less polished route runner. The fact that he got shut down vs OSU/LSU also does not bode well. I can get taking him over Mims, Claypool, and Shenault, but not Pittman. There are positives. He is only 21, could still get bigger, stronger, faster. Bengals fan growing up. And he is better than Ross. Who starts at WR with AJ? Pick two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleEarl Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 Haha. I really, really hope this guy is a player. I want to hear all you guys eating crow. Paul Alexander wanted Jones. That’s all I needed to hear. No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 He doesn't have the upside of Mims, but he's probably more reliable, and more ready to play right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason they couldn't keep AJ and Tee, at least for the length of Tee's rookie contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
