hi-res-185674361-nelson-agholor-of-the-u

 

vs Colorado, vs Cal

 

The Good: 

 

Lean, athletic frame like his predecessors (Robert Woods and Marqis Lee) 

 

Does a good job tracking the ball over his shoulder.

 

Potential as a dangerous punt returner. 

 

Lines up all over the field. Even lines up in the backfield on some occasions. 

 

Picks up speed as he goes. Possess a great 2nd gear. 

 

Yards after catch ability. Posses good vision after the catch. Turns up field quickly after securing the ball. 

 

Good, savvy route-runner. Able to create seperation 1-on-1. Nice little double-move. 

  ex. 2:08 vs Colorado

  ex. 5:04 vs Colorado

 

Doesn't drop many passes. 

 

The Bad: 

 

Terrible run blocker.

 

Not very physical. Gets beat at the line of scrimmage by strong, long Dbs. 

 

Quick, not fast. Not going to take the top off of the defense in the NFL. Not going to be a homerun hitter. 

 

Pure slot receiver in the NFL.

 

Conclusion: 

 

DB only has 2 games on Agholor, and I wish they had more. I can't really get a good feel for him, but based off of what little I saw, I think Agholor is an average slot receiver at the next level. I don't really see anything that sticks out, and he looks almost exactly like Robert Woods and Maqis Lee. He's a decent athlete who is good at alot of things, but not great at anything.

 

Projected Round: 3rd

NFL Comp: Marqis Lee

 

Like I said, I think i'm done with WRs. I'll probably do ILBers next.

    • Agreed. Tom always brings thoughtful perspective to the forum and I enjoy reading his posts. 
    • Hey, Tom!    Good to see you posting again!    I know you like to show up this time of year to offer your insight.      As I like to tell you every year, I’m sure you’re posting as often as you can,  but I think many here would love to see you post more often!   This website is always better when you’re posting more!   
    • We, might... or we might not... or we might lose someone else to injury. It's just what happens in the league. If it's not one player it will be another. It's a violent sport and players will miss games.  You know how I feel about AR. I still think he needs improvements but the sky is the limit with him... I don't think there was anybody higher on him than me here. But first thing - he just needs to stay healthy.    Downs had a very promising rookie season. Hope he makes a jump in year 2 too...  Honestly. I'm not high on this TE group. The rumors about Woods are not great. Ogletree and Mallory IMO are JAGs at best. Which is OK for where they were drafted but they are not game changers. We need better... I guess if you believe in Brock Bowers we should be hoping he's there for us to take in the draft.  Cross will need to make the jump because it looks like we might be losing Blackmon. He had some flashes at the end of the year, but he still needs to show consistency over a prolonged period of time. I think Raimann is already very good. I'm not too enthused with the way Ballard has handled the DT position...    Steichen was already doing wonders with what he was given last year. IMO the hope is that AR stays healthy and is able to unlock the full potential of what Steichen envisions in his offense. 
    • I think I need to clarify something…,  I’m NOT suggesting Irsay isn’t filthy rich.  That the Colts aren’t sound financially.     All I’m saying is that from time to time the Colts might have cash flow problems.  Life as a small market team.   Nothing wrong with that.  The Colts do this (The “0” singing bonus) for a reason.  It benefits them.  And I think it’s smart business.   That’s all.
