- This is a player at the wide receiver position that is a playmaker and primetime performer.
- He may not be the fastest player, or the best athlete, but always a player that comes up with a game changing play during the course of a game, either through his play at the wide out spot or as a punt or kickoff returner, he is a triple threat, and that adds up to field position for a football team.
- As a wide receiver he reminds me of current NFL player "Rickey Proehl", in that he comes off as a receiver that physically can not consistently come up with the big play, but miraculously often does, he has excellent burst off the line, which allows him to avoid bump coverage against defensive backs, he is quick in and out of his routes, and has quick explosion after the catch, and has very deceptive game speed, he is not a possession receiver, more of a tweener that falls somewhere between a possession and strictly deep threat receiver.

- As a punt returner he reminds me of current NFL player "Tim Dwight", in that he attacks the holes to make plays, and more times that not he will make plays if given the opportunity, he has the burst and instincts to make things happen at any minute back there, he is a fearless returner.
- As a kickoff returner he reminds me of current NFL player "Wes Walker", in that he attacks just like with his punt returns, makes quick decisive decisions, hits the hole at full speed and makes things happened, a player that makes you stand up and watch to see what he does next.
