It is, he's got freakish length. Crazy catching radius.

Warming up very quickly to this pick.
> Overall, the definition of a playmaker is a player who turns small plays into big plays and that is exactly what Aiyuk can do with his dynamic athleticism, projecting similar to Emmanuel Sanders (his skill set, role and impact) at the NFL level.

Aiyuk+Kittle+Deebo means there will constantly be three guys on the field that can pick up massive YAC.

And if McKinnon is 90%+ back to form, with Hurd and Taylor healthy...

OBJ comparison?

Kinda. I think he's probably a better YAC Emmanuel Sanders.

watching highlights and thinking he looks like Sanders

It's alien. Never seen before on someone his height

Jalen Hurd.

He quickly got hurt and didn't contribute.

But he is still on this team.

There is no evidence to say he will contribute.

There is not evidence to say he won't contribute.

Speculation is speculation. For now, he's on the team and will play if able.
Good height, good weight, impressive vert, appears fast, routes look good. Any word on his hands?
Another WR who played RB. Kyle looking for major vision/toughness post catch.

Aiyuk/Samuel/Hurd/Taylor...

Kittle.

crazy. have to put that into the equation when knocking his height. you don't (typically...) catch balls with your head. with those arms he probably plays like a receiver a couple of inches taller than his list height.
Shanahan drafts a Shananan-type WR and some people are shocked and upset.

What's up with the way that Aiyuk carries the ball when he runs? Just asking to get it stripped

It can be corrected.
Yasssssssss
He ran a 4.45 with a core/groin injury, and has a 40 inch vertical, which is what elite nba leapers have. He runs like Jerry Rice.
