 How do you see him being used in this offense? Will he mostly be running deep routes like Moss or will they have him running those underneath slants like Rice and Taylor did with the 49ers a lot.
I would imagine both. He is going to be able to out muscle and out jump most DBs on deep routes, and will be a nightmare to tackle on slant routes. And, how many Corners are going to be able to press him and bump him at the line?

Seems to me like he is a true outside receiver....leave the cone drills to guys like Baldwin and T Lock.

The quick slants should be open often for DK because with his deep speed and strength to overpower the jam, corners will just have to play off him at the LOS. or they will have to roll LB or S help over to close that window, which should open the middle for Dissly/Dixon/Vannett or the other side for Lockett/Jennings/Brown. Heard Brock conjecturing that they run way more RPOs now that Baldwin's precise quick route running has been replaced by DK and Jennings' speed and size on the edge. Seems a good complement to the power run game of Carson/Penny/Fluke/Iupati.

Looks like DK might be taller than Griffin. Looks like he can jump higher too. Looks like he can catch a contested ball in traffic. DK might be a good receiver to have on our team.

I wonder who threw that pass. A jump ball between Metcalf and Griffin shouldn't even be close.

Maybe DK highpointed it well above Griffin and was coming down when dude snapped the photo.

Fair enough but a 5'9" corner shouldn't even be able to get his hand in there. Maybe Shaq got hops.. :shock:
