But you’re right, he is solid (not great) as a catch and run guy.
Even Sammy Watkins struggled beating press coverage coming out of college....


Aiyuk is a JUCO transfer and is clearly still a bit raw, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t going to get better in those areas like Sammy.

And no, Aiyuk is still more similar to Watkins than Hardman/Hill. I’ve heard multiple draft guys like Matt Miller make that comparison as well. I didn’t pull it out of my ass.

This is really simple, we were talking about Reagor being redundant and I pointed out that Aiyuk gives you more size and run after the catch ability while still having the speed to challenge vertically. If you don’t agree with that, you’re clueless.
