Mclaurin
Quote:
Weaknesses
Has build-up speed, but lacks early acceleration
Body catcher with below-average extension and high-pointing
Will need to intensify pace of his routes as a pro
Long strides hinder short-area work underneath
Lacks suddenness to separate from tight man

Mecole
Quote:
Strengths
Only two seasons as receiver and is likely to rapidly develop
Too sudden to press
Rapid turnover when burning down the track
Early burst turns to pull-away speed on vertical routes
Smooth ball-tracker bringing it in over his shoulder
Combines speed/quickness to uncover on all three levels
Bouncy leaper
Wiggle to elude first tackle and speed to house it
Tough runner with ball in his hands. Explosive punt-return potential, averaging a little over 20 yards per return this year

Mecole's strengths were much more in line with trying to replace Hill with the thought that Tyreek was soon to be cut...
Based on the above you can see why Veach went with Mecole as a Tyreek fill in instead of McLaurin, despite McLaurin in hindsight, having a better career.
