Mecole



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.

You can't just compare one players strengths to another players weaknesses. Terry was only SLIGHTLY slower than Mecole on speed drills and better at everything else.

Other than the fact they're both fast, I don't know how Mecole was compared to Tyreek. Their change of direction, route running, IQ and overall feel for the game are vastly different.
