Worthy isn't Hardman. He can track the ball in the air. He's a much better route runner than Hardman was coming out too.

Funny thing about a Tyreek comp is that he wouldn't have run under it. He'd have run to the spot, jumped up and turned. He just never seemed as comfortable with the over the shoulder catch. Given his druthers, he'd turn and go up for it every time.
And as for that catch - it's a very good one but almost to the point that I'm not sure it's not about 1/2 luck. Let's do the most extreme example so as to not make this sound worse than it is. If OBJ attempted that insane Monday Night catch 50 times, he'd snag it maybe 3 or 4 of them. It took great skill to be in the position to make the catch but sometimes these guys surprise themselves. I kinda wonder if Worthy didn't there.
Though to your overarching point, yes, I far prefer Worthy to Mitchell. Because I think Worthy's floor is a lot higher. Worthy is GOING to produce in this league. Maybe never more than 5-600 yards in a season if he doesn't fully develop, but he'll produce.
Mitchell could just end up being Jalen Reagor. There's just nothing special there, IMO.
