His most notable traits -- physicality and body control/ball tracking -- are difficult to quantify.
It's why a guy like Adams falls. Hell, it's why Jefferson fell. They don't jump off the page in any single area. They're just guys that do a LOT of things really well and their best traits are easier to overlook than a guy like Worthy who runs fast or a guy like Tet McMillan who's just very damn big.
A 'sum of very strong parts' guy is just someone that's harder to project and doesn't always leap off your screen.
But I just struggle a TON to find a skill that isn't at least
good for an NFL wide receiver. Maybe release?
All the rest of it is related to use. His route tree, his focus, his attitude, his snaps on the boundary. It's ALL use. Hell, even the release questions are mostly because Mizzou used him a lot in the slot or out of the backfield. When on the boundary, he generally did fine there in the limited times he was out wide and teams pressed him.
Purely from traits, there's nothing he doesn't do very very well.
