Reply to "ROUND 5 PICK 174 - WR MARQUEZ VALDES-SCANTLING (SOUTH FLORIDA)"

Now, check out this description of a wide receiver:

Height, weight, speed prospect with intriguing deep ball capabilities as a big field stretcher. He is a work in progress who hasn’t learned how to create leverage within his linear routes and doesn’t have the ball skills he will need to win downfield. He’s probably not ready to help a team just yet, but his issues may be correctable so he’s worth a Day 3 selection as a stash-and-coach prospect.

Sounds like Janis, doesn’t it? Instead, this is the description provided by NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein of wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a product of the University of South Florida.

Valdes-Scantling is indeed that type of receiver with elite size and speed but who will likely go in the late stages of the 2018 NFL Draft. Standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 206 pounds, he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.37 seconds at the Scouting Combine. He then posted excellent reported times in agility drills at USF’s Pro Day in March, with a 6.85-second 3-cone drill and a time of 4.17 seconds in the short shuttle.

By comparison, Janis measured in at 6-foot-2 7/8 and 219 pounds, and put up a 4.42 40, 6.64 cone, and 3.98 shuttle.
