Yes and the frkkn Alabama lineman that did not even go to combines
and weighs as much as two trucks got drafted in the top 5. What did
he show at the combines? Its the upside. Nicks has better than average
speed for his size
, and his speed will improve when he loses weight.

He can go up and catch balls in traffic. The trend is towards larger
receivers as CB's get smaller and faster. If they try putting a safety on
him he is strong enough to get off the line. I see nothing wrong with the pick
at all. They wanted a Burress type. The got the body type that can
develop into one. Who were you looking for?
