He was also a second round pick who played his college ball at FSU. Boldin knew how to get open. Coleman will learn. yea but Coleman is a couple inches taller and a few pounds lighter? I never watched anquan week in and week out but it seemed his special trait wasn’t finding soft spots as much as bullying we will see. I think the kid is productive and contributes in the nfl but I suspect that we talk about where this leaves his ceiling for his whole time here. A guy that doesn’t seize the number 1 spot but is better than many of the WRs drafted around him leaving him as great message board debate fodder. ((and I’m sidestepping the play where he’s trying to post up with that comment)) Edited Sunday at 03:31 PM by NoSaint 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there was a high level of technique involved in his game. There are many big strong dudes. There are not many ABs. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in broad strokes, he has a special quality - his strength- that is a tier up from Keon, even if they eventually play with similar technique was all I was getting at there.

Keon is a big pup who I think will grow into a man as far as core strength is concerned. Wouldn’t be surprised if his frame could pack another 15 lbs.

Not after getting his face broken by Eric Smith and then only missing 2 games. Dude had what? 7 plates and 40 screws in his face then went back into contact play. Absurd.
