I say again because in 2001 the Dolphins selected Chambers...one of the best kept secret's in the draft...in the next coming draft....another receiver named Jonathan Orr from Wisconsin is coming out...again like Chambers he doesn't have a top QB playing with him...in fact like Chambers when he played at Wisconsin, Orr doesn't get many throws his way...but like Chambers...he has size...awesome speed. With him across from Chambers the Dolphins would have one of the best receiving tandems in the NFL...Which receiver do you double cover....you can't double cover both of them...and what would he do for the running game....safeties couldn't cheat up towards the line....not when you have two receivers that can run sub 4.3 times. I'll post some info on Orr now so you can see what I mean;
Jonathan Orr...6016 195.
Overview</B>
[font=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif][size=-2] Jonathan Orr is another in a line of standout athletes with exceptional speed to perform at wide receiver for the Badgers. He has the explosive burst and ball adjustment skills of a Lee Evans and the size, athletic ability and toughness catching the ball in traffic of a Chris Chambers. The consummate team player, his production the last two years has been limited due to the team's problems at the quarterback position. However, Jonathan continued to contribute in other areas to compensate for the lack of chances he's received to show his awesome talent.
Orr was a Prep Star and Super Prep All-American receiver at Detroit powerhouse Henry Ford High School. He was rated one of the nation's top receivers according to Prep Star and was a first-team All-State choice by the Detroit News. Jonathan averaged 30.1 yards on 25 grabs for 753 yards and eleven touchdowns during his senior season. He earned All-City honors with 30 receptions for 705 yards and ten touchdowns as a junior. Jonathan excelled in track, running the 100 meters in 10.6 seconds. Jonathan also served as class president.
He redshirted as a freshman at Wisconsin in 2001, suiting up for the Michigan and Minnesota games. In 2002, Jonathan exploded on the collegiate scene for the Badgers, finishing second on the squad with 47 receptions for 842 yards (17.9 avg) and eight touchdowns, earning second-team Freshman All-American honors from The Sporting News. His 47 grabs rank ninth on the school's season-record list while his 842 yards rank fifth. Only Al Toon (9 in 1984 and Lee Evans (9 in 2001 and 13 in 2003) had more touch-down catches in a season for Wisconsin. What was even more impressive was the fact that 35 of those receptions resulted in first downs, including eight that he converted on third-down plays while sixteen of those catches came on scoring drives.
The team then shifted to a predominantly ground attack over the next two years. Jonathan was limited to seven catches for 117 yards (16.7 avg) in 2003, but six of those grabs resulted in first downs, with three of those grabs setting up touchdown drives. The team continued to use a two-tight end formation in 2004, as Jonathan was only able to gain 177 yards on thirteen catches (13.6 avg). Three of those receptions were good for touchdowns and twelve of those catches turned into first down plays, including converting seven third-down plays. Nine of his catches came on Badger scoring drives. In 39 games for the Badgers, Jonathan has 67 receptions for 1,136 yards (17.0 avg) and eleven touchdowns. His eleven scores rank eighth on the school's career-record list.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif][size=-1] Analysis</B>[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif][size=-2] Jonathan is a special athlete with outstanding timed speed. He is a naturally strong player who is field fast and carries his equipment well. He is very sudden out of his cuts and can catch cornerbacks off balance, as he sets up the defender well and has the speed to run by his opponent, showing a great kick to the ball in the open field. He is a natural hands catcher who has the body control and flexibility to make proper body adjustments in attempts to catch the off-target passes. He is very aggressive up field after the catch, showing the head fakes and moves to set up the defender.
In 2002, it looked like he was well on his way to establishing school receiving records before his career would come to an end. However, the team's quarterbacking situation the last two seasons has seen the passing game greatly suffer at Wisconsin. On the field, few receivers can match Orr's reaction to the ball and body adjustment skills. He has that blazing first step to get into his routes immediately, using his hands and long arms to defeat the jam and avoid contact at the line of scrimmage. His explosion off the ball can push the defensive backs out of their backpedal. He runs precise patterns and leverages his opponents with weaves and transition in and out of his breaks.
Orr is a very capable short area target, doing a nice job of using his frame to shield the defender off the ball. He has the natural hands to make all the catches and is especially alert to come back when the quarterback is flushed out of the pocket. He has the plant and cut ability to combine with his speed to create separation. Orr also has crisp, precise footwork to gain movement and release off the line with ease.
Jonathan does an excellent job of tracking the ball in flight, showing the body control to catch the ball near the sidelines or look the ball in over his shoulders while not losing stride. He moves to frame the ball well and has the ability to catch outside the body's framework. He has good RAC ability, but because he is used mostly on curls, crossing patterns and underneath routes, he has not been given enough opportunity to display that ability the last two seasons. Because of the poor quarterback situation, he has had to work on other areas of his game. He is a decent cut blocker who makes good effort, but does not have the raw power to be effective in that area when asked to block in-line.
He is smart enough to create opportunities for himself, but unless the team can find an arm at the quarterback position, Jonathan will continue to be one of the best-kept secrets in the college game. Given a chance to touch the ball as much as he did as a senior and Orr will rank among the elite of the 2006 draft class.[/size][/font]
