There's too much conflation of his injuries with his performance by the posters of this board, on average.
PDub started a little slow last year recovering from an ACL, but it didn't take him long to start getting open and making plays and he is a HANDFULL for opposing DBs to take on. He's a tough cover, period, because he has good instincts in using his body to 'box out' DBs, high-point the ball or at least get up so DBs struggle to knock down the pass. The dude is just savvy beyond his years of experience and he has the physical gifts of a mid- 1st round pick, or better. I think he's already as able, from a skill standpoint, as a Golladay. He plays a big receiver's game but he's not slow.
His injuries had nothing to do with how he plays, or weak hamstrings, and there's nothing he could've done from a preparation or training standpoint, to have avoided the 2 injuries he had. I strongly feel he's going to go through a long period of good health and blow some peoples' minds, because he's still ascending, skill-wise, as he gets more experience. I also think this will include run-blocking. I think he will be a beast of a blocker from the WR position so stretch plays or jet sweeps and stuff may succeed better with him blocking than a smaller guy on that edge.
If I told you you could have a guy like Oronde Gadsden with 20% more speed....
