I get a Tyreek vibe.
Not as thick obviously.
But the explosion, constant separation, surprising capabilities vs press, as you mention !
We should consider Austin even in round 3.
Pundits point out his across the board wins in track,
and that CA III is definitely a football player now.
Pundits point
Also a good PR.
5'7 173# is a similar build to Hill at 5'9" 185#

Same Tyreek vibe for me. Not all small guys are Hill, obviously, but looking at the whole body of work I think Austin's going to be a good NFL player. He's a complete WR, not a gadget player. He just happens to be 5'7"
Also a good PR.

Remember how strong Sproles was ?
I was just comparing to Sproles because of how fast their legs move when running at full speed.

Oh, you mean as thick as Sproles? Yeah, Sproles was a monster. Like 5'6" 195# and ripped. Austin is a WR body instead of a RB body but he still doesn't have a slight frame.

It was fun to watch him in pass pro.
Rivers could destroy blitzes by waiting until the last moment and dropping off to Darren in the flat.We do not play modern football.

Seau & the Hitman kinda got my goat. Was that AJ or Butler?
Klien and John Jefferson? Fred Dean?

Shame SD never had the owner it deserved.....
