Official Bio

Stars
Strengths:
Excellent height and bulk with long arms and large hands --- Very athletic --- Deceptive speed --- Great leaping ability --- Terrific ball skills and body control --- Vertical threat who makes plays downfield --- Real physical and aggressive --- Knows how to use his size --- Runs with power and will break tackles --- Nice vision --- Good strength --- Terrific stiff-arm --- Above  average  blocker --- Competitive --- Still  has upside.

Weaknesses:
Will drop some passes --- A very unpolished route runner --- Not overly quick or explosive and lacks a burst --- Not real elusive and won't make defenders miss --- Pad level might be a problem --- Ability to beat the jam is a question mark --- Must adjust to a pro style offense --- Health?

Notes:
Nickname is "Bay-Bay" and that is what most call him --- A three-year starter for the Yellow Jackets --- Garnered 1st Team All-ACC honors in 2009 --- Was responsible for 46 of the Rambling Wreck's 78 receptions and 8 of their 11 touchdown catches in 2009 --- Played in a triple-option offense in college, which allowed him to feast on single coverage and catch cornerbacks by surprise when they actually did pass --- Broke his foot while training in February and will be unable to work out for teams prior to the 2010 NFL Draft --- Was rumored to have been running in the 4.3's and on pace to amaze at the Scouting Combine prior to the injury --- A very intriguing prospect and extremely impressive physical specimen but also carries considerable risk due to all of the projection that's involved in his evaluation --- Looks like a first round pick on paper and appears to have all of the physical tools that you look for --- Could potentially be a true #1 wideout at the next level.
