Alright, Romeo Doubs (@RomeoDoubs) mega-thread
.... and it's all from one game.
I think some may have to think is status as bomber-only. There are plenty of things on this tape that translate directly to receivers / plays we have seen in MLF's offense before
1/
First one -- pretty simple. Uses the reputation as a burner to sell the vertical route and head to the sideline. Nice adjustment to a mediocre throw.
second one -- same thing, sell going N/S and break off to the sideline, nothing elite to see here
check out the athletic snap and toughness with the ball in his hands...
Now we're a little deeper in the bag. Again, sell the vertical, but this time a quick curl route. Good job catching the ball with the "diamond" away from his frame. Tough RAC again.
they used to run this stuff with MVS all the time. Just get him in a short crosser and have him outrun somebody to the sticks.
continuing to work off the vertical route tree -- that's a catch in the league, too -- I checked on the EZ View
a little positional versatility working from the #3!
I like this one -- working from the inside again, understands where to sit down in that zone and protect himself -- converts the 1st
Feels like we're past "deep threat"
Davante vibes. #sauce
third down.... he's got snap!
absolutely toasted the LCB.
absolutely toasted.
strong has a HOSE -- too quick for the camera kid
(strong is kinda sick)
crazy, crazy Davante vibes on these tunnel screens. Get skinny and go!
peep the clock -- they absolutely have to have this, check the stick-nod and the great hands
(also holy nuts carson strong)
BONUS -- the catch he almost made to tie the game on the 2 pt conversion after converting that third down
in summary: this is one of the four all-22 games I watched for Doubs for my @cheeseheadtv draft guide eval.
Obviously, it was intriguing because he caught 19 (!) balls, but also intriguing because he didn't catch a fly route!
I would not label Doubs as "just" a deep threat.
