He's only 6'1". Yes he is able to physically dominate in HS football. Not sure that's going to translate to the next level. Kind of reminds me of a slightly bigger chad bumphis. I can see the quick outs and across the middle looks but I didn't really see him as a true deep threat type receiver. But you are right in the sense that he probably isn't a slot guy either. But even guys like Dez and Calvin Johnson line up in the slot position at times. Nothing wrong with a bigger, strong guy running from there

ETA- he is ready to step on the field and contribute immediately imo

DK Metcalf is not as good as Brown but has the size and ability to become very good one day... Hate he will be at Ole Miss

Really enjoyed watching two D-1 guys go head to head with each other tonight when Oxford put Metcalf at corner to cover Brown...

And for the fellas talking about Newton County, I was at the game tonight.... Won big but the coaching is pitiful.... Got some talent at spots but the play calling is miserable and they do not spell any of the starters so at halftime they are gassed.... we were up 35-7 in the 3rd quarter and had already had multiple injuries but every starter was still in the game... They don't get the concept of "fresh legs" or depth... Hope they can get it together and have a good year

I definitely don't see that comparison.

Dez Bryant is listed 6'2 220, AJ is listed 6'1 220. Dez has a broad frame & plays much bigger than his ht/wt. I think the comparison being made to AJ is based on the physicality they play with, which certainly translates to the next level, even if his current size advantage doesn't.

That could be an advantage to get him to commit or they could be using him to get the others to commit.

And Dez does line up at the slot some too. Look I'm not saying he is a slot receiver. But he has great hands. I just don't see him stretching the field. That's all. Kid is physical, no doubt. Ready to play immediately. We need him

Bigger than Cooper at Bama.

He looks so much like Treadwell, almost a clone. Same size and body type, they both move the same, not explosive but smooth. Same big hands. Not nearly as polished but he'll get that later. Wearing 1 probably makes them look even more the same, though.
This is a very important recruit, we need to go all out to get him. Don't want to lose a Starkville guy who is this good. I can see him getting a 5th star on at least one or two services.

Lets just all agree that he is a helluva player

Either you have never seen Aj or you have never seen bumphis play, or you know nothing about football if you compare Aj to bump. There is not one single thing that makes them comparable......ok, one, they are both African American....sorry, two, they both play in Mississippi. Other than that....you lost me
