Yeah, just judging from that one video of the Connecticut game (which is probably an unfair judgement) he looked slow, not quick, had some drops... granted the QB play wasn't the best but he didn't look that good. Even on the returns.... if you are taking RB/WR/Return Specialist Harvin looked a heck of a lot quicker and faster than him. Granted Harvin is a lot smaller but he doesn't look like he has the speed or quickness to return in the NFL... looks like he would have to rely on his body at WR.
If the highlights of the Connecticut game were an illustration of Sanu's abilities then I would let him pass and hope someone else takes him to drive another good player to us.

Didn't want. Still don't want. Regardless of 40 time.

yup

Fleener has 4 for inches of height, probably 3 or 4 inches in wingspan, probably the same speed maybe a little faster.

Why would we draft a WR who is slower then most TEs nowadays? If we draft Sanu in the 1st or 2nd I will be severely disappointed.

Helloooooo in here! The Sanu bandwagon is pretty empty now. I never was a big fan of Sanu in the first place.

I think Fleener is going to run 4.7 or 4.8.

on tape he outruns safeties and had them playing deeper then you'd expect but either way a 4.75 250pound 6-6 (probably 34 inch arm maybe longer) TE is your choice against a 4.67 6-2 210pound 33 inch arm WR you would be better served taking the TE.

I wonder if Sanu lost a lot of money today or was just over-hyped going in. Either way I'd be shocked if he went first round after today.

overhyped - the 115 catches is what blew people away but his yardage total was only 1100 - 10 yards per catch average isnt that great. Everyone knew he didn't get separation but his massive hands saved him over and over.
