Great article!
Evaluating Hill's game tape, I see a big, physical receiver with exceptional speed and quickness. He excels at running the vertical portion of the route tree (go route, post and deep cross) and his ability to run past defenders is accentuated by the deception of the Yellow Jackets' triple-option offense. As a pass catcher, Hill shows strong hands and gives the quarterback a huge target with his enormous catching radius (33 3/8-inch arms and a 79 1/2-inch wingspan). He has a penchant for coming down with acrobatic catches in a crowd, and his ability to win contested balls makes him a dangerous weapon in the red zone.
He can be just like Aldon, a secondary threat who plays on limited snaps, but makes a hella of an impact. We would use him the same way GT used him and it would acclimate him to the game easier.
I am really starting to like this kid more and more from what I've read and seen so far. Will he get passed Houston and NE is STILL the ?

I'd be willing to give up our 1st and 4th to move up and snag him.

I'm hoping that Alshon Jeffery surprises people with an excellent Pro Day. If that was the case, Hill could be available for us, or Jeffery.

Hill is my draft crush this year. I want him on this roster so bad. He has the potential to become an elite number 1 and he gives something Alex has never had at wr, size.

This!
I'm like you SF, Jeffery or Hll at #30 with Fleener being another candidate. To be honest, I am starting to feel real good about our chances at #30.
And at Hill's Pro Day...

Stephen Hill caught all 12 passes thrown to him by QB Eric Ward at Georgia Tech's Pro Day.
He caught all the passes, yippppppeeee! K, now. How about some info on his route running?

Hill, Fleener, or Jeffery (if he performs well at his pro day)
It's good to hear about Hill catching the passes, but I'm more interested to hear about what routes he ran.

I am all for trading for any guy we want. Last year didn't we have like 11 picks to package together though...
