Hill is a high reward, high bust pick.
Aren't most if not every player in the 1st round the same.

Hill has what, 49 catches 9 TDs in 3 years there....
I'll take a touchdown for every 5 catches any day

I'll take almost 30 yards a catch any day too.

plus, given the recent success of Calvin Johnson and Demetrius Thomas, it bodes well for him.

They didn't pass much at G-Tech.
Check his drops
He had a lot of drops?
He has hand issues like Williamson. Insanely fast and athletic but as a receiver hes trash. For every reception he has 2 drops.

Source?
I read that dropped 5 passes last season. 2 of them were key plays which leave a bitter taste in people's minds...which gives reps that may not always be true...

Yup, just ask Vernon about those stones he called hands in the beginning of his career. Now look at him! "CLUTCH!!!" *fist pumps*

But he only averages that at 3 TDs a year... Against college players...

Huh? He had less than half the production of these guys; hell, less than 1/3 of Calvin's... How does that bode well for him?

I'll support Hill if he's the pick; only because of the faith I have in our FO. They've got to know more about him than I do...
