I've said it for years. He's a really, really good player. He has it all except straight line speed. But everything else. From height, weight, reach, length, great routes, excellent hands, will muscle the ball away from defenders, will bulldoze as a blocker, even jump on the loose ball fumble. Just a great player except straight line speed. But he's of the Anquan Boldin mold. All other aspects of the game he has to a high degree.
Numbers were good but he dropped a lot of passes today. Boldin also had incredible YAC as a WR that Juan doesn't.
Jennings gets lots of YAC in games. Mostly bulldozing his way. The few drops were really, really tough catches that he was reaching out for or diving for. I'd put most of those at less than 50% chance of completion. They may go down as drops in the stat sheet. But I don't think many of those were gimmies. In fact they would be incredible if he made some of those.
