Stribling is elite at the back shoulder catches, at least in college he was. It's all over his highlights, the exact play he made in preseason.

Still reminds me of Hakeem Nicks

Hakeem was a little shorter, a little heavier, and ran a 4.63 40. He did have longer arms and even bigger hands than Stribling though.

100% legit #1 WR in the making. In 2 years he will be our best WR and Evans will be number 2.

Agreed! Hopefully he can soak up knowledge from Evans before he retires

Stribling looks f**king sweet, but I'm surprised by the issues he's had blocking. Most of them seem to be mental mistakes moreso than physical issues, but he's had one or two of those as well.

Hopefully just a lot for a young guy to process re: Kyle's offense

I wish we gave him another drive or two. Too many mistakes in run blocking and too many drops. Someone with his size and strength should not be a liability in the run game.

I agree though, Martinez is unwatchable

Blocking at this level requires a lot of technique. Everyone's strong and fast. I think he will get better.

this dude is awesome. He dropped that would be touchdown but it's all good. First time I've seen him drop a pass.

dude is going to be a bonafide bad mofo
