I know this is a bold statement but I am really starting think this could be the direction he is heading. I know we have had some greats, particularly Yeast, Johnson, Burton, Cobb, Matthews, etc, but Juice seems to be doing so much more at such a young point in his career. Obviously, Cobb is one of, if not the greatest player to ever wear the blue and white, but when it comes to being a pure wide receiver, Juice is making a strong case for himself. He has sure hands, deceptive strength despite his stature, great route running ability, and speed like we've not seen in a while.
In fact, I think it's scary at our potential at wide receiver. Bone, has became a pretty reliable possession receiver that will just get better. Baker has had a few drops, but has often stepped up and made plays when we need them most. Again, he will just get better and better. It doesn't hurt that he has the body of a pro already. The two that really stand out are Badet and Juice though. I know that no WR makes every catch and often times the QB misses them, but I cannot recall those two guys not having at least a step on their defenders. It amazes me at how fast that they can get separation.
