Brandon Lafell

Pros

Cons

Overall

Brandon LaFell is a possession receiver with good size, and is a big target than all QB's love to have. While he isn't the fastest guy around, but he is a good route runner, and finds a way to get open. Is a good red zone receiver too, his height, leaping ability, and body control allow him to go up and win most jump balls over defenders. Is a very physical receiver, who is tough to tackle and will manhandle defensive backs at the line of scrimmage. He does have a sizeable downside though, as mentioned is is not fast, and won't be able to beat a corner 1-on-1 in a footrace, he drops way too many passes, and doesn't always give 100%. Was a very productive player in college and should settle into a nice role as a #2 possession receiver, and should get picked in the late 2nd to early 3rd round.
