that is if they get the chance.
I dont think they get that chance but we can only hope can't we. But more than likely he is gone before the Eagles pick. I hope he checks out physically and the rest of the league sleeps on him.
Lee caught 118 passes for 1,721 yards and 14 touchdowns and won the Biletnikoff Award in 2012. Last season suffered with piss poor Quaterbacks after Barkley left. and Coaching changes and nagging knee injury. If he is there at 22 its a no brainer if he checks out physically.
From what Ive read Lee has the what it takes to be ProBowl player His game speed is outstanding ( maybe not sprinter speed combine 40 was 4.52) go research some of the top nfl wrs including Jerry Rice and what their 40 times were.
He has great quicks and burst as seen in the combine work out making him dangerous in space, perfect for this offense. His ability to climb the ladder at the point of the ball is outstanding. He from what ive read ranks high in all these these key areas, attacking the football, body control, catch radius and proper hands technique, his route running is very good, his work ethic outstanding.
Only thing Ive read that might be a concern is the knee and concern for other injuries. AT times it seems he also relies on his physical skills and freelancing to much, good coaching can fix that.
About the almighty 40 speed I will quote Bill Walsh on the subject
"Pure speed is helpful, but full-stride speed becomes important. You would like a receiver with the ball in the open field to be able to keep the separation with the closing defenders until he gets over the goal line. He doesn't have to outrun them. He doesn't have to gain ground on them. He just has to get there before they do so he scores. So it doesn't have to be sprinters' speed, but full-stride speed.A good example of that was Mike Quick when he was at Philadelphia. He had just an average 40 time, but once in the open field the long strides gave him the functional speed to stay away or get away from defenders. Dwight Clark, believe it or not, was never caught from behind once he got into full stride. Now he used the field to weave and bend, but he was never caught. And Jerry Rice will never be caught from behind by anyone if they both have the same, basic starting point.""Now there have been other people who have been Olympic sprinters who get tangled up and can't get back into full stride quickly enough and somebody just comes up and overwhelms them from out of nowhere. If they catch the ball and there is any contact at all, by the time they get back in running stride, the people have closed on them. Full-stride speed is the key."

from the article below quote "Wide receivers, offensive linemen and defensive backs seem to be his strengths as an evaluator. He has hit on multiple receivers each year and has made some pretty impressive calls when it comes to safeties and cornerbacks. That's no surprise, given that Mayock used to be a defensive back."

good Jets article on wr http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/201...rqise_lee.html
There are some on this last list that will fall to 3rd and 4th round that might end up being special players also Maybe Eagles go that route
Its a good over all read on all the Wrs in the draft - notice where Lee is
http://www.fieldgulls.com/2014/3/17/...each-their-own
Final thought on Lee 2012 and those huge numbers stability at coach and Barkley at qb --Following year nagging injury - shit qb play and different coaching
Would Watkins or Evans or others had big years with all that going on? I dont think so.
