He has all the traits to be a really good NFL receiver. Really like the pick in the sixth round. 

Watching the ball eat him up against Ohio State was painful to watch. The production should have been so much better, but he was also part of a Michigan dumpster fire. 

Not much not to like about this pick in the sixth round.

DPJ's quality has to be understood through one lens alone; that is, he's a BIG SLOT match-up upside nightmare.

He's CHEEK cheeks as an outside WR not able to get separation quickly nor able to respond physically off the line to beat press.

He's a special weapon as a slot-exclusive player who can get free in zone for big 3rd down games and can win one on ones.

He can also be a very good redzone threat.

His concerns are toughness and mentality and I'm surprised the Browns took a swing on him given what some coaches at Michigan did to in effect trash his draft stock in the mind's of NFL teams by making note of serious mental toughness and love for the game question marks.

At this point in the draft though and as long as the Browns have a plan for his success off the field and on the field as a slot WR, DPJ is a great pick.

He can't win on the outside man. He runs slow build up routes; he's a sloth within the first 15 yards then he clicks into another gear.

With a big body, big catch radius, combat catch abiltiy, and the ability to go up for a ball put over a LB or Nickel Player in the middle of the field he's going to thrive with all the extra space in the slot to work with. Also has upside as a slot vertical route player. If he gets pressed by a nickel in the slot it's a free 1st down at the sticks. We want him in the slot and in the slot alone he can star.

That vert jump is for redzone winning and to go up and combat catch over the middle from the slot.

 

DPJ exactly the type of BOOM with a specific set of skills 6th round pick you want to bet on.

Really nice 3rd day of the draft by Berry and co.
