For those who don't know him here's a couple of draft profiles on him:

https://fullpresscoverage.com/2018/02/27...d-j-chark/

https://www.bigblueview.com/2018/3/8/170...-ny-giants

He's 21 (22 this year), at the combine he measured 6'3 - 199 lbs.

He had a great combine with a 4.34 on the 40 yards and a 40 inches vertical jump, 129 inches broad jump.

After watching more of him he doesn't seem like a finished product, he can improve route running and doesn't really uses his height/jumping ability as well as he should. He's more of a body catcher and could improve his hands. He will have to improve against press coverage.
On the other hand he's really fast and electric with the ball in his hands, with his speed and his agility he's a great in the open field and his perfect for a team that relies on play action and takes deep shot (at Senior Bowl he caught 2-3 deep throws by White and I think Lauletta). He's tall and if he can start using his leaping abiity to his advantage he could be a good replacement for ARob (same height, same vertical jump, different skills in high-pointing the ball at the moment).

At 29 it's probably too early to draft him, I don't think he will be there at 61 though but if he was I'd definitely start to consider him. What anyone thinks about him?

I haven't watched too much so more opinions would be really welcome :

A bit of a self-applause here with this bump ( Big Grin

) but man the guy has really worked on his hands and his body control since I opened this. He's catching pretty much everything thrown in his way. Keep it up DJ!
Marrone was raving about him before the injury last year and all the good things that were said about him during the offseason are starting to show on the field, he really worked hard to reach this level of improvement.
