Allen Hurns comparison?

I don't see the Muhammad or Boldin comparison; they had / have more physicality to their game than Hurns does. Honestly, he reminds me of Marvin Harrison in that his precision and body control helps him separate from the Defender rather than his speed. Neither of them are burners, but they do have enough speed to pull away.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.
Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say! Quote:Just watching the Jaguars so long he reminds of McCardell, I don't how their measurables stack up I'm just saying the way he lays out for the pass and doesn't worry about the hit, the way he gets YAC I watch him and he reminds me of how McCardell used to play in his prime. Keenan listed at 6'1 191. Hurns is 6'1 198 (combine height/weight) We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Marvin Harrison was lighter and didn't play with reckless abandon, I don't think I've ever seen him break a tackle and even seen Harrison willing go down 2 yards before the sticks on a game needing 3rd and 10. His speed was Elite too running a 4.38 40 time. I don't know what Marvin Harrison you were watching but they play the position completely different.
Go Jags!
*To stay up for atleast 2 years 3/6/17 2016 draft players I think will be good
He reminds me of Art Monk.

Quote:To be honest I don't think there's any comparison for Hurns that does him justice. That's why I brought this to you guys. Some guy on the Rotoworld forum's said he might light up Atlanta because... and I quote.... "he is a similar WR to Ginn" who just let lit up Atlanta. I couldn't think of a comparison for Hurns, but it sure as heck isn't Tedd Ginn lol. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Not sure why the OP is chastised for wanting a comparison. Doesn't seem like that egregious of a notion imo.

Quote:I disagree, but that's fine. I mean they both seem to get open. But Marvin was nowhere near as physical a player and Hurns is nowhere near the speed demon Marvin was, both are very crafty route runners though.

I do agree about Harrison being non-physical, but the craftiness that both of them have is what I base mine on. Their numbers might be different, but I feel like the style is very similar.

Their numbers might be different, but I feel like the style is very similar.the route running comparison I certainly see I like what Hurns does after the catch more and thats where I see a young Anquan Boldin. I think the biggest difference I see between him and Marvin is Marvin could beat you with speed or precision and I think Hurns only really beats you with precision consistently than breaks you with physicality. I guess the main reason I hate the comparison is I hated the way Harrison played football and avoided contact and got soft at times. I don't see that in Hurns game at all.
Go Jags!

Quote:I keep thinking of Rod Smith only because he was undrafted and had a great career.good knowledge of Broncos history. Are you a Broncos fan by any chance?
