I had never heard of him until Bucky Brooks rated him 5th among WRs a couple of months back, citing his ability to get deep.  I was skeptical, but when I saw clips, his play reminded me of Jimmy Smith.

Since then, I have been hoping against hope we could land him in the 3rd, but as it's going now, I could see him going mid 2nd round.  If anyone gets him in the 3rd, they will have a big time steal.

I like the Jimmy Smith comparison. Jimmy had a great knack of getting open on the deep balls from Brunell. As great as Fred Taylor and Boselli were during their careers in Jacksonville, I'd still take Jimmy in his prime. Let's hope that he makes it to round 3 and the Jags snag him.

As for taking Jimmy Smith ver FT or Boselli in their primes? 

I dunno.  It would be very tough for me to decide between the three of them.  All three were outstanding.

If he made it to round 3, whether I took him or not might depend on what we did in the draft before then.  If somehow we took a receiver earlier, I am not sure if I would double down at the position, especially with two of our top 5 picks, especially if needs like T are not addressed.
