Lane- is more similar to braylon edwards (6'3 207) they are both lean guys who can stretch the field, go up and get it, and have good agility for taller wr. Dixon- i have to say roddy white (6'0 205) both have strong upper bodies and have speed to strecth field. Rudolph- i'm going with victor cruz (6'0 200) both have similar builds and are best with ball in their hands(yac) and have speed to get down field i think rudolph will probably be best in slot but can also play outside see cruz comparison.

I think Physicality wise Edwards matches up with Lane but in terms of hands there isn't even a debate. Lane hands are perfect while Edwards led the league in drops at one point. White with Dixon I could see the similarities physically, but game style I don't think White could play the slot like Dixon could.

Julio Jones was one of the biggest freak athletes out of hs since Sean Taylor. I would compare Lane to a Dwayne Bowe both ran about a 4.5 and could really stretch the field imo..

Lane for some reason reminds me of Sidney Rice.... Both are BEAST on that 9 route, and both have stick um hands.

Julio Jones is Andre Johnson -lite...dude physically is/was a freak from high school. Lane is more smoother than him...not as physical.

Johnnie Dixon i didnt even have to leave Palm Beach for that comparison....he is a more put together Santonio Holmes. [video=youtube;uVPYpxzIgOQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVPYpxzIgOQ[/video]
 
Dre Johnson was the biggest "freak" of an athlete at WR that we've ever had, IMHO. First time I met him was after the F$U game in 2001 season. Kid looked like a **** LB, by the size of his arms. AND Dre was fast as ****, also. Anybody that says different, never seen Dre up close and/or shook his hand.

Streeter ran 2/10ths seconds faster than Taylor in the 40 while being 3 inches taller

Oh...nevermind. Cross Sean Taylor off this list then. I forgot that height and 40 time were the only requirements of being a physical freak. Silly of me to think that strength numbers, quickness, hips, instincts, etc come into play.

So the biggest freak every to play at UM is struggling to find a role in the NFL right now. Got ya...and makes sense.
















Do I need to add that special sarcasm font that someone was talking about to this post?

Julio jones is faster than lane, also a better route runner. And I have seen him take screen passes the distance
