Hill is only good after the play breaks down, Mahomey only adds to that.

Any other team he would just be a fast special team player.

Very few of the best WR’s in the history of the game were burners. Most great WR’s are technicians that run great routes to get open. There are loads of burners that were busts because all they had was speed. See Al Davis and the Raiders. In reality quickness is as important as speed. That’s what truly makes Hill so dangerous is his quickness, His speed helps him run away from people but his quickness gets him away in the first place.

You can cover elite speed by bracketing coverage, rolling a safety over top or with an elite CB. Obviously the first two open up other options.

From an era 30 years ago where they were the only target. It also doesn’t change the fact the more speedy WRs are successful than non speedy ones.

Jerry Rice was not the only target (John Taylor, Dwight Clark, Roger Craig, Tim Brown .. ), and this comment doesn't make sense anyway because if he was the only receiver he would have had a harder time with double and triple teams.

And it is not accurate that ultra fast guys like Hill are more successful that receivers with more average speed.

there is a lot of players with speed....you need receiving ability...Williams had 4.3 speed. zero hands. zero route running ability. he sucked. we had a guy who ran a 4.19, can't recall his name. but his only game was straight ahead go route.....Hill has speed. but he is also a good WR, with good route running and good hands...that's the killer combination....

You should learn about Cowboys history instead of being a Mahomes homer.

The slowest man in the history of the NFL made a career catching balls at tortoise like pace. His name was Jason Witten.

I don’t really get the comparison, but at this point I’d take Hill over CeeDee. He’s a proven commodity, and a very talented one.

I feel like it’s easier to scheme for a fast player than it is to scheme for someone who has elite route running ability and knowledge of reading a defense. Eventually with age, that speed will fade, where someone like Larry Fitzgerald still finds ways to keep playing. Not that it matters, Ceedee hasn’t played a down in the nfl. It’s silly to try and compare them at this point imo

What in his post indicated he was a Mahomes homer? As for Cowboy history, Bob Hayes retired 45 years ago, and earlier in this thread you were downplaying Rice and Carter by saying they played in a bygone era, and one retired 16 years ago, and the other 18 years ago.

You're talking to an irrational human being. Like the one you had a tête-à-tête with earlier in another thread.

Pathetic analysis.

I'll grant you that one, but it doesn't actually help your point because Tavon had the speed, but not the overall skills. The overall skills is what makes Hill the better player.

I'm sick - I think everyone has the capacity for reason despite repeated evidence to the contrary.

Oh, you meant to scheme against a fast player, right?
