CFZ If You Don't Think Deuce Vaughn Can Play WR, Look at His Highlights

[Mac_MaloneV1]

That's not my job. You are the one asking for a video not me. There are some over at the Draft Zone also. Put in some time and go find some. Geez you remind me of my lazy neighbors kid who won't even walk down the driveway to get the mail so his mom won't have to.

Something something burden of proof.

I have looked, they don't exist. Every single rep of him split out is motioned out of the backfield to be matched up on a LB or to fill an empty hole in a zone. There are 0 clips of him being lined up in the slot and matched with a corner that I could find.

If they're so easy to find, you could have saved the 3 posts and put up a clip, instead of being snarky.

This kid's biggest challenge will be the weakness at our QB position.

 

[Pass2Run]

I probably should clarify for some...like a little bit of slot, and out of the backfield in WCO.

 

[Mr_437]

Deuce is a weapon. It's on the coaches to find a way to use him properly. The Cowboys needed juice on offense, so I'm glad they drafted a Playmaker to go along with the addition of Cooks at WR.

Good luck putting him in as a slot receiver and having Dak throw to a 5'5 receiver down field. Deuce better run routes like Jerry Rice and Dak better have the accuracy of Tom Brady.
I'm excited by what he can bring to the offense, but small size doesn't often translate to the NFL field. Besides, did you see those holes he was running through in college? Did any of Kansas' offensive linemen get drafted in the first four rounds this year or last?

Philly place Darren Sproles in the slot several time with Carlson Wentz at QB.

We cannot thinking this is Cole Beasley full time slot.

He can make the team, as full fledged WR nope, he is more a slot WR and while he has deep speed he is not a deep threat and there is nothing wrong with that but youhave to game plan him to catch in space using rubs/"picks" to get him clean at the catch so he can use his speed and quickness for YAC in the open field. If they do not do that he will be wasted like Tavon Austin was wasted.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

More suited to run between the tackles how? Being 5’6” 176?

Big lineman can;t bend over low enough to tackle him?

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Become a big Deuce fan....not just cuz he's from Round Rock...up the road from Austin.; but because he has never let his size limit to what he can do. I mean he played against Div 1 teams, 37 games in all and piled up 3,604 yards rushing with 34 TDs...
5.5 career average. That's a lot of gimmick stuff i do say.
Now this title on the thread I do disagree that he is not a standard WR... should be just pass catching out of the backfield, in the slot on a crossing pattern or screen. Regular passes thrown to backs. No backs run deep routes or deep posts. And certainly not even Zeke the Great did that in his prime. The premise should be that he is a great receiving back as well. As long as scatter arm Dak can get it to him.

Big lineman can;t bend over low enough to tackle him?

Yeah ok.

 

[Arkyvarminter]

I remember the hype of "It is Turpintime!"
Fellow did quite the disappearing trick.

yeah, he disappeared into the pro bowl..lol

 

[Arkyvarminter]

He is not making the roster man. The guy is literally 5’4. Put it like this Danny Devito is 5’2.

wrong

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

I think slot is definitely something he can do. It's also a way to keep him on the field on 3rd downs. His lack of size will likely keep him out of the backfield because of blocking.

You don't have to use a back for 6 man protections. Given how we have played offense the last 15 years it may not seem like it but it is possible.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

He is not making the roster man. The guy is literally 5’4. Put it like this Danny Devito is 5’2.

And if he was a 120 lbs stick man you would have a point. 190 lbs at that height is remarkable.
