Alot of people compared him directly to Mike Williams. They are both BIG, GIFTED receivers but some question Jarrett's work ethic. Like Williams in College they ran crappy routes and then used their superior athletic ability to outjump corners

read somewhere that Jarrett has problems getting off LOS vs quick corners.

He ran a 4.6 at the combine, which meant that most of the LB's being tested were smoking him!

you must not watch much college fb, calande.
jarrett reminds (me) of Mike Williams (of USC)...Jarrett had been making highlight reels for three years at USC. I understand that his stock drops like every other player (needs, value, market value)....but Dwayne specifically because of his perceived immaturity and self-centered approach to the game.

Here is a question. If you have Jarrett on your high school team, do you still run the Double Wing???

Is this a legitimate question about selections or just trying to help draft for fantasy football?

Kid was a human highlight film all year...and the Michigan game...wow...haven't been many big-time bowl game performances like that by a receiver. Maybe Keyshawn his senior year against Northwestern...but not many more.
I'm not sure that the kid's stock has "fallen" recently...during the season, many people had questions about his maturity and readiness to play in the NFL. In fact, I think the consensus among many of the talking heads was that he probably needed 1 more year of college ball to really turn the heads of the pro scouts.

I understand the comparisons between him and Mike Williams, but I'm thinking that year off hurt Williams a lot more than people would have guessed.

I think he is a good player and fits a role on a team, good WR not a lot of flash as far as speed.

WR is a tough position to draft in the pro's...
Many times its a non-descript kid that becomes the phenomenal WR... and most big name WR's out of college, never get it done...
Similar to drafting a Power Forward in the NBA... they are usually luck of the draws, more so than lottery picks...
With that being said... I wouldn't spend a high draft pick on a WR...

I like Dwayne Jarrett, but the best part of him being drafted was listening to Keyshawn Johnson gush over him for 15 minutes the day he was drafted....only to have Jarrett be the one REPLACING Keyshawn....man, that's gotta hurt.

Speaking of Mike Williams, if you aren't disciplined enough not to eat yourself out of a job, how disciplined are you?
