I didn't think Reed was that much bigger and faster than Everett.
I heard it the entire draft process and never understood it. "The next Reed" and then some freakish athlete used as a comparison. Reed isn't freakish athletically so saying Everett moves better isn't a surprise. Is he as tough over the middle? As precise in his routes? As physical in contested catch situations?
Not apples to apples because Reed didn't do as much
