Two Georgia Tech Receivers Were Drafted in 2015… The Triple Option Offense Continues to Produce Great Receivers
May 2, 2015
Wow, the Triple Option Offense is debunking all the 50-year old myths…
The Baltimore Ravens draft Darren Waller, a 6-6, 240 pound Receiver from Georgia Tech.
Yet another Georgia Tech receiver with great length. Plays to his height. Gathers himself and boxes out defenders on fades and jump balls. Uses long arms and gets on his ladder to sky over cornerbacks and high point throws. Effortless strider with untapped vertical speed to go yard. Plus body control. Usually gets two feet in bounds on sideline throws. Plucks the ball with extended hands. Doesn’t fear hits from safeties. Almost impossible to guard on back-shoulder throws. Confident and competitive when the ball is in the air.
He is a late bloomer who is faster than quick and has coveted size-speed combination. Waller isn’t just a tall receiver, he has legitimate hands and body control and can impose his size on mismatched cornerbacks. Waller has a low floor, but with a little more competitive fire and technique work, he could become a legitimate touchdown maker in the league.
Now he’s a Baltimore Raven…
