Detroit Lions draft preview WR Quinton Patton


Broke down some film (Utah State, Illinois, Texas A&M) plus Senior Bowl work on La Tech WR Quinton Patton. I like this guy, a perfect # 2 WR in the league.


Strengths: Runs good routes and knows how to get open. Excellent in the red zone. Will break tackles on the hitch route. Stronger than he looks and a handful in man coverage. Beat up on Utah State's Will Davis and Illinois CB Terry Hawthorne.

Weaknesses: Not a burner but plays faster than he times 4.53 at the combine.

Bottom Line: # 2 NFL receiver who will suprise with play making ability. His value is in the mid 2nd round. 6.8 rookie starter.
