Just watched the Hudl film on Saturday's visitor, Cameron O'Neil. I don't want to set this young man up for failure by raising the bar too high, but he looks an awful lot like Tyler Boyd in the way he catches the ball and moves his body after the catch. Does anyone else agree?
 
Agreed. Cameron looks bigger than TB maybe not as explosive but he does look a lot like him.

Explosive athleticism was never in Boyd's repertoire.

Boyd had fantastic body awareness and knew how to beat the defender to the ball, but it was rare to see him run away from anyone. That said, if O'Neil is half the player Boyd is, I'd love to see him at PITT.
 
"Cameron looks bigger than TB maybe not as explosive but he does look a lot like him."

Saying one is more explosive isn't a declaration that the other has "explosive athleticism". Reading is fundamental.
