How is it that at a position that looked like it was going to be the weakest on the team they are getting the most production from one of the players. The season won't finish this way but right now Donnell is on pace for 96 rec for 1,096 yards 8 tds. He has looked pretty good so far.
Glad we have a young guy to develop. We will likely struggle this year with all these new faces; the new offensive system and so forth but we MUST have strong youth to build around and at least Donnell seems like he is one to build around.
This. I've been impressed with his ability/toughness to go get the f'n ball
I think I just pooped my pants trying to process that one.
And making every play that comes his way.
I'd rather see Donnell catch the ball than Cruz drop the ball in a key situation.
Not sure what else you can ask for. He's doing exactly what's needed. He makes first downs and bails out his QB.
Hey, Fells made a nifty 1 yard catch too!
All in all I'm glad we have another Boss/Ballard type guy.
Here's hoping Donnell continues to develop. He has a long way to go as a blocker, but so did Boss and Ballard when they first broke into the lineup. If Donnell stays healthy, he certainly has the body to round out his game.
But that said, he has been a positive and pleasant surprise in receptions.
Surprisingly, yes he is.
