Ross obviously has better top end speed, but it's not like Erickson is slow. Erickson is 6'0", btw, which is far from small. Statements like this make it seem like you are just jock riding Core and really don't have a clue about what Erickson brings to the table. Erickson is a better slot guy, but 6'0" and 4.44 in the 40 is big and fast enough to play outside if needed. Malone is a bad route runner, fyi. The only thing he is remotely similar in is speed. Finally, if I was targeting Ross in the draft, it would make sense to put up a smokescreen by talking up my current WR'S.5"11/6'0 for WR is "small". Their tape is nothing alike Erickson is a 4.52 guy by the way not a 4.44 guy. Erickson isn't getting separation on the outside and isn't scaring anyone over top. Saying Alex Erickson is anything like john Ross is laughable and I preferred the other two WRs to Ross haha. Erickson will be another over hyped slot guy, which makes your jock riding comment funny because that's what your doing to an UDFA slot guy.
Fun fact, Core and Wright both had twice as many receptions last year than the "All-star" Alex Erickson.
