Pickens was as talented as any elite player in his era.
Good golly Johnny Majors moved him from defensive back to WR I think his sophmore
Season at UT. He was all SEC or made the all freshmen team his freshman year.
Dale Carter was in that secondary.
Pickens was 6'2 but played like he was 6'8. World class sprinter speed
He played in time when CBers were allowed to get handsey and physical.
At times he could take over a game and he had a special ability to find the endzone
Teams knew him Scott or McGee were the only weapons on.offense.
The Bengals lacked that bellcow RB to keep.defenses honest.
He was a HOF talent
