1. Does he have untapped potential?

2. What player would you compare his Speed to in the NFL (just in general)?

3. Has he done a decent job in one on one coverage on the outside?

4. What kind of WR is he? a possession guy? a Speed guy?...what receiver style best fit him if you were to describe him?

5. Is he a good blocker and route runner or atleast decent at it?

6. Amazing catching ability or just ok?

7. Last....Do you think he is capable of getting atleast 800 yards and 7 TDs as our number 2 WR?


I appreciate your time! Its hard to really know what we are getting as there isn't a ton of tape on the guy and it doesn't seem like he got a ton of opportunity here judging by the stats. Anyways Im hoping Sanu does well as he will have plenty of opportunities when defenses double Julio, so I was just trying to get a feel on what kind of WR we have in Sanu since most are saying we overpaid for his services.

1. He's a low ceiling guy thanks to his lack of speed/athleticism, but he has the potential to be an "ok" #2 WR.

2. Anquan Boldin maybe? He's not going to beat CBs deep very often unless there's a mistake in coverage. 

3. We threw him a ton of swing passes to the outside. This gave him opportunities for YAC, which he's pretty good at. He doesn't really get good separation often. He can leap and fight for the ball with his size a bit.

4. Most definitely a possession guy.

5. I'd say he's a willing blocker and solid route runner. I don't recall Dalton throwing any INT's where it was obvious Sanu ran a bad route.

6. He nearly led the league in drops in 2014. That was the only year he had a big opportunity and he literally dropped it. He did produce (for half a season), but when AJ got healthy, Sanu resumed his disappearing act.

7. Maybe. I think he can get 800 yards in a high volume attack where he's a #2 target. That said, he's going to drop some passes and don't look for him to stretch the D. Of course, you have Julio for that though.
