    Good for him...

    He can still change his mind I think as long as he doesn't sign with an agent. It might be wise for him to hold up on that. The bowl game showed he has some skills still to develop, because the NFL is a tough place for body catchers.

    He was never going to replicate the numbers he put up this season next season. This is his best shot. Glad to see him go. Herbert will greatly miss him.

    I get the kid wants to make his money. But how much does a 5th round pick actually make?

    Yeah, he won't be the only target next year, but if he starts catching with his hands and drops fewer balls, I don't see how that doesn't help his draft profile. There might be a few GM's that look primarily at stats, but most NFL teams are pretty astute when it comes to understanding a player's skill set. Dillon's size and speed has him as a possession receiver in the NFL. How can you be a good possession receiver if you drop 30% of the passes thrown your way? If you're 6'4" and have 4.4 speed, you can drop a shit ton of passes and still get paid. Not when you're 6'1" and closer to 4.55 speed.
