Assessment

Catching: Butler has a nice pair of hands. Makes circus catches look easy. Length allows his catch radius to be tremendous. Struggles to consistently catch the gimmes. Struggles with drops. 19/28.
Route Running: Good route runner in general. Has a good release because of the technique he uses to get around players when pressed. Not tight with his cuts, should work on being more consistent. 15/18.
Size/Speed: Excellent size and good speed. Lacks the acceleration. Takes a few steps to get up to full speed. Size is incredible. Uses his size to his advantage often. 17/18.
Physicality: Extremely physical after the catch, should really use his physicality better before. Tough to bring down in the open field, fights for yards. 11/12.
Body Control: Excellent body control. Knows where his feet are at all times. Shows NFL type body control, usually gets both feet down. Very fluid while running with the football. 9/10.
Blocking: Inconsistent as a blocker. Sometimes he will obliterate a defensive back, other times he will whiff and miss him completely. When he gets his hands on someone, he can lock down a perimeter. 6/8.
Leadership/Attitude: Good attitude. Not a leader which is fine, but forgets about his drops (sometimes too much). ⅚.
Overall: Hakeem Butler has massive upside to be a very talented receiver. Provided that he can improve his route running and size up on some of his drop issues, Butler could potentially grow into a top #1 receiver talent. 82/100.
Personality Assessment:
Super likable guy. Mature. Presents himself very well. No off of the field red flags. Shouldn’t have any issues in an NFL locker room. (+3).
Stats:
