I remember a few years ago I was also very high on a 2nd round WR with great athletic ability and talent.

Unfortunately, he was unable to utilize those skills at the NFL level.
Are you talking about Chad Jackson or am I forgetting another WR bust more recently? Jackson didn't have near the measurables and athleticism of Hill. He produced more but Fla wrs always do.

You're right though, Hill has a lot to prove in Sept. Can't blame us for being excited though, he could be a huge difference maker for an offense that is outright desperate for guys who make home run plays.
