Unlike the other players examined in this series, Downs is young enough that his best football could still be ahead of him. At 25, he could realistically provide another five or six productive seasons, particularly given that his style of play relies heavily on route running, quickness and understanding defensive coverages rather than simply overpowering opponents.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Downs' route-running and coverage skills project five to six more productive seasons ahead.

Unlike the other players examined in this series, Downs is young enough that his best football could still be ahead of him. At 25, he could realistically provide another five or six productive seasons, particularly given that his style of play relies heavily on route running, quickness and understanding defensive coverages rather than simply overpowering opponents. Those are qualities that can remain effective as receivers approach their late 20s and early 30s, giving an acquiring team some confidence in his longevity.
