I know it was touched on in Cortez Johnson's thread but I thought Saunders deserved his own thread.

As per thread title, Saunders is an All-Wac and Biletnikoff Watch List WR. His 21.4 YPC average was second highest in the nation.

For More stats: http://www.gobulldogs.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/saunders_jalen00.html

Undersized at 5'9" 160 (the most generous listing I've found for him), but fast often getting behind coverages and displaying a second gear, especially when running the reverse. You can see some of it in his video:

He also started at QB in high school, providing another interesting "razzle dazzle" option for OU's offensive attack should Heupel wish to make use of his (or Sterling Shepard's) passing skills.

The next Ryan Broyles?

The kid is definitely good. Will he be All-Big 12 good? I think so!

It's ashame he will likely have to sit out one year. But the WR corps in 2014 looks to amazingly talented and deep!

i was thinking a little Broyles

that highlight video is impressive. i know it isn't against the best competition, but when you see a guy separate like that against division I athletes, it looks like he has elite speed and quickness and should have no problem being a playmaker in the big 12
