2012 NFL Draft: 5 Best Video Highlights of Prospect Justin Blackmon

As the sixth best prospect coming out in this draft, everyone is waiting to see just what Justin Blackmon can do as a pro football player.

First, we shall see where he winds up.

Blackmon may create as much buzz as the two superstars, Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin, III, who will both be selected before him.

At 6'1", Blackmon is not as tall as I had thought him to be and, while he's compared to Terrell Owens in talent, the fact someone like Michael Floyd is a full two inches taller than him could hurt his draft stock.

While he's projected to be taken by the St. Louis Rams at the sixth slot, the Jacksonville Jaguars (and myself) are hoping he falls one more spot.

Wherever he's chosen, Blackmon will undoubtedly help a struggling passing game and revitalize an offense needing help.

Here are some highlights which show the former Oklahoma State Cowboys' ability.

Having a Fiesta in the Desert

The best bowl game of the 2011 season was the Fiesta Bowl, pitting Stanford against Oklahoma State.

It was a highlight reel for Andrew Luck and Blackmon.

On his first touchdown of the night, Blackmon had the defense beat in the seam and had to wait on quarterback Brandon Weeden to get the ball to him.

Blackmon gets off the line quickly, which is a great asset to have.

A Man Amongst Boys

It seems like every time Blackmon scores a touchdown, it's child's play.

While he may not be the most fluid of receivers, Blackmon is always around the ball and always in a situation to take it to the house.

He will be a great red zone target and quarterbacks will use Blackmon in end-zone packages, too.

Breaking Away

If there was any question about his speed on the field, it was answered at Blackmon's pro day.

The 4.39 in the 40-yard dash proved Blackmon is a fast man and will be able to split and separate from defenders across the middle or on a fly route.

Put It Up, I Will Catch It

A lot of this has to do with the chemistry between Blackmon and quarterback Brandon Weeden.

When it seemed like the ball was on a line, all Blackmon had to do was run under it and it was delivered to him.

That also means Blackmon has great catch-up speed. And when battling a defender off the line, he can turn on another speed and make the play.

Blackmon uses his size and ability catch the ball in traffic or in the back of the end zone.

Blackmon uses his entire body to make the play, turning the defender away and uses his hands to catch the ball.

It will be interesting to see if he can do that against athletic cornerbacks and safeties who are much tougher in the NFL.
