Positives

An incredibly dynamic WR for the Golden Bears. DeSean is a playmaker in its purest form. He averaged 15 yards per catch in his career and over 16 yards per punt return. He has 27 touchdowns in just 35 games for the Bears. He may be the best punt returner I have ever seen, prompting teams to kick away from him in every game except the first game when he had an exhilarating 77 yard return against Tennessee. He finished with 6 career returning touchdowns in only 38 returns. His stats dramatically decreased in 2007 after a thumb injury hampered him all year. He also was a Pac-10 sensation and was only stopped when double teamed in the secondary. DeSean is incredibly quick, running a 4.29 40 time. He is great at the screen pass, but he is best used on long routes with double moves, freezing the defender. Last year against Oregon, he run a stop and go route and completely fooled the DB, trotting into the endzone. Hands are almost 2nd to none, rarely ever drops a pass.

Negatives

DeSean has very few weaknesses. He does however sometimes lose focus in a game, or get too into the oppenent. Can be a little too cocky, and can taunt the crowd excessively.
