Are you seriously calling him the next Troy Williamson because he's fast?
Unless he had a bad habit of dropping passes in college, saying that he will be a bust because he's fast is absolutely rediculous.

Heyward-Bey has struggled with drops, at times, throughout his career

but he still drops his fair share of the easy ones

After the game, Friedgen said Heyward-Bey had apologized for his performance, which included a pair of drops.

Interesting... Well I don't know pooh about college ball, I don't watch a whole lot, I just thought he was calling him the next TWill based purely on his speed.

Harvin is more versatile and dynamic than Heyward-Bey.

plus he has stone hands... Heyward-bey

Him and Troy Williamson would make a great 1,2 punch by the sounds of things.

with stone hands.... no pun intended...

Cmon guys, just because a guy has blazing speed does not make him TWill.
He's also bigger/stronger, and faster... 4.30 is ridiculous speed.
And his pro day just went great..

"The headliner at Maryland’s pro day was Darrius Heyward-Bey (6-1 5/8, 212 pounds), who drew a bunch of receiver coaches, including the New York Jets’ Henry Ellard.

After running the fastest 40-yard dash at the combine (4.30 seconds), Heyward-Bey opted not to do workout drills again Wednesday. Instead, he focused his attention on the position drills and nailed that portion of the workout. He’s a smooth runner and is adept at catching the ball.

Heyward-Bey was one of 24 players who worked out in front of 50 scouts indoors on FieldTurf. (Heyward-Bey ranks fifth in Mike Mayock’s position rankings.)"
