ArticlePatriots scouting report: Mitch Van Vooren’s athletic skillset is mouth-watering
From the article
Van Vooren combines decent size with a mouth-watering athletic skillset. He has the straight-line speed to get behind defenders down the seam or on go routes down the sideline, and the build let alone the leaping ability — he is a former hurdler, after all — to be competitive in jump-ball and contested-catch situations.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalBreakout
Van Vooren's athletic profile and length create jump-ball upside despite limited experience.
Van Vooren combines decent size (6'4½", 255 lbs) with a mouth-watering athletic skillset; he has straight-line speed to get behind defenders down the seam or on go routes, leaping ability as a former hurdler to compete in jump-ball and contested-catch situations, and long arms (8⅜" hands, 81" wingspan) allowing catches outside his natural frame. He also shows good feel for tempo, good concentration on back-shoulder throws, and is alignment-flexible with ability to move around the formation as both receiver and blocker.
