Strengths:
Sidney Rice was a legitimate #1 offensive option the past two seasons for a high-octane offense at South Carolina. Wide Receivers in Steve Spurrier's offense regularly post gaudy numbers, but Sidney Rice does not fit the mold of former Spurrier WR's like Reidel Anthony, Jacquez Green, and Ike Hilliard, that have not succeed in the NFL. Many of those receivers had limited upside, while Rice has virtually limitless upside potential. He has amazing ball skills, great hands, he is smooth in traffic, and he has great body control while attacking a ball while in mid air. While being the fifth ranked receiver in this class, Sidney Rice is still a top twenty-five prospect overall. A team at the bottom of the first round is going to get one heck of a steal.
Weaknesses:
Sidney Rice is just 20 years old and after a sophomore campaign that was less productive than the freshman season some scouts feel that even a player with the talents of Rice may be a product of the Fun N’ Gun system. He also needs to refine his route running to become a more consistent threat in the NFL. Rice needs to use his size better and learn how to get separation at the next level.
Overall:
Another WR who may not blow people away initially with the results early on in his rookie season, tough to ask a twenty year old WR to step into the league and dominate immediately. Sidney Rice has all of the physical tools needed to dominate in the NFL, and that should ensure that he is a high pick in the 2007 NFL Draft.
