I love watching football but wouldn't identify myself as a talent evaluator. Does Pascal have a lot of speed? His ability to get open is incredible and maybe the best we've seen. Is he a burner?

I don't think Pascal is a speedster. I really was worried about him as the go to guy after his soph year because the catches he made the first two years just seemed to be tough catches from Heinicke as opposed to him blowing by guys. But, there were times he showed some speed last year. Check out the 1 min mark in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojvmXGnR5AA

Still, most of his catches are with defenders close by, but he's able to come through with the catch.
