Positive: Reliable possession wide out with average size/speed numbers. Consistently catches the ball away from his body and displays good eye/hand coordination. Adjusts the errant throw, makes the reception in stride, and gets down for low passes. Goes over the middle to make the difficult catch in a crowd. Keeps the play in bounds and works to pick up positive yardage running after the catch. Displays a good sense of timing. Smart receiver who does a nice job coming back into the clearing to make himself an available target.
Negative: Average route runner. One-speed receiver who cannot stretch the field.
Analysis: Pilares has shown terrific development in his game the past two seasons after moving to the receiver position. He lacks great size but could be a fifth wide out who primarily lines up in the slot for an NFL team."
