Gettis trying out for Bucs

Recommended Posts

One of the guys that the huddle loved is trying out for the Bucs per Pro Football talk.

Really thought he had some talent but seems to not be able to stick anywhere.The bad memory's of the 2010 horror are softened by his one bright season.Wish him luck but not with the Bucs.

David Gettis is the poster boy for Ron Rivera's doghouse.  

 

 

After going in that black hole and never coming out, and losing out to the numbers game in D.C., he should have plenty of motivation.  

 

 

If he doesn't make the squad there, especially for health reasons, I'm thinking that it's time for him to give up the ghost.

IF he makes their squad, I will be interested to see not only if he can best the numbers of Tiquan Underwood there, but also Tiquan Underwood here (assuming that Underwood makes the team).

Yeah good luck with that.

Has he even logged a single NFL catch since the 2010 season here? Not that I can find.

He was a track speed guy that tore his ACL, and apparently didn't rehab well at all from it.  For the life of me I couldn't' understand his struggle, I've had the surgery twice and don't see how it took over 2 years for him to recover.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
