Any thoughts on Jamison Crowder from Duke?

Played HS football at Monroe, college at Duke, NFL with the Panthers?

 

Great role model, super intelligent, great hands, good blocker, great return guy with a good second gear. Only knock on him is his size, he's only 5'9 and that could be especially bad being paired with Cam.

 

Anybody else like me want to see us use a late-round pick on him though? He feels like a 5th round guy. He has the potential to be Steve Smith without the locker room cancer presence.

Crowder, Devon Smith from Ohio State, and Justin Hardy from ECU looked good in practice today. Crowder got good separation mid-field, Devon showed off some deep speed, and Justin was attacking the ball around a defender. Just my impressions.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
