Norv Turner at Memphis pro day

Recommended Posts

Offensive coordinators from the Pittsburgh Steelers, Carolina Panthers and Detroit Lions joined receivers coaches from the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants for Memphis' pro day. Here’s what we are hearing.

There are a number of quick times being passed around for Anthony Miller. I’m told he ran in the low 4.6s into the wind and in the low 4.5s with the wind. The average will be in the mid 4.5s.

Miller was smooth moving about the field during drills but was double catching a lot of throws and needs to clean up his route running. He was unable to finish position drills due to what seemed like a calf cramp. Medical teams worked on Miller on the ground for a while before he was taken to the side.

Quarterback Riley Ferguson looked very good throwing the ball.

Panthers brass going to Southern Miss, Arkansas, and Memphis prodays.  Lol. Duke, ECU, and Youngstown State weren’t available? What a joke 

What? Are you even aware of the prospects on those teams like Ragnow and Miller or are you talking out of your ass?

Ah ok so talking out of your ass.

Guess they should go to the Alabama and UNC pro days and call it a season.

I’m honestly surprised Memphis and Southern Miss have enough NFL prospects to warrant a “pro day” at those schools. Arkansas hasn’t been very good the past decade either. 

Build through the draft though I’m all for it even though most of the Panthers drafts are average at best.

    • 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
