It doesn't matter what the exercise is man. It's the fact that he wants to pick and choose what he wants to do. If his competition completes every measurement why would he not do it?  What is he afraid of? If it's injury I would hate to see I'm in a game when the bullets fly. This league is not for the faint at heart.

All the teams, including the Panthers, have C'J. Stroud's  40 time and I feel sure it was impressive enough not to scare any of these teams off.

The fact that Stroud has an impressive strong arm and pinpoint accuracy is his primary calling call, not his 40 time ,long jumps or bench press history.

And the #1 overall pick isn't/doesn't?

They have it made and are treated like gods as long as they play well and win. Just like the NFL. They have to compete against a pressure cooker of talent within the program for playing time too. Just like the NFL.

It's as close as you can get to an NFL environment outside of the NFL. What makes the evaluation process tough for these guys is just how much better their supporting cast is compared to the teams they're playing week in and week out. 

I guess we just have a different perspective on the competition level between college and the pros. Being the number one overall pick is glorious until his first nfl game.  That's when reality sets in. All the hype in the world won't save him now.

He's an athletic freak. What player in the nfl isn't? What is he made of and what is in his head?  Is he weak or is he a dawg?  Does he play checkers or does he play chess? Does he even eat BBQ for heaven sake?  

I feel like I'm in a room full of crazy people.

    • Pretty sure that a QB contract payday is all the competition any QB in this league needs, I don't think a competent backup is going to make them play any harder when the current situation wouldn't warrant the contract extension yet anyways. Your opening point in this post is also the problem, "Bryce has shown signs of improving", but that's still all he's shown, and he's only showing that because of just how bad he was to start his career. If he played like last season from the beginning and never improved one bit, then I actually think more fans would be ready to move on from him, which is what's weird.  It's like going from one of the biggest draft busts of all time into the 25th best QB in the league over 3 years means he deserves a long term $40+ million a year contract extension. Improvement shouldn't be the goal when the result of said improvement is still bottom of the league levels.
    • Yeah, but we've seen him do it. Just not often. I think that's the reason for the taller WRs. Would likely be a problem finding someone like Jimmy Horn in the mess.
    • And the Rams, Seattle, Patriots, Green Bay, Jaguars and the Bills who all made the playoffs and in case you forgot, Seattle and the Patriots played in the SB. By any measure, that's pretty brutal.
