There's underwear fast and then there is game day fast.  Are we sure that he is game day fast?  Pro day 40's can be charitable to players.

I mean, we can say that about every player. Some Huddlers are digging out Warren even more. I see players who have been effective last season (Warren supremely so). I've seen relative speed in spurts, but like Dude intimated, when you have that size and ability to use that big body effectively, relatively good speed is some degree of a bonus.

4.48, 4.5, 4.55

I don’t think that matters for him. 

He is a skilled and big enough WR that he will be very productive and dangerous in the NFL. 

Truly curious.  Would you take him at 8 and if yes, what other players would have to be off the board to make you take him?  I have wavered back and forth on what players I would take him ahead of at 8.

I think he will at worst be a productive NFL receiver, but I don't think there's any chance we draft him.  At this point, if there's not a public love letter about a prospect, they probably aren't even on our board.  I think there's next to a 0% chance that we draft McMillan or Warren.

So essentially he would have run ~4.65 at the combine. Kind of what was expected if I recall correctly. And good for his size.

Upon further research, there is a little bit of a controversy, as scouts there clocked him any where between 4.54-4.57 (still not super slow, but not fast either).

That x account isn't an actual NFL reporter just a random guy that bought the account

So, you just want to add to the controversy with this post as well?

Because it's not correct either, as some had him timed as fast as 4.46.

There were 40 scouts there apparently, so yea, when they're all hand timing him, it's going to give you a wide range of possible times, but in the end, 40 times don't matter anyways.  Running a 4.46 or a 4.58 is basically all the same when his game isn't predicated on speed.

He has more than enough speed given all his other attributes he brings, which is all that matters in the end.

No, he's not a track star, but his size and hands are both 99th percentile amongst NFL WRs.  Which is why I don't get all the fan hand wringing over his speed, because it's just ignoring the things he can do that almost every other WR in the NFL can't do.

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      How do you expect him to step up in the pocket when Ickey is being pushed to the spot you want him to be. Stills don’t tell the entire picture.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
