It's super fuged up. He might be cocky and his dad's antics might be insufferable but he is still just a kid. Making him go through something like this and then doing that is fuged up.

I will say that someone from one of the NFL teams very clearly leaked that number.

Could have been a "friend"

See Tank Dell's combine numbers- size and 40. Tez is actually bigger and they ran very similar 40s. Straight line speed is overrated. Agree that size helps. But that dude is just a football player. And a true wide receiver. 

His game speed looks much faster than his 40. There’s lots of plays were he’s leaves his DB.

It's really shitty to do something like that... I don't feel terrible he hasn't been drafted tbh - he will land on a team - but it isn't his fault his father is who he is and he doesn't deserve torment right now for it.

Yes but you are literally making my point for me. Tank Dell has missed 11 of 25 career games with injuries. Not minor injuries either. Concussion, broken leg and now a blown out knee. 

It's not that Johnson isn't a good football player. Not at all. It's that he might rarely see the field for you.

Now, all that being said, he IS the type of player that makes sense in the 5th round or lower.

You can say Shedeur sucks all you want, but these guys getting drafted instead of him are terrible.  Dillon Gabriel in the 3rd?  lmao Browns gonna Brown.  That's a hell of a reach for a team that's trying to do anything but pick him.

I don’t think it’s his skills that are making him fall. More than likely a sh!tyy attitude.

If you don't think he's a starter for you, that means he's a backup. So then, you have to decide what his potential ceiling is, and then evaluate how well you think he'd do as a backup. Unfortunately, he doesn't come off as a backup and I think the sad reality is his father's media circus turns people off from that.

I know. Literally only one of these guys MIGHT be better than him and it's probably Shough, although his injury history is bananas. 

Dillon Gabriel is a poor man's Chad Pennington.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      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
