Height: 6'5

Weight: 229

40 Time: 4.36

Vert: 43

B. Jump: 10'8

BP: 19

20 Yard Shuttle: 4.38

3 Cone: 6.78

Wingspan: 80 1/4

His measurables are very impressive and the little we have seen from him in the Pre-Season showed he has potential. The question is can he come in and make a difference and possibly start for the Carolina Panthers? I'm hoping we see more of Mr. Bryant in the Pre-Season if possible with a quarterback who can actually get him the ball instead of Clausen (Hopefully see how he does with Cam). If this project works out correctly we could have the deep threat and Goal Line receiver we've been looking for

Here are some of his draft notes coming out of college

Notes:

The Newport News, Va., native was a dual-threat quarterback as a prep, who also played wide receiver, free safety and defensive end. Redshirted and spent the 2007 season as quarterback. Was moved to tight end in ’08 and saw action in five games on special teams, where he blocked two punts. In ’09, he caught 18 passes for 251 yards (13.9-yard average) and two touchdowns on his way to first-team all-conference honors in 10 games. Recorded 5-55-0 (11.0) in eight games in ’10, missing three games with a torn MCL in his left knee. Played in all 11 games in ’11, catching 21-371-2 (17.7).

Positives:

Physically talented — intriguing length, speed and athletic ability. Covers ground with long, fluid strides and can threaten the field vertically. Has a 42-inch vertical. Adjusts to throws. Competitive after the catch. Has some upside.

Summary:

Lean, athletic, underdeveloped, receiver-sized, "flex" tight end with raw physical ability and discouraging intangibles. Developmental project requiring patience and has to be managed closely to have a chance.

Here is some videos of Lamont Bryant (sorry it's very limited video sources of Bryant)

Hopefully during Gettleman's "top to bottom" evaluation of our roster he will ask Ron when does this guy get a chance?

On a side-note...hey Zod...can we have Gettleman's name added to the Huddle dictionary so it doesn't show up with a red line underneath it every time I type his name?

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
