Does Mathieu get it?


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Jay Glazer reported yesterday that Tyrann Mathieu recently cancelled two pre-draft visits claiming illness.

PFT further reported that on a visit he did make, Mathieu made a lousy impression on a veteran player who had overcome his own off-the-field issues. The player said he came off as more interested in how much money he was going to make than in being a good player and that he didn't seem all that enthused about hard work.

Now, one day after the report of his being too sick for draft visits, he's inviting people to come party with him. The instagram invitation lists him as "First Round Draft Pick Tyrann Mathieu, aka Honey Badger" (this after saying he was trying to move on from the nickname and the image associated with it).

So you tell me, is Mathieu just a kid with a big personality or is he a numbskull that just doesn't get it?

Don't think he gets it. After reports that he was unmotivated to even play in the National Championship game (which was evident considering he was targeted the whole game and got destroyed). This push is clearly a money grab, since he knows this is his last chance to make a lot of money(to buy a lot of weed). Too small, too weak, too weak minded, and doesn't have his priorities straight. We have enough small nickel corners, do not want.

I had actually forgotten about his reportedly saying he didn't want to play in the National Championship game.

His "after party" is scheduled for Thursday night in a New York City nightclub. I do wonder if he really believes he'll be taken in the first round. If so, I think he's in for a rude awakening.

I think he'll get drafted... but it won't be in the first...

Someone may take a chance on him in the 3rd, but probably he'll be in the 4th-5th.

He's a talent, but no... I don't think he gets it.

50/50 chance he's busted for pot his first season.

If the Panthers take him in round four or five, how do you react?

    • I was checking out Chris Brazzell II measureables, and I thought they looked suspiciously familiar. Turns out it was true, almost identical measureables to former Panthers DJ Chark circa 2023. I even checked Terrace Marshall Jr results, and honestly isn't that far behind them.   I know this isn't unique for just our team, but we seem to specifically have an obsession with trying to make this tall lanky speedsters work for us. I admittedly wasn't that high on Brazzell, and when I watched the tape I didn't really see that 4.3 speed, and a strong wind seems to tackle him.   I really liked most of the draft, including getting Hecht in the 5th when I graded him as a #1 Center in this draft. I'm rooting for the guy to work out, especially since our HC and OC made their bones as Wide Receiver coaches. But Brazzell is the only one I'm kinda meh on. I was hoping we'd trade up to get Big Citrus, or if we went WR I liked Ted Hurst much better. We'll see though. 3rd rounders seem to be coin-flips for us (see DJ Johnson/Matt Corral). But I'm rooting for the guy and for this experiment to finally pay off.   I haven't seen anyone else post something about this, so just thought it was interesting and passing it along.   #keeppounding   -------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview   Chris Brazzell II and D.J. Chark both possess nearly identical elite deep-threat profiles, highlighted by their tall, lanky builds and blazing sub-4.40 speed. Chark was slightly faster, while Brazzell offers a marginally heavier frame and longer wingspan. [1, 2, 3, 4] The side-by-side physical and athletic testing results from their respective NFL Scouting Combines outline their comparable profiles: [1] Metric [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] D.J. Chark (2018) Chris Brazzell II (2026) Height 6'3" 6'4" Weight 199 lbs 198 lbs Wingspan 78.5" 80.1" 40-Yard Dash 4.34 seconds 4.37 seconds 10-Yard Split ~1.50s (est.) 1.52 seconds Vertical Jump 40.0" 40.0" (pre-draft) Hand Size 9.25" 9.0" Analytical Comparison Size & Build: Both receivers offer an excellent catch radius with lanky, outside-threat frames. Brazzell holds a slight edge in height and an even more significant advantage in wingspan, giving him a massive target radius. Speed Profile: Chark famously recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time at his combine, while Brazzell was a standout at his event. Both times are elite for their size, translating directly to the "field-stretching" and vertical playmaking abilities that define their games. Draft Status: Chark was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second round (61st overall) of the 2018 Draft. Brazzell was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the third round (83rd overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft.
    • I still reserve my right to bitch about how incompetent the Panthers are at running a football organization and point to the mountains of evidence in support.
