Seems like when he tries to get physical he has ball control issues . . .

I’m really glad Matt Bushman plays for BYU. With that said on TV he looks so

He's averaging 13.5 yards/catch for his career. Well above average for a TE. Pitta was 13.1

I know he’s really good but it’s what I think a giant looks like running. You

Pita was way more polished. Used his body better to shield the defender. Bushman

Bushman is legit. He has NFL written all over him.

Everyone says it. Must be so. How fast is his 40?

Depends on whether he's running it in Provo or at Rice Eccles.

He's a great player, but he seems to get tackled too easily. Would like to see

If he focused on powering through contact rather than avoiding it, he'd have several additional first downs this year.

Pistol Shrimp

Yeah remember his tackle breaking at Boise last yr??? Im fine with him just

TBabyCougs

I guess I don't understand why he can't do both

He seems to lack the physicality that, at least I see, other NFL TEs seem to have.

If he’d try to truck people I’d be happy. He’s dancing around them.

He needs to improve his blocking- there are times it is pitiful and seemingly

Um, before he'll have ANY NFL attention? He already has it.

Lip Gallagher

If he learns how to block better as a TE, maybe the NFL is in his future.

fulano

10/22/19 1:08pm

Um, that's the entire NFL. Lead TEs are pass catchers far above all else.

Lip Gallagher

10/22/19 4:55pm

He needs about 10 more lbs, but he has everything else.

Thrill

10/22/19 10:48am

Agreed. He almost looks like a WR, though he's listed as 6'5" & 245. Wonder..

I think taller guys tend to look slower than shorter guys. In part, because

It's true. Gronkowski always looked slow...like a lumbering Frankenstein

Machiavelli

10/22/19 11:34am

Yes. I agree. He looks extremely slow.

idacoug

what is his FDWNC ratio? Fall Down With No Contact

Str8CashCougar

High. Indiv blades of grass w tackle credits

MatthiasPhunkHausen

i noticed the same thing. He's a "lumbering" sorta fella.

Jason Witten has made a hall of fame career without running on the football fld

I played with a big TE named Todd Heap and he looked the same way on game film sometimes. But he was amazing and went on

Go Toros! I could go for some Tia Rosas about now.

When he stands next to anyone else and you see how much longer his legs are, it

In high school he was very fast, but much leaner as well

Yep- me a half the people on this thread

Usain Bolt looked slower than he really was because he had long legs.

Do we talk about Usain Bolt in the past tense now?
