Why?!?!? Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 I'd really like to see Pryor in some red zone looks. Dude looked huge out there compared to the rest of the group . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FALCON7 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Going over the middle to catch a pass is just not in his DNA, and I say the same about Braxton Miller. Neither will ever make it in the NFL, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 I wouldn't mind some fades to a tall WR... back-shoulders either for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringbackbrownie2 Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'd really like to see Pryor in some red zone looks. Dude looked huge out there compared to the rest of the group . . .Agreed. He was running alongside Crow on one of his 50 yarders today and looked like a giant.

Tour2ma Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Agreed. He was running alongside Crow on one of his 50 yarders today and looked like a giant. A giant blocker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unsympathetic Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 Pryor looks like a giant. Does he have the humility to do the hard work Monday-Friday to play like a giant every down, every week? I simply don't think Pryor will put in the work - he's performed zero actions in his entire history that suggest he has the capacity to grind and achieve. Everything in his life has been relying on his athleticism and never looking to go beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 I have to admit, I was disappointed we didn't see a bit more of Pryor. I thought the game was in hand earlier, and after the injury to Hartline, I felt as if we should've designed a way to get Pryor the ball. I don't care if it was a quick hitch, a run, or whatever...let him touch the ball. What impressed me most about Pryor is reading the reports of how he showed up two weeks ago in phenomenal shape. Like, the best shape ever. That tells a coach so much. I'm not sure what our receivers will look like in 2016, but I'm definitely worried about what they look like NOW. LOL. Hartline hasn't had the season that many of us were hoping for, and just as he looks to be settling in...BOOM. I hate it for him, and for our team. Just who in the HELL is Manziel going to be throwing the ball to? Benji, Jennings, Marlan Moore, Pryor, and Barnidge? Yikes. I guess you could add in the RB's as receivers too, especially Duke, but man. It's slim pickings out there. I'd say we will see Dwayne Bowe, but I don't even know if we will. And even if we do, I'm assuming there is a reason he isn't playing besides Pettine not liking him. The very little I saw of Bowe, he looked painfully slow and didn't get a millimeter of separation. Now, as far as NEXT year, we have some work to do. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Farmer is toast. That means whoever comes in needs to address the WR position immediately, and it can't be done solely in the draft. I know we busted on big money to Bowe, but we have to try again. I don't know the FA's for next season, but there has to be someone out there with at least a little size. Gordon will be back (stop laughing), and so will Benji (I hope), and Barnidge. We need that "Michael Crabtree" type of receiver. The guy with great hands and some size that can move the chains. Hell, maybe Hartline can be that guy, but as we're seeing this year, we need depth.

gftChris Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 If it were up to me, I'd be putting Pryor on the Martavis Bryant route tree. Go, go, go some more, and we'll throw it to you if you're open. Maybe one slant/hitch per game, but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 That would use him, but I don't think he has Martavis' speed. Watching the highlight of the Crow run that Pryor "escorted", not only did Pryor not aid the run with a block, he did not gain ground on Crow...

gftChris Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 He ran a similar (slightly faster) 40 time, albeit a few years back. As for the crowell run, I think he did make ground, from being a yard or two behind, and 5+ yards wide, he caught up to being a yard or two wide and a yard wide, with runners in his way. He may need to learn 'functional' speed, but he's got it there IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
