    Sweat? He showed up and did all his stuff at his exact playing weight: 366 lbs

    Had no idea AD would test this well. Hope he worked himself out of the Chief’s range.

    Is that fast?

    I've never seen him race a horse, so I'm dubious.

    How did the Longhorns not win the title. They had so much talent on offense.

    Haha yep - I need to go back and look at his tape. Knew he had jets but didn’t know he was this quick.

    Definitely needs to put on a little size though.

    Yeah, as much as I want defense. It might be the draft to go wideout

    Worthy was damn good at Texas, but obtained a rep for dropping a lot of deep balls

    There’s no question that there was a long spell in 2022 when Ewers couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a boat, but Worthy’s drops were also a story, so much so that it seemed to prompt Sarkisian to tell the media early last fall camp that Worthy played half of 2022 with a broken wrist for what that’s worth.

    Uh, no they’re not even in the realm of being the same player.

    My notes from late last year
    - struggled against press coverage > as a result
    of getting jammed up it impacted his ability to break free from contact
    - as a result of getting jammed/physicality of press he’s not going to be able to sue his speed at the next level
    - drops in the open field
    - inability to win the ball consistently in the air
    - high risk / high reward
    - can create separation but struggles against physicality

    pretty sure Devota had his way in college.
