Maybe they can put him in for a handful of plays and run some quick outs or something.
Yeah, I look at guys like Gronk and Randy Moss who I think are near-brilliant when it comes to football intelligence, at least according to BB and TB12. While I think both of them are likely far more intelligent in non-football areas than some would believe, I'd guess their overall mental acuity is, in fact, somewhat less than their football smarts. But, once again, like others I'm really just speculating.
He definitely falls under the "doesn't test well" category then, with his 12 on the Wonderlic.I read somewhere Moss is Good Will Hunting-Mensa International smart. I'll have to dig it up. It doesn't surprise me. You never know with people.
I like Colemans skill set for our offense over Dez.
Maybe if he has a good year he resigns at a reasonable rate.
Are we signing any of the cut players back to the ps?
The other thing to take into consideration is the talent or lack of talent around him.
It wouldn’t surprise me if he plays more than I expect. Either way I’m looking forward to seeing him play. Looks very explosive
I know! Crazy.He definitely falls under the "doesn't test well" category then, with his 12 on the Wonderlic.

Bill struggling to contain his enthusiasm about the new signings:
Bill struggling to contain his enthusiasm about the new signings:
Got one right for now until he fumbles.Makes too much sense to sign Dez. Hogan has been bland. Not a #1 guy and sufferes with no JE. Much better #2.
Dez can get contested balls and has a chip.
Hill to I.R McCarron to P.S. and sign Kenjon Barner(4th in punt retrun yardage.) and Dez.

Why bother dumpster diving? Just give Bryant a tryout.
There’s literally no universe where Coleman or Fowler are better receivers than Dez.
They threw 40 times. Are you saying it’s a good thing he wasn’t open for 3 quarters?
Yes. Are you telling me that you think josh Gordon was open and Tyrod Taylor refused to throw him the ball?Are you saying that Tyrod Taylor determining that you weren't "open" is a good criterion?
reminds me of alvin mack in The Program, when he's being tutored:I know! Crazy.
FWIW My buddy was an english major at U of Miami in the early 90s. He tutored Ray Lewis (and Sapp, Ryan McNeil, etc). He said Lewis had a 2nd grade reading level but was not a stupid man (I know, hard to believe). He scored a 13.
I think with some of these athletes who score poorly on these tests their formal education is terrible and grow up in environments in which they are surrounded by people who have not had formal or classical education. Because they are not learned in math, english and science, they score poorly.
Alvin's Tutor: Which two city-states fought in the Punic Wars?
Alvin Mack: I dunno, Detroit and Buffalo?
Coach Winters: Alright, this is Mississippi State's offensive set. Second and two on our own 24, what defensive set might we call?
Alvin Mack: Eagle Zipper Hero, unless the setback shifts into the I.
Coach Winters: Good
