Wtf, how about it’s on him. He’s a D1 player, he knows that hard work got him there. Harder work gets you to the next level. HE SHOULD KNOW THIS.but, yes his douchebag agent should also know this. Pretty sorry all around.
I’m not letting him off the hook, but you also hire an agent for not only contract negotiations but for guidance prior to the draft.
I don’t believe JJ is lazy or uncaring...he never exhibited those traits as far as I know.
This is just guessing and speculation on my part, but the stuff that an agent says to you to get you to sign on the dotted line, is different than what they should be saying to you after you sign. And that’s what I mean. Maybe he continued to get pumped up after signing, without being told that you need to do a whole lot more than your regular lifting and running to get ready for the combine.
Again, just speculation. But my theory is that JJ had more in him than what he showed at the combined, but wasn’t peaking at that time JMO.
In any event, he’s a value pick now, someone’s going to get good value for fourth and fifth or sixth round choice.
As far as Willis, in addition to his combine performance, he’s made every possible wrong decision he could have after the end of the regular season. I put that right on Peter.
He was on a short lease to the scouts because of his prior history, but also performed at a second or third round potential during the season.
There’s no question he performed at a second or third round level. After his last regular season game, every decision, everything he did, was in my opinion the exact opposite of what he should’ve been doing. That comes from agent advice.
He is also another value pick
