Dazz Newsome Scouting Report

[Midwaymonster75]

Miller has been a huge disappointment. Loved him coming out but he has not put it together. Something just seems off with him.

Yup. Its unreal how disappointing he has been. Youre not the only one that loved him coming out of college as myself and many others thought he`d develop into a really good player. Looks like that wont be the case unfortunately.

 

[ThatGuyRyan]

Can the Bears please cut Miller now

And wims

 

[greg23]

I like this pick. This guy's got some speed. Marquis Goodwin may have more speed, but it's useless if you can't catch the balls.

thought i read he ran 4.6

fits in with most of this wr corp

 

[Bearly]

I bet he starts.

 

[DrGonzo]

CCS, where a sixth round pick is automatically competing for a starting spot. Party on Wayne.

[tcmtrinity]

At least not a jag like Miller. Solid pick.

Darnell Mooney says hello.

 

[run and shoot]

We should chucking the ball down field with some of this speed. And the Ives guy should be going over the middle. I have no idea what Nagy is thinking ?


dazz newsome
4.38 40-yard dash. has terrific separation quickness, fluidity in and out of his breaks, and deception to set up those breaks.

Mooney...4.38 seconds

Allen Robinson 4.6-second

marquise goodwin ....4.27-second ***

Thomas Ives 4.48 6'5"...why isn't he on the field in "red zone" situations


anthony miller 4.38 seconds

 

[jerkstore]

I think at first it’s kick returns and some schemed touches. He’s a better ball carrier than any of the other WR’s we have.

Well 4.38 is a big difference from 4.57. When I looked it up, it said 4.38

Newsome is another speedy weapon for new franchise quarterback Justin Fields — and Andy Dalton — as he was clocked running a 4.38 40-yard dash. The fact that Chicago was able to get Newsome in the sixth round was a steal, and some are wondering if we could have another Darnell Mooney on our hands.

I've read multiple other pre draft reports that all said he wasn't fast and didn't have top end speed but could separate quickly from defenders out-of the slot

I'm assuming he's not a 4.3 guy

I don't know. 4.38 was the first thing I saw, when I did a search and per that article.

[Da Coach]

Dazz Newsome sounds like a good WR name

My fist thought when we drafted him was hes already half way to super stardom with a name like that

 

[remydat]

I believe the 4.38 is a mistake that came from Bears wire.

I know of no other site that reported 4.38. Not sure if Bears wire saw his short shuttle and missed it up with his 40 time.

 

[jerkstore]

For some reason Newsome was the guy who jumped out at me this year when I was looking at the WR class. Very excited to see what he can do.

 

[Aquineas]

We can debate 4.5 vs 4.38 all you want; having run both of those times I realize that the difference between them is all about your start. Acceleration is important, but 40-time starts don't always translate to speed in and out of your breaks. Sometimes it does, but not always.

What I see here (about 46 seconds in) is velocity. He beats the safety to the corner even though the safety had a (slight) angle. It's not world-class speed, but he's not a world-class guy. But while world-class speed is nice, if it grew on trees, everyone would have it. Watch this clip:

Here (1:46) you see him beat one-on-one coverage (against Virginia Tech, mind-you, who has produced some NFL CB talent):

Again, he's got nowhere near Marquis Goodwin's speed. But I want to reiterate just how bad MG looked in the 2019 highlights I watched. MG looked stiff, ran poor routes, and had hands of stone. At least based on the 2019 footage I saw.

Back to Dazz Newsome, he catches the ball very well, seems tough enough, had enough speed to win many one-on-ones. He definitely looks faster than Wims.

 

[remydat]

Newsome gives you a RAC guy who can beat you deep if you sleep on him.

 

[pseudonym]

I think he's depth or PS and probably doesn't make team. WRs drafted this late rarely work out.
