Is McVay sandbagging?

Daniel Jones ran a 4.81 at the combine but has been clocked at 21.23 on one of his long runs. It's inaccurate to project a 40 yrd dash time using a clocked top speed.

I gave up believing McVay sandbagged after the SB. I thought for sure he was sandbagging to cut loose in that game but he didn't. If not then... when?

This. Every time I thought McVay might be holding something back to surprise with later, I was wrong. The dude plays it like he plays it. WYSIWYG. This is the offense we're seeing now and the rest of the year unless something like an injury forces his hand.

McVay is sandbagging because the almost 35 yr old receiver is not living up to YOUR expectations?

Good debate so far.
After reviewing both sides - - Which indicator translates to best deep threat? Top speed (VJ) or 40 time (DJ)?

I'm thinking on a longer developing deep post route: top speed beats out acceleration. (I lean toward VJ being the better guy)

On a go/fly route you might want that 'blow by' speed if the db misses on the jam. Often this route can connect with a quicker, shorter throw with plenty YAC. (I lean toward DJ being the better guy)

Or we might all be overthinking it.
Could be as simple as "Fast is good".... "slow is bad"..."both options great".

Go Rams!

If I may jump in, this could go either way, I think we’ll have a much better feel after this Sunday, I HOPE he hasn’t shown the complete toolbox after two weeks but I guess ya never know
