The Pacing and Control of Elite NFL Movers/Decision-Makers and the Pro-Readiness of WRs Marvin Harrison, Jr vs. Malik Nabers: Going Deep with Brandon Angelo and Matt Waldman

Matt Waldman's RSP Cast

On this week’s episode of the Going Deep podcast, Brandon Angelo and Matt Waldman discuss what several elite NFL players have in common as movers and decision-makers, why Malik Nabers is more NFL-ready than Marvin Harrison, Jr., and a preview of next week's show on the impact NIL will have on the NFL long-term. Brandon Angelo works in sports and human performance. A former 4-time All-American and Power Five conference champion sprinter, Brandon is a mentor, instructor, and guide for athletes. He’s also the proprietor of Angelo Analysis, a subscription-based fantasy website devoted to player evaluation. After doing a few podcasts together during the past 12 months, Brandon and I decided we would enjoy having a recurring show to discuss aspects of player evaluation and NFL Draft topics that you don’t often hear about in mainstream media. This pre-draft pod about the NFL’s disparities with 40 times and several more ’23 draft and free agent topics is a must-listen. Going Deep will feature podcasts twice a month. You can either watch/listen on YouTube, listen from the player at the bottom of the page, or download the podcast at most outlets, including Google, Spotify, and iTunes. https://youtu.be/ynOBe27N-t4 This Week’s Topics Controlled Pacing: What Lamar Jackson, Jahmyr Gibbs, Christian McCaffrey, and James Cook have in common.
