Another weapon for QB1.

He is a flyer on the outside," NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah said after the selection. "Big time vertical threat. He's excellent on jet sweeps." The pick came from the Eagles in the previous Robert Quinn trade last season. "He can really take the top off. Justin is going to like throwing to him deep," Bear scout Ryan Cavanaugh said about Scott. “Justin’s going to like throwing to him deep."

A great teammate and will open a lot of eyes with his playmaking abilities."
Scott is an absolute speedster and is a homerun threat at all times
His explosive speed translates well to the vertical passing game as all 14 of his CFB tds were 20+ yards & his average td catch is 44.6 yards
He will cause problems for every defense. pic.twitter.com/FjjGae03ua
Late 2nd/early 3rd round grade on him. He's an explosive athlete with game changing speed and is a much better route runner than given credit for. Undersized but is dangerous with the ball in his hands and a legit deep threat. Love this pic.twitter.com/glgbOkvTnc
