How high is Bishop's ceiling?

[machine gun kelly]

He’s benefiting of having Poyer in his ear after every play.

[ChronicAndKnuckles]

Bishop’s ceiling is higher than Robert Downey Jr in the 90s.

[Comebackkid]

probably higher than mine. 

theoretically, hypothetically and realistically based on past

history and future speculation.

Better than poyer and Hyde when he reaches his peak

That’s bold but I like it. His ceiling is probably higher because of his athleticism. Those guys both reach all-pro status. If Bishop does that, it’ll be a massive success. 

[Kelly to Allen]

I mean he looks awesome! So idk. I think it's safe to assume at minimum he'll be a solid player. But he's playing at an extremely high level right now

McDermott really is a whisper with defensive backs who buy in to him 

 

His mixture of football talent football IQ and athleticism I think is going to actually propel him past those two guys who were studs 

 

But we always said the sum of those two parts with poyer and hyde and how they grew with McDermott was a massive part for their success.. individually maybe not all pro caliber, playing besides each other they were a All-Pro Duo

 

Cole is going to hit like poyer, runs faster than Micah, has hands , can jump... Individually he screams future high-end safety

 

Sky is the limit with his age and athleticism and football IQ

Hasn't helped the Bills D so much...

Poyer is not the problem

[Lafromboise]

Just instincts. He has a great feel and intuition. It's the most important trait to be a great defensive back. Either you got it or you don't and it's looking like he's got it. Proud of him.

[Brandon]

Athletically,  he can be as good as anyone.  It's just a matter of his instincts and his understanding of his role in the system.

Pro Bowl this year???

It’s funny how just two months ago the secondary was a major issue 

 

 

now I’m seeing a bright future with him, Hancock, benford and mad max for the next 3-4 years

I heard McD and Beane were close to actually cutting Bishop, after a really harsh post here on TBD.  Good thing they held the course.

“My god man do you see the number of likes this post has?! He has to go!”

And this is why judging the teams chances to win it all in sept and October is comical.  Injuries and player/coaching progressions and how they adapt is more important than anything happening in those months imo.  Lots changes throughout the season

[GunnerBill]

I think it is pretty high. The issue was a pretty low floor and until JoPo got in alongide him that is what we got. But no question - Bish has been great the last 4 or 5 games. Very optimistic now for his future. 

 

Bishop, Benford and Hairston is three nice young building blocks in that secondary.

[Puckman5]

To determine the height of an NFL players ceiling, we must first calculate his median floor height and add some yet to be determined number of feet / (his propensity  for injury variable x his average number of missed meetings) squared .  It's that simple!
