Dear Coach Bradley,

Train Marcedes in jumping, on the kind of equiptment they have for basketball, That thing they use to improve jump.

 

Get Marcedes Lewis to practice catching the ball over his head, and falling with his legs straight.

Start with a 75 degree angle of a mat against something, maybe a blocking sled.

He'll catch the ball over his head and tuck-in the ball while falling against the 75degree angled mat.

Right side, then left side, backward, forward.

Then decrease the angle over time (days?), 60degrees, 45, and so on to ground level.(no mat)

Ending with him standing on a Milk Crate, catching the ball over his head, tucking it in while falling, with his legs straight, against the ground.

 

That way, Bortles can over throw to Marcedes- because he IS tall- and him able to jump to catch it over his head and tuck and fall down. Also ideally in the endzone, far corners, of course for those awesome plays that will  use Marcedes size and speed and people will say, "oh THAT is why...", And maybe Brumo's will run an ad campaign, because "who would want a mercedes when they can get a MArcedes! " ha ha.
