Why Dockery Isn't in the NFL 

Cus he was a solid D2 player type ceiling. He made like 4 catches at Oregon State a pac 12 bottom feeder

At his size, NFL scouts are looking for someone like Tyreek or Odell. Or someone that has the route running of AB. Not running a 4.4 didn't help him either, at 5'10 180 you gotta bring speed, agility, and route running

A big thing about Doc and Deestroying is that they’re both entertainers. The both of them did little to nothing in college. You can post a ton of workout videos on RU-vid with an inspiring message, but it’s clear neither of them really have what it takes and that’s okay! It’s incredibly difficult to make it to the league, you have to be incredibly talented and not being at that level isn’t something to be ashamed of. They both found a niche that worked for them and they’ve found success from it.

He had no stats, severely injury prone and just makes one hand catches on air on IG. These videos are like asking why prisoners aren’t Astronauts.

Just watching his tape, the thing that jumps out is that he’s slow. He’s got decent short area quickness, but he’s got no acceleration. He looks like he’s a high 4.6 to 4.7 guy. If you’re a big bodied WR who can be a possession receiver and a red zone mismatch, you might get a shot with that speed. An undersized guy who’s slow, only if he’d had a really productive college career. At 28, he’s gonna have to try an alternative league and go off if he hopes to get a FA tryout in the NFL.

Lmao I have friends that can make insane 1 handed catches, backflip catches, jumping off a skyscraper 15 flips in total landing on his two feet catches and they aren’t in the nfl. Long story short, Dockery wasn’t a good receiver. He’s a social media entertainer.

It’s all about perspective. There are hundreds of players better than him that didn’t make it to the NFL. Not a knock on Dockery, it’s just that D1 prospects and pros are on a whole nother level of talent and athleticism. At least he’s found success in being a football content creator

Everyone saying he’s trash I can see why you say that but it isn’t warranted. The coach that gave him his chance got fired and because of that he didn’t play much. You can make the argument that he didn’t play because he wasn’t good and that’s understandable. But some coaches like “there guys” and when a new coach comes in and brings players he likes into the program and system, players that were there previously from the last coach can be overlooked and left out. If he actually got a chance to play a substantial amount of time and the stats weren’t up to par then I can understand. All he needs is one opportunity to make a break the debate. Having a bad pro day doesn’t help either that’s on him. Btw I’ve never even watch this guys channel or even knew who he was but this video was in my recommended and I thought it looked interesting.

With the spring leagues coming back and if he is not like others he could go through that way

his brother is definitely making it to the nfl.

Can answer this one quick, flashy catches and beating high schoolers doesn’t mean anything Let’s be Fair Most CB2’s in NFL would spit him straight out Edit: same applies for Deestroying, they’re flashes in the pan, scrougs recognise talent, Ala James Robinson, Deonte Harris, Jordan Maliata, Theilin, Austin Ekler

I still remember him on scarce saying he was going to tge NFL

Sorry to hate on him here, but the answer as to why is simple. 1. His ceiling was a d2 receiver, maybe depth receiver in d1. During his stay at a bottom feeder Oregon State he caught 9 passes in 3 years. 2. Physically he’s far below the NFL standards for the position. He’s only 5’10, but ran a 4.69 40 at his pro day, which frankly is way too slow for someone at his size in the modern nfl. On top of that he’s also injury prone and over 30 now. So no it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s never made an nfl team, guy barely had a roster spot on a weak college team and wasn’t even invited to the combine. I can already hear someone trying to bring up his Instagram catches and using those OBJ, Juju and Seahawks connections in a argument for him, but all of that means nothing tbh because all of those connections were due to his social media presence not his performance on the field. His trickshot catches ≠ nfl talent, there’s more to football than making spinning 1 handed catches with some friends. I’m glad he still found a way to make money off the sport, but he was never a nfl caliber player and it’s just silly to twist his story to make it seem he was just because he makes some pretty social media catches and has a large following.

People don’t make it to the NFL bc they’re uber athletic and can do acrobatic shit like catch a ball one handed whilst doing a backflip. Sure that shit looks cool and wild for a VIDEO, but everyone in the NFL is just as athletic (if not more) they’re just as big, fast, strong, hungry, and smarter than you are (if not more) bc experience is a big thing, something Dockery doesn’t really have. People make it to the NFL bc they perfected the little things like (for example as a WR) they perfected route running and footwork, keeping both feet in bounds, how to get open using their hands, how to read a DB etc. This shit goes on forever and you’ll never be a master of all, but that’s the point…put in the work and learn, which is what ultimately separates good NFL players to Hall of Famers (work ethic) natural athletic ability is just something they all have, but that shouldn’t be your only one defining factor as a player.

Anything is possible

I hope he does. I believe in him.

Or he should become a college or high school coach.

There are better players🤷🏾‍♂️ he’s just a Instagram Tik tok guy now. He’s athletic yes but he doesn’t have the NFL talent to be able to contribute

I saw his pro day numbers... That is the real reason why he's not on an NFL roster. Not good enough from an athletic standpoint for the NFL. A 4.69 IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A WIDE RECEIVER.

Quick answer if you ask why 9/10 times they're not good enough and for that 1/10 they committed a crime

We need to eliminate poverty. There are so many brilliant people who aren’t getting a chance to succeed.

He’s still really talented. Good for him for making something on social media.

Bro put him on the lions man we got no receivers

He's pretty good great hands but sooooo many don't get to go so

They doing him dirty he should be in the league but now I understand why

Didn't he play for the seahawks tho

Did you forget that the Vikings signed him in 2018?

Funny how all these RU-vid guys got yal believing they should be in the league….

Wasssssup.

both him and deestorying would be in the league there youtube channels hold em back a coach wont take a chance on them while there still doing this shit lol i dont get why they havent realized that ya can bring it back after u prove urself but a team isnt gonna take a chance on u while at the same time ur vlogging it lol

Me thinking dockery was something else 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

because any nfl cb would lock him up and would barely get plays. being flashy ≠ good

Jesus loves you so much he died for you give your life to him and ask for forgiveness

lmao he's athletic but his numbers were trash in college he's your typical D2 athlete

anyone choosing youtube over football explains why they not in the nfl, they drama queens!

Cuz just like deestroying he choice the fame over the nfl

he has 9 catches in his college career...............................................

Probably

Its because those instagram one handed catches aint happening in a game

✝️THANK YOU JESUS

so what about his brother???

Everybody got a highlight reel

Kind of like destroyings story

Bro is 29 now I don’t see him going to nfl

bro dockery is signed to the seahawks

Summary: Because he's not NFL material

First comment!! Let’s Go!!!!!!

i thought he was like 22

Bro just because you can make flashy tic tocks and promote hypebeast culture and influence doesn't mean you have nfl talent. Bruh was an...OK...athlete but he convincing these gen z kids he was the next tyreek hill....

Because he works as hard as one of my legs

Bruh Seahawks gotta sign him

Easy like us just not good enough

He deserves to be in the nfl

Who Dockery?

Cuz if he was in high school he’d be mid still

I guarantee Dockery would route up all y'all.

this fool had a terrible career in football. but he’s been all over social media for his wild catches. He ain’t good

He think he’s the next OBJ lmao

Idk why isn’t in the league why don’t league teams look at people on social media

He did not put up good stats and he's injury prone much like the Harlem Globetrotters they are showmen not pro...

idk bout loads of talent!!??? He's not that great ngl

Well, bro is exposing the NFL now, so I don't think he's going to get the call lol

he just wasnt good enough tbh

Man stop the CAP.

Stick to RU-vid bro

Bc he and destroying are not good enough... Please accept it
