This kind of gets back to my earlier comment about QBs under Kelly in year 2. Some of these QBs look like world beaters when the offense is dumbed down and their responsibilities are low, but when the playbook gets opened up and more is put on their shoulders they often crumble.

Kizer looked like a world beater those first few games of year 2. He crumbled after that, along with the rest of the team

This has been a consistent issue with BK and his QBs. However, I think in the Kizer situation he just didn't work hard in the off season and came back ill prepared and out of shape.

Ian Book became victim to this in his second year. But, at the 3/4 season mark Book broke out and became the man. Hope that continues in year 3 for Book.

I don’t think we can really compare Book to Kizer under the ‘Kelly regression theory’ as Long was OC and calling plays during his career. The system that Kelly brought with him and Long’s are different from a QB philosophy/responsibilities standpoint. In fact, quite opposite.

If Book remains starter all season, this will really be the first QB Kelly has had that will have almost 3 full seasons as starter under his belt when all is said and done. Rees had about 2 1/4 which was broken up by a year of Golson, Kizer had almost 2, Golson had about 2, Wimbush a little less. I hope he continues to ride that wave he ended the season on too.

Former Cleveland Browns and Green Bay Packers quarterback Deshone Kizer worked out Monday with the Tennessee Titans, according to a list shared by CBS Sportsline's Allan Bell. The group included former Denver Broncos and New York Jets quarterback Trevor Siemian.

Kizer, 24, takes aim at a new opportunity after spending the 2019 season in Oakland with the Raiders. After his Sept. 1 signing, Kizer did not appear in a game and was waived May 5.

Kizer spent the 2019 preseason with the Packers before his Aug. 31, 2019, release among the final roster cuts. He backed up Packers veteran Aaron Rodgers in 2018, making three appearances and completing 20 of 42 passes (47.6 percent) for 187 yards with zero touchdowns to two interceptions.

The Packers added Kizer in a March 14, 2018, trade that sent safety Damarious Randall to the Browns. The teams also swapped fourth- and fifth-round draft picks.

"I truly believe that I'm on an upward trajectory," Kizer said July 3, 2019, according to PackersNew.com. "I'm playing the best football I've ever played. I'm not turning the ball over as much anymore. I'm seeing the game. I'm learning so much from Aaron. I'm learning so much from the systems that I've been in that I truly believe that at any point in time as we speak, if I can continue to stay on the path that I'm on right now, that I can get back to the path that I thought that I was on as a rookie starting in this league."

Selected by the Browns with the No. 52 overall pick in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft, Kizer inked a four-year deal for $4.94 million. The rookie contract included $2.42 million guaranteed and a $1.73 signing bonus.

Kizer started 15 games as a rookie for the Browns' winless 2017 season, going 0-15. The 6-foot-4, 235-pounder completed 255 of 476 passes (53.6 percent) passes for 2,894 yards and 11 touchdowns to 22 interceptions.

A two-year starter at Notre Dame, Kizer went to the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis and ran a 40-yard-dash time of 4.83 seconds. He rounded out his workout with measurements that included 9 7/8-inch hands.

Kizer declared for the 2017 draft after his junior season with the Fighting Irish in 2016. In 12 games, Kizer completed 212 of 361 passes (58.7 percent) for 2,925 yards and 26 touchdowns to nine interceptions. As a sophomore during the 2015 campaign, Kizer completed 210 of 334 passes (62.9 percent) for 2,880 yards and 21 touchdowns to 10 interceptions.

Entering the 2017 draft, NFL.com analyst Lance Zierlein was unsure of Kizer's overall ceiling. In a scouting report on the combine profile for Kizer, Zierlein made a point about the former Notre Dame signal-caller's inconsistencies.

"The aforementioned traits often land a quarterback in the first round, but Kizer's second-half drop in production combined with inconsistent decision-making and accuracy should be a speed bump for teams ready to jump in head-first on the traits," Zierlein said. "Kizer has the ability to become a quality starter, but has to improve his ball placement and field vision first."

A four-star recruit, Kizer took his talents from Toledo (Ohio) Central Catholic to the Irish in South Bend, Indiana. He was the 247Sports Composite's No. 242 overall prospect, No. 14 pro-style quarterback and No. 10 player in Ohio for the 2014 recruiting class.

Could be a good situation for him.

Another example of 4 for 40

Once upon a time, DeShone Kizer saw firsthand the value some brands captured in resale versus the initial sale. He became fascinated, dare we say, obsessed, with giving creators access to their secondary markets.

So, he & his co-founders created One of None.

One of None is a platform that enables creators to launch physical, digital, and hybrid pieces, bridging the gap between the Web2 & Web3 worlds. It allows Web3 collectors to attach more conventional value to their most treasured NFT pieces and traditional collectors to connect lasting value to their investments.

They are community-first, connecting collectors, artists, and fans who are all passionate about the intersection of physical experiences and emerging technology.

One of None is built for the collector who appreciates uniqueness as much as the creator who values the one-of-a-kind experiences that shape their art.

NFT's are an interesting investment. I hope it is legit (some are) and he does well. I own some tokens in a NFT marketplace and it is doing okay. But there is so much garbage and scammers that it is hard to know.
