Stampede Blue on Josh Downs
From the article
At 25, he could realistically provide another five or six productive seasons, particularly given that his style of play relies heavily on route running, quickness and understanding defensive coverages rather than simply overpowering opponents...There is also reason to believe his statistical production could improve considerably in a more stable offensive environment.
STACKED’s take
Downs' age and skill set suggest five-plus productive seasons ahead, with upside for 1,000-yard seasons in stable offens
At 25 years old, Downs could realistically provide another five or six productive seasons; his style of play relies on route running, quickness, and understanding defensive coverages rather than overpowering opponents—qualities that remain effective as receivers approach their late 20s and early 30s. His statistical production could improve considerably in a more stable offensive environment; throughout his Indianapolis career he dealt with frequent quarterback changes and inconsistent passing attacks that limited opportunities despite demonstrating ability to create separation. In a more reliable passing game, he could approach or potentially surpass 1,000 receiving yards, especially with a larger target share.
