    Seems like the defensive coordinators figure guys out. 

    Which is why I don't want a QB in the draft who is a better athlete than a QB.

    At the end of the day, QBs who last a long time in the NFL are the ones who can stand in the pocket, read defenses and make the smart throw. Guys who got far in high school and college off their athleticism tend to level out in the NFL because they never had to actually learn the Xs and Os of playing QB. Their covered that part with their legs.

    The college game also doesn’t let the QB call the plays in a huddle. They all look to the sideline for the calls. 
    Plus the college game doesn’t produce those pocket guys anymore. They are almost all dual threat guys

    That is true.

    That's why it is important to get with the college QBs and see who you think could do it. Who can read defenses. Who can play under center and not shit their knickers when they have to turn their back to the opposing defenses during play fakes, etc.

    Makes QB evaluation even harder.

    I do not mind a runner as long as he can throw intelligently and accurately  But he must be able to THROW

  • Once again HE WONT THROW THE BALL

  • Finally a 3rd down conversion 

  • Nice Pierre

  • As if getting sacked wasn’t enough, we have to get a delay of game penalty

    Need a QB that isn’t going to run RPO. If he can escape fine, but having designed Qb runs I don’t like

    Right now we have  a QB who cannot throw.  No offense (even a wishbone )works with that

    True

  • This team just cannot tolerate 3rd and anything less than 10

    I want a coach that won’t call that crap. Even if the QB can do it

    They don't run the wishbone, they run the triple option.

    Naming him as the guy you want specifically doesn't make sense then.

    He's still an athlete who gets by with his athleticism more than his arm and head. 

    And dog knows 99% of teams aren't patient enough with rookie QBs to let them sit for a season or so before putting them out of the field, so...

    I don’t think he will be running in that The pros. He only averages 4 yards per rush in college.

    And he can make all the throws a pro a needs to make. I don’t l know about his processing and reading defenses, because most college guys don’t get asked to do that often
