The 'who have you watched lately?' thread.

As a Sooner fan watching a lot of Baker Mayfield. Needs a good line but could be a late 1st round pick
Just got around to watching the Big 12 Championship Game. Mayfield's accuracy puts Kizer's to shame. Great pocket mobility and awareness. I'm sold on the guy. One of several QBs we're going to seriously consider.

Totally agree Hoorta! He's been a lot of fun to watch the last 2 years. This year he has 41 TDs to just 5 INTs and last year he had 40 TDs to 8 INTs. There's a few fans in a massive hurry to stereotype him to being the next Colt McCoy with no chance he can resemble a Drew Brees, Joe Theisman, Warren Moon or Russell Wilson. It's nice to watch a QB that knows where everyone is supposed to be often hitting them in stride or throwing people open when necessary. That's how you get YAC instead of the YUCK we keep seeing here. A QB with consistent accuracy gives his team a better chance to win. That's why guys like Mayfield and Watson could beat an Ohio State defensive roster loaded with NFL prospects.
After watching Weeden's and Kizer's arm strength rendered useless to a lack of vision and depth perception - I'm still not convinced either guy can throw a football into Lake Erie from the wet rocks touching it. After leading ND to a 4-8 seson last year, Kizer's coach tried to warn Kizer and NFL teams he wasn't ready for the NFL. It would have been nice if someone in our FO freakin listened....

I'm just wondering what the excuses will be when the wonderboy becomes the next undersized scrambler to flame out in the NFL.
Our coach and GM, DUH!

Undersized scrambler like Russell Wilson? That's who I think of when I see Mayfield play. They're built very similarly. Manziel looked tiny out there..like a HS kid. Mayfield just passes the eye test much better imo.
Will be a very interesting draft. like every year, but maybe they finally get it right next year. It has to happen eventually.
Side note- I feel like Kizer will have 1 game where it just all clicks, and they'll likely win that game. He has started to look good for 3/4 of a game.

Get that hideous logo out of here please.

Style wise I agree with the Wilson comp, but I don't see Russell's discipline.
Agree that we will win one and Kizer will be key to that win.

I hope you're right about the 2nd point. I'd like to see Kizer be the key to a win. It's not his fault he shouldn't have been starting this year but he's put up with all the nonsense and gotten better as the season has gone on, still not good enough to avoid a #1 overall QB pick next season, but he has improved.
If we draft Mayfield....I'd love to see him be the next Russell Wilson both on and off the field....if we don't draft him, I hope he becomes Johnny Manzidiot v 2.0.

I think the question right now is Fitzpatrick or James.

Mo Hurst, Rashad Penny & Marcus Allen on deck and queued in that order. Already watched some Mo vs Penn State and (very drunkenly) vs the Bucks as well. Looking forward to more.

Oh, let me know when you do that one. I want to give my thoughts too.
"OSU bias".... that good?

At #1 overall?
Marcus Allen
Is this "junior"?

I think they may be talking DB with the Houston pick.
And no, I don't think he is Jr....in that he is the son of the HOFer Marcus Allen. Just a name coincidence.
(btw the Steeler TE is NOT to my knowledge any actual relation to the outlaw Jesse James...nor is Whitney Mercilus any relation to Ming the Mercyless).

I've offered this the past couple years but it makes sense now seeing as how the weather is trash and I have a long weekend.
If anyone is up for a joint viewing/evaluation - this is that yearly offer. We can use several different programs, all you need is a computer and (preferably) a mic. We can use go-to-meeting, discord or Skype. This time around we'll be taking a look at Mo Hurst and maybe Rashad Penny.
Anyone is welcomed. Not sure of the day between Friday, Saturday or Sunday but should there be any interest we can figure that out later.

He threw two great blocks to spring a kick return too

Checking in watching this here Fiesta Bowl.
Keeping my eye on
