I coulda sworn a year or 2 ago Fromm was considered the next big thing at QB.
Does anyone else think it’s funny that there’s a Tua and a Fromm in this years’ QB draft class?
But...he is not wearing khakis.

I can get Fromm's case to go Day 1 more than I can Herbert's. The latter makes more WTF? throws than any "top prospect" in recent memory.

You wonder how this year's QB class compares with the recent classes of ready to go step in starters......or still the apparent gold standard of 1983?
They new kids on the block seen to be great RPO well trained ready to go players similar to the more recent RBs and WRs.
Even with the newer "soft" rules on the skill players you wonder if this new crop of run/pass quarterbacks will make it 10+ years? Maybe 5+?

Good question and good insight. I feel like we’ve been chomping at the bit for the multi-dimensional QB superstar since Michael Vick. He was the first guy l recall who was going to transform the NFL with his arm and his legs.
But l think the “effectiveness to shelf life” ratio wasn’t there, nor was it for RG3. But what about Cam Newton? And Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson?
Michael Vick was drafted 20 years ago, but it planted a seed. We could very well be on the dawn of it, where the superstar do it all QB becomes a thing in the pro game, but how long do they last and how many are behind them to replace them?

... and how many are behind them to replace them?
Plus how many accomplished, conventional, pocket passers will there be to choose from?
The RPO is so much easier to teach at every position that it's dominant at every level except the NFL.

Similar to the old wishbone, flexbone and triple option offenses which teams like NAVY, AF and really very few others run well today.
Your quarterback is the key and it's really hard to prepare for it you don't see many or any on your schedule.
The only problem is that your quarterback takes a beating and if he goes out you need a good backup or your offense must go to plan B, quick.
You might get by with it in college -but- in the pros everyone is bigger, faster, stronger and hit harder and it's just a matter of time before your QB is in the medical tent.
That's why the pros prefer the quick drop back quick release quarterbacks that can do everything......if you can find one, the franchise QBs.

Evening, friends. It's Dry-Uary for myself and I have to be up tomorrow to meet family, so I'll be spending the weekend with the classic R&R, putting on some music and watching tape. Going to circle back around to Bravvion Roy, DI, Texas tonight. Feel free to tag along.

Roy vs Texas
Love this kids eyes when he's on a block. He looks good playing a shade, better than a classic heads up nose IMHO. He also has a strong base but light feet as a big man. Looks to use his arms when firing into initial contact as opposed to most guys that size who just go banging around down low body contact first. (Another kid with quick feet who couldn't put it together was Xavier Cooper) Bravvion doesn't look to have those eyes, hands, feet sync issue.
I also like that his feet don't stop moving as he is working through blockers and crashing down the line. When he's singled up on the center he won quite a bit and at worst would continuously control his man, then look to disengage and secure a tackle.
I'm all about the bigger body interior pluggers mid to late round. So far, between the Oklahoma, WVU and Texas tape, Roy continues to have me hoping that the Browns keep an eye on his draft stock, combine performance, etc etc. There is nothing sexy about his game, it's just nasty, down low, trenches type football. This Dline could use a good deal of that on quality rotation up the middle.

Putting a bookmark on Bravvion until more cutups are available or I can budget more hours to go through and time stamp whole games. Keeping with a theme on the line play though and looking at a kid I've seen mocked to the Brownies in a few spots. Although I've seen he hasn't declared yet. Still - Tristan Wirfs, RT for Iowa.
I watched all the way through twice with no stops and took mental notes before I put pencil to paper. First thought based on this game alone... Man, was I really underwhelmed by his pass pro.

Oh shit... cause so far I'm coming away with the same impression of the other LT "stud" in this draft... UGA's Andrew Thomas... actually reminded me of Robinson... ?
I'm liking the pursuing of Colts' UFA, LT, Anthony Costonzo, more and more. He ain't great and we'd have to overpay, but he's very good and dependable. In 9 seasons he's missed 12 games total.

That’s not good as Wisconsin DE (Baun) who we need to look at is an AFC North type Edge rusher. In the Mold of a Watt/Dupree.
Michigan, USC would be other film that would be interesting.Come to think of it Penn state too.

There was a rumor that Costonzo could retire. He’d be ideal though with a day 1 or day 2 pick serving as an apprentice
