    And my dark horse from A&M is DT Bobby Brown (if he comes out) 

    It's his prerogative. He can do what he wants to do (His prerogative).

    You going all Bobby Brown on us?

  • Did I click on the video and play it with the sound turned all the way up? Hell yes I did. 

    Now, here's a question because I've forgotten how to do it... How do you post videos? When I do it I just get the link, but how do you do it so it actually posts the video right there ready to go?

    And you likely put on your parachute pants...

    Simple copy/paste of the youtube vid's addy bar converts to the vid for me...

  • WalterFootball's more recent mock draft has the Browns taking WR Jaylen Waddle in Round 1, and the Steelers getting their QB of the future with Florida's Kyle Trask.

    Trask would be a good pick for them.

    Definitely in the Big Ben mold...

  • Someone on another thread mentioned McCarron...the former Alabama QB.  The name Greg McElroy also comes to mind.  Then there are the likes of  Tua and Hurts...other Alabama or former Bama QBs.

    Which brings also to my mind this Mac Jones.    Impressive stats for East Germany.....but then all these other   guys came from there as well. 

    I understand he is a favorite, or one of them for the Heisman.

    So, for the so called experts on here.....is there really anything about this guy to differentiate him from the other  Bama QBs such that he could actually be said in the same breath as Starr/Namath/Stabler......or is he a McCarron or McElroy type. 

  • PFF is a bit of a fan of mac jones - but that link and 3 bucks will buy you a coffee.

  • Jones reminds me of McCarron... a very functional cog in the BAMA machine.

    And it Looks like Tua is taking that same path.

  • On slight off topic note: 

    I thought the defense battled yesterday.  We missed some tackles didn’t pressure a lot but I thought they played well with what they had...changes are coming and those changes will probably come via draft.  We need to upgrade speed and maybe find an interior pass rusher and coverage guys of course.


    Now the off topic: Mack Wilson film study from the end of 2019-to present day.  Might be the worst tape you will see- any takers?  It surprises me that he played under Saban.

    Hilliard backpedaled in the first half, read a screen, split 2 blockers and still put the RB down for minimal gain.. Yeah, if he's still available in rd4, he's a good get.

    And the TFL to close out Q3. Hot.

    Figured I'd see you in this thread at some point.  Yes, I was thinking that when watching it live.  Hilliard is a high upside LB with great athletic ability who has had an up and down career.  But he's playing into a day 3 pick.

    He has had an up and down career due to injury though.  When he has gotten on the field the guy has played phenomenally. There are a lot of defensive guys who have been big in the last three games but I think Hilliard has had one of the biggest impacts. I'm so happy for the kid also. He never quit and I really hope he does get drafted by some team.

    Maybe it's just me... I'm higher on Jones than I was McCarron.   By a decent amount, to be honest.

    Well aware, but your best ability is availability.  Hilliards medical history is a big concern.

    I’m impressed by his ball placement.  The handful of Bama games I watched he gives his WRs, Backs and TEs every opportunity to YAC it up by putting the ball perfectly in a spot where they can catch and run.  
     

    But I want to see how he handles a little pressure in his face...getting off his spot...it’s coming with OSUs interior dline.

    That is the concern I have always had about both Bama and OSU QB's. They both are surrounded by 5* and high 4* HS best in states they come from players, so against most teams they play the QBs are not pressured that much. Willie Joe is one of the few who was able to make it decently in the NFL. along with Bart Starr, and Kenny Stabler, all Bama players. Tom Tupa from OSU was decent too......................as a punter. Am I missing any other OSU QB who was decent in the NFL?

    One of the reasons why I love small(er) school QBs.   At least, schools that don't have a pool of 5* talent around their QB.   Makes it a bit easier to see who really is the one elevating the play of the offenses.
