Honestly he has a ton of ability and a high ceiling. I wonder where he is currently projected? If we grab an elite OL, then Glass in the 4th/5th, I wouldn’t be mad…

I was hoping he get get on as a backup somewhere, but his arm didn’t look good at all…

Makes a profile just to get banned… Go find a new hobby.

The Darnold move was more of Rhule banking on himself, thinking he was the smartest coach in the league. No one else was that interested for a reason and we were basically bidding against ourselves. The his arrogance jumps to a $18.5 million extension because he was so confident he could “fix” a QB the league had already given up on… If McAdoo really liked Allen and Mahomes the best in their class, he is liking the higher risk/reward QBs. If he is having any influence and we are looking at QBs, Willis probably has his attention. Rhule might be still thinking he can fix Darnold…

You think Rhule is smart enough to move Chinn back to LB?

An entire offseason, plus most rookie QBs struggle at first. The only one who looked ok early was Mac last year in a “loaded” QB class (and he ran a basic run first offense). These scouts are looking at their mental and physical abilities and seeing if some of the best minds/coaches in sports can help mold them into NFL stars. I agree 100%.

Oh yeah we need one. We need a LB too, but we better not draft one of those at 6 either.

No YOU are a backup QB at best!

I don’t want a safety a 6 when we have so many holes and no 2nd/3rd pick. That would be awful…

Yeah he is a tough player.

Howell and Willis are slippery in the pocket.

That might be the most fair assessment I’ve read yet.

I believe it was Strong.

I’m watching the game. Pickett has been fine, Howell is getting sacked like his UNC OL is still blocking for him. Willis showed his speed/elusiveness will translate well. Pickett missed 0 passes and got a TD. (That’s considered good)

I mean he has been perfect… Again I don’t want us drafting him, but let’s be honest you weren’t going to give any of them credit today because you have been against this class from the beginning. Then again you said we could go safety at 6…

Not a Pickett fan, but he has been perfect 6/6 89 yards and a TD. Some people are going to criticize him no matter what he does. He reminds me of a more mobile Mac Jones, which isn’t really a bad thing.

A safety at 6 when we need a QB and OL? Wow I would be speechless, but then again Rhule is calling the shots…

The QB we should have drafted and the one I hope we will. ( I’m for Howell as well)

Lol that’s some deep poo there…

Fair enough. He definitely has the mental toughness, and work ethic that a rookie could learn from.

Willis is wired differently than Darnold. He is more of a alpha/leader while Darnold is more quiet/reserved. Players play harder for the stronger leaders like the energy Cam provided his first game back (granted it was short lived), but it’s also why the Bengals started playing better as a team once Burrow got in the locker room. I’m not saying Willis is on either of those player’s level, but he got Liberty energized playing well enough to beat a much stronger program in VA Tech. He does need work as a passer, but I don’t see him becoming a Darnold 2.0. Maybe Hurts 2.0 if he can’t progress as a passer?

Sleeping on a pile of cash and seeing what college is going to throw even more money next year when Carolina fires me and still owes me a ton of money. I can’t feel sorry for the man, but he is just out of his element in the NFL. Maybe he can get lucky like the Bengals coach and have a player save his NFL career, but I don’t see that happening…

If we bring back Cam (big if because he already says he wants to play for a contender), we should be able to take a Willis, Howell or Strong(not at 6 obviously) and let them sit a few games and learn. Honestly I’m not sure Cam is the best QB to learn behind though, he isn’t always fundamentally sound. The best scenario was keeping Teddy last year and drafting Fields to sit behind him. You know what they say about hindsight…

There is definitely truth to that, but look at what the Niners gave up to move to 3 and take Lance. I’ve obviously won’t get 3 firsts, but if we could get their 1st, 2nd, and next year’s 1st, it’s definitely something to consider…
