Nagy at the senior bowl is already singing his praises

This is the way That dude on Locked On Panther Podcast says he has a source in the building that says we are probably going to sign Armstead. Godalmighty we simply never learn our lesson if this is true

Tell me again why people think Fitt is some genius

Just curious but do you think that all of these scouts and analysts that have him as the 4rth or 5th in the rankings are not watching his film and they don’t know his circumstances this season?

Interested as in how? Trading our first next year to get him?

Alright, I just did a 15ish minute dive looking at this dude as I dont remember seeing anything from him last year. His highlight film is nice. He has a classic throwing motion eerily similar to Kerry Collins. He also has great size which I didnt know beforehand. He appears to have a strong arm and no problem throwing to the sidelines deep. He seems to process his reads rather quickly and dumps off when the heat gets a bit hot. He even had a couple of off platform throws that was nice to see. Yeah man he looks like a legit prospect although I dont see much in regards to his athleticism or ability to move out of the pocket which may be a red flag but I dont know. I just watched 2 videos, will definitely check him out next season.

The audio is horrible

^ his mechanics in that video are brutal. He throws off the wrong foot way more then he needs to. Can that be corrected, I dont know but its an issue as of right now

He hasnt won a game for us in a long long time. Thats not an above average starter bro

Now that ladies and gentlemen is one super sick burn. Next will come a "basement" joke for sure.

I am on record as to not wanting him but he had like 5-6 nfl throws in that video you just posted. I am not sure what ground zero should be for those types of throws but he made them against a good clemson defense. I dont think he is terrible but I would want a scout or someone to explain the extreme progression of play from his 4rth to 5th year. After that video I kindof like how he trusts his arm into making some of those throws. The 2 gloves thing scare the poo out of me but he isnt that bad of a prospect imo.

Yeah this isnt a hard concept what you are laying out. Not sure why he isnt understand this.

I aint going to lie but the throws at that minute mark are pretty damn impressive. He had throws to wr's, running backs and te. He certainly trusts his arm 219 6 725 910

why do you care?

dude...........

It’s the only feasible option. I keep seeing this vet qb signing hot take and my question is who? Who are we getting and why would we sign another vet to a multi year deal? Wtf is the point of that. Roll with darnold come hell or high water.

That’s your benchmark? Damn.

If we trade down how do we know the team trading to our spot isnt getting a qb? That would be insanity to trade back with that plan and then all of the talent is gone

but if the kicker had any sense at all wouldnt he be like "hold up, you want me to do what now? "

as it should be.

Shouldn’t the kicker ask the question under those circumstances?

Oline picks in the top 10ish are far less likely to bust. I already did a post on this detailing it.

That is literally the knock on him. He is incredibly uncomfortable under duress. I just posted 3 different scouts takes saying that. You guys want him behind this line?

That’s awesome to see a mod trolling on here. Simply awesome. But please by all means tell me how I need to back off lol.

From the Athletic, this scares the poo out of me from him along with his size. He gets really uncomfortable in the pocket under duress. Can you coach that out of him? I dont know but its a huge concern as of right now: Chris Burke: As you said, there are quite a few things to like – he’s got the arm to challenge all over the field, he’s dangerous with his feet, he’s tough. It’s strange, though, because I’ve come out of his film cut-ups wanting him both to speed things up and slow things down, if that makes any sense. I’ll try to explain further, in case it doesn’t: His initial instinct on a lot of plays is to get out of the pocket and run, so an NFL coaching staff will need to get him to stick with his progressions longer. But, flip side, when he does hang in the pocket, it tends to get belabored. If you compare his footwork to that of, say, Matt Corral, everything happens a lot quicker with Corral. So, I’m curious to see how he looks next week. Can he keep progressing as a passer? What do you think so far? Baumgardner: His scrambling makes me nervous and his apparent instinct to bail early up the field – and not to find another space in the pocket to make a throw – also makes me nervous. I think he sees the field better than some give him credit for. Some of the offense he played in at North Carolina plays into that, as he ran a ton of RPOs and was asked to make a bunch of run reads that were tagged with pass concepts. So, he can process – it’s just a little bit different. But … he is not comfortable in the pocket. That’s what I keep coming away with and I’m super curious to see if that, in 2021, was the result of a guy trying to do everything for a flawed team – or just something he has to overcome as a player. I like his courage. I like his arm. All the good parts about Baker Mayfield are in there. A lot of the bad is, too. The inconsistency and lack of improv skills in the pocket from a passing sense are two things I have a hard time shaking. But I still think he’s talented. Can you tame a guy like this? That’s kind of what it feels like, right? Can you break some bad habits and get him into a good spot? Burke: You’re gonna hear that Mayfield comparison a lot, and it’s because Howell legitimately looks like Mayfield in the pocket. The movements, the decision-making – it’s all familiar. I’m glad you brought up the lack of improv skills, though. I pulled out this play from North Carolina’s game against Notre Dame in 2020 to touch on that point … The first one in that video got called back by a hold, but ignore that. The bigger point is that it’s hard to find plays like this, in which Howell makes something happen out of structure with his arm. He’s usually off and running by this point, so – as you said – can you dial that back and teach him to be more patient? The second play is what you want to see: Letting the pocket protect him, scanning through his options, delivering a strike for a big play. Baumgardner: He’s a tricky one for me and I think the more I watch the more I land on the fact he needs to go somewhere with time. The Lions have time to offer. If they draft a quarterback this year (they don’t have to), that guy doesn’t have to start next season. Maybe even the year after, who knows. So from that standpoint, I like it – because I think, yes, in time you can adjust some of those instincts (because they come from a good place) to make that throw you just clipped far more regular than some of the bail-out runs we see where he wants to put a shoulder throw a 250-pound linebacker. How much do I like it? That’s the ultimate question. Right now, there’s no way he’s in the conversation at No. 2 and I’m not sure where others slot him. Specifically with Detroit: Do you see a fit there? Burke: No, not at 2. That said, I do think they could make Howell work with this offense, because he’s done a ton off RPOs and the pocket can roll wherever you’d want it to roll. Big week coming for him.
