His stock is rising, according to what I am reading .  Brady might be looking for a QB to develop.  Based on the little I know about him--which is probably more than most of you know about him, he could be a diamond in the rough.  I do not understand the interest or what they are looking for, but do not be surprised if they draft him on day 3.

I'm keeping my eye on the FIU QB James Morgan.  Traditional pocket QB with a hair-trigger release and a big arm.  Not Josh Allen big, but really good.  He's a late round prospect now, and hopefully he stays there.  I wouldn't go higher than the 6th for him considering all our roster needs.  Transferred midway through his college career form one mid-major school to another, neither program noteworthy.  He has touch, good anticipation, nice deep ball, arm strength for deep out routes and can thread the needle with velocity when needed. Grew up in Green Bay idolizing Favre and Rogers; has a similar gunslinger mentality. I see a diamond in the rough with him.  Joe Brady could work wonders with a guy like him.

Called it.

It will if you keep acting like a belligerent step dad because someone's opinion hurt your precious feelings.

He looked good at the combine.  Nice arm.  No idea about the intangibles.

As explained above dude, you're not important enough in my real life to hurt my feelings. Guessing you missed that.

And like I said, I'm having a good day. Probably won't be on here all that long, though (other plans).

Did he do any of the all star games?

This "take a quarterback" to say we did approach got us Will Grier. And I have to be brutally honest, I still haven't forgiven a number of huddlers for pushing for that guy so badly. They act like they never did too. So many hazy memories about that now. If we need another QB we can take one in 2021. Don't just throwaway another pick in a half ass attempt this year.

 Now thats funny.

It sounds like you've seen more of the kid than I have. I wasn't clear on one thing though. How soon would you expect him to be ready to start?

It's the nuances of the game.  He has all the arm talent you need.  So reading what the defense is try to show him or what they want him to see.  Understanding the cat and mouse game at this level.  I mean Brady was able to turn Burrow's game around in a year, but I would anticipate sitting two years and ready to start in year three.

Probably won't be on here that long says the guy closing in on one hundred thousand posts

E-W I think.

Valid. To be fair though (at least from what I've read) Brady was able to restructure the game because he knew Burrow was already good at reading the defense and making quick decisions.

there is absolutely no reason whatsoever for a team in our position to take a QB outside the top 10. There's almost no reason for any team to ever do it.

The whole "flip a guy for a higher pick" thing is for teams that have stuff figured out. 

It's a stupid, wasted pick that the team wants to make because NFL jingoists say it's "always a good idea to be developing somebody there."

 But it isn't really. 

If we are an analytics team now, then why are we even considering taking mid to late round Quarterbacks? The analytics say there's no incentive to do so. Maybe its a misdirect to sell the notion we aren't considering an early round QB when in actuality we are, But color me skeptical.

If it were up to you last year he’d be on the roster starting for the next 10 years.

Yes--because people often decide who starts for 10 years. Again, one of the many posters here who are obsessed with me--I could not tell you one thing you have ever posted.  Never.  Don't care.
