Trey Lance makes his last official CFB start Saturday vs Central Arkansas.

Not a great game for Lance. Rushing saved him a lot but he's not gonna be sustainable like that in the NFL. Beautiful deep ball but consistency and level of competition are valid concerns. 

If you draft him you like what he presents as a play and understand he's not a finished product at all. Biggest risk of the three QBs but a pretty high ceiling theoretically (all depends on how driven he us to improve at the position and not just rely on his gifts). Could probably play right away in a highly skilled offense (not ours lol) otherwise sit im'.

If his pre-draft goes well he's a top 5 pick at the highest. Right now I'd say he's in the 7-15 range. His floor is probably mid second like Kaep

If Love made it to the first round last year based on prior season stats, Lance is a lock for a 1st rounder. 

I would let another team make that mistake. Love at least had a ton of starts under his belt and I never thought he was a first rounder and all reports from Packers camp is this kid has a LONG way to go. Lance has way too many games where he doesn't even throw the ball 20 times for my liking.

I don't think Howell is a guy. He suffers from accuracy issues and that does not bode well for his NFL future.

Still just a sophomore, though. 

Wait until he hits his rhythm. Everything about that UNC offense looks out of sync right now. Protections are off. Timing is off. It's all rusty right now. That game cancellation didn't help. They'd only played one game before today and that was three weeks ago.

Could not the same thing be said about Trey Lance’s performance today? The last game they played was forever ago...

The defense was fine and the running game was good even if you took Lance out of it. The only thing not working for NDSU was their pass attack today. 
That said, Howell was a better looking passer today.

Eh. Last year he was the same way 50% on and 50% off. Hence his overall completion percentage. That is what I want to see from him, consistency. Yes there might be some rust but that was also the #12 team versus a traditional ACC basement dweller. Those are the games you really need to shine in and he didn't.

Like I said, two games in and a mixed bag. We will see how it goes the rest of the season.

He was a true freshman and UNC had a TON of drops last year.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
