They didn't win due to defense though. Howell lit them up like a Christmas tree.

Yes, but my point was Virginia is no pushover, and the staement that he struggled isn't true. I will take 21-30 for 322 in a game filled with rain and be happy with it. Oh, and King was without his top weapon.

Something about his throwing motion is weird and I can't quite pinpoint what. The motion is compact. The release is quick and decently high. But something just looks weird about it. 

his follow thru is like a pitcher or a serve in tennis.  he doesn't hang that arm out there after the ball comes out like rodgers or brady.

Yes, his mechanics need some work, but he's got such a strong arm! I'd like to see him sit for a season in the NFL while working with a good QB coach. He's got definite potential!

I think he is the 2nd QB taken after Lawrence, but that is for the Brady offense.

The Ohio State QB might be better for another teams offense.

He is not Mahomes, but as a pro, think he can be very good.

Unless Fields has a couple games where he bombs it’s going to be Lawrence and Fields in back to back picks to start the draft.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
