Well, well, well. Zach Wilson is playing Coastal Carolina on Saturday 12/5 at 5:30 PM ESPNU.

Has nothing to do with TB, I think people are just skeptical giving the 7ish overall pick in the draft for a QB that hasn’t really played solid competition in college...not to mention his athletic oline that allows him to do a lot.

Also keep in mind spending that kind of investment on Wilson, if it doesn’t work out, sets progress back 2-3 years easily.

If we had a decent team that needed and upgrade at QB would I take the chance? Much much more likely. A team that needs an entire oline, secondary and LBs? Not so sure.

this byu would be ass ass without him. he's playing with future mormon grifters against a top 25 team across the country with 2 days notice.

Yeah I’m all on board now. You’d HAVE to let him sit behind Teddy a year though while we get OL addressed. But if 2022 serviceable OL, DJ, Robby, CMC, and whoever we replace Curtis with and I think he can do damage. We could stretch the field like never before while having DJ. Bum shoulder Cam and Teddy... DJ would pop off with this kid

His deep ball has had great velocity. It’s the shorter throws where I think he gets caught up trying to be perfect with “touch” when he’d be on just ripping it. His arm has been better than advertised. If we picked him there is definitely good things to work with. He’s still behind Lawrence and Fields for me but I think getting to watch him live more than once now has kind of entrenched him as my number 3 in front of Lance and then Trask.

Depends on what you're looking for.

If you're looking for a Superman, no he's not it.

If you're looking for a guy that can run an efficient offense, he's pretty good.

His frame concerns me, but his skills are there.

11 for 20 and under 200 yards is not impressive to me.  I know it is only one game, but I am just not that impressed.

His receiver did drop a 60 yarder. On the other hand his TD was a defensive botch as well. It all evens out. He has time for another drive or two to take over this game.

Didn’t watch the game but didn’t Trask just have a great game against Tennessee?

I watched it. He looked solid, but his weapons are very good. Toney and of course Pitts are going to be good NFL players. Trask seems like a smart player, he didn’t make many mistakes when his line didn’t hold up.

Looked pretty good on that final throw.

Regardless, a lot of the best quarterbacks in the NFL only have average arm strength, especially the ones who run West Coast systems.

That's not something I'm especially worried about.

I'm worried about it with a Top 10 pick.

If he's there in the 2nd round with that arm, sure, roll the dice. With a premium pick, I don't want to see the ball float that much. Especially with his backyard play style.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
