I have seen Mac Jones in few games this season and I like what I see.  He’s smart.  He takes what defenses give him.  He would dink and dunk and then hit a big one.

Mac Jones is methodical.  He's a Bill Belichick guy if there ever was one.  I could very well see him up in Boston next season.

I mean ... if you're getting giddy over Lance and his one huge season ... why not give the same giddyness to Mac and his one huge season? I don't think we should draft him, mind you. But I think he's better than some in here say he is.

I’m not giddy over either one of them but Lance has a bigger arm and is a far superior runner. People are enamored with his physical traits.

Ben Roethlisberger was neither throughout his career, but when he was younger, even he had some noted mobility. Now that he's lost it, he is not the QB that he once was.

You're trying to pretend like Mac Jones has shown some mobility, when he absolutely hasnct, and that's one of the knocks on his game as compared to Lawrence, Fields, Lance and Wilson. 

what does Ben roethlisberger have to do with mac Jones, that's still a definition of "mobility" centered exclusively around physical attributes, were talking about a Matt ryan breed of prospect with high tier processing and efficiency of movement

these traits are still highly coveted by organizations, and ultimately supersede the ability to run or boot between the whistles

Even I think Teddy could do damage if we had time to develop or sign five elite offensive lineman. 

Smith would have had to do a figure 8 around that LB and caught the ball falling out of bounds if Teddy was throwing him that last TD pass. Teddy's had plenty good protection at times and still flubbed those long throws. 

Teddy had 3 WRs who played very well and made him look better than he is. That sounds similar, but Jones just slowed Smith down a little compared to Teddy making his WRs come to complete stops or run out of bounds.

Jones is projected to go in the 1st-2nd round. I’ve seen many mock drafts having him in the 1st round. Very few had him in the 2nd. The Notre Dame game and this game tonight will just solidify him even more to go in the 1st round. You have no clue what you’re talking about. Just hating Jones because he’s another white kid playing QB at Alabama under Saban. 

The last line is stupid. Be better than that.

Tua and Jalen were white?

Why stop there? Wilson is a one season wonder too! Maybe even go ask all the professional scouts too, the ones that have Lance as a day one prospect, possibly top 10,

I don’t disagree with any of this. I’m just pointing out elite lines would give him more time to throw and make reads. He made a lot of poor ones under pressure towards the end of games. I don’t want Teddy here.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
