Watched film of all the top QBs: Zach Wilson screams Mitch Trubisky but Trey Lance has some Mahomes vibes

Mahomes was a prolific college passer in every way.

 Lance went over 200 yards only 3 times in his college career and was 33rd in the FCS in passing yards and 72nd in attempts. Thats just plain raw. He is a big athlete who occasionally threw deep balls to wide open receivers.

I've seen Lance make some throws in tight windows that should've been caught. Yes, he is raw, but I suspect that his numbers will skyrocket with his development and better weapons and protection.

You hope and wish. Thats not adequate for top 10 IMO.

If a QB is your guy, you have to get him, whether it's top 10 or top 32. I realize that there are opportunity costs in perhaps losing out on a day-one sure-thing at another position, but if you believe that a potential QB is a surefire starter on day one, in a half of a season or a season, you can't play draft games, you get him!

Trey Lance never lost and NDSU was usually blowing out their competition, so he isn’t going to continue to air it out and rack up yards. Definitely makes his sample size smaller than a lot of people are comfortable with. I would like to see his stats compared to Cam’s at Blinn College or Wentz’s his first year starting for NDSU. It would give a good idea as to how he compares to NFL QBs who played against lower competition like his did. He is going to be about as raw as it gets for a first round QB, but he checks a lot of boxes (arm strength, intelligence, leadership, athletic ability). If our staff is worth the money we are paying them, they should be able to shape him into a good starting QB, with a huge amount of untapped potential.

      The Dowdle Mirage - Play Calling Problems

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      They're pretty far off, double T-Mac's stats to get to the same targets as XL and it would be 4 drops to 7.  A 3 drop difference might not sound like a lot, but it's still almost twice as many drops on the same number of targets. Not to mention, if I remember correctly, XL's drop problems last year seemed more down field, where he was dropping passes he should be making and it was clear his poor hands were there reason he dropped them. And weren't both of T-Mac's drops this year on quick hitters with blockers out in front of him?  I know at least the second one was as he was going to go for a huge play and maybe a TD on it. To me, and yes, I'd say this about any other player, those are drops because a rookie was trying to do too much in making a play before securing the catch.  Much easier to improve upon than dropping passes because you have bricks for hands and body catch more often than hands catch, like with XL. And yes, 100%, which is why I wasn't one of those people you were referring to with talking about him that way last year.  Yes, I said he had drop problems., because he did, but I didn't think they were unsolvable and expected to see great improvement this year (unfortunately not sure that happened though).

      Every iffy call has gone the way of the Chiefs tonight, per usual. They had a TD earlier tonight that looked like obvious offensive pass interference and the flag was throw but picked up.
