That is absolutely not true. Google the one scouting report that exists for him from college. His one attribute was arm strength lol

Maybe old man AZ Warner.   

Mac Jones arm is more Chad Pennington than Kurt Warner IMO.

I can only assume many here weren't following the NFL in the decade of 2000 becuase it was commonly said that Warner was great with anticipation and accuracy vs arm strength.

From his own GM

Quote

 

Keim remembers such a quarterback he once had with the Cardinals. His name was Kurt Warner, whose career also earned him a spot in Canton, Ohio.

“Kurt didn’t have the biggest arm, he didn’t always throw the tightest spiral,” the GM said. “But he had this rare anticipation and that made up for all those things.”

After a full season of watching what we had behind center last year I just want to see a quarterback capable and willing to move the ball. In that aspect particularly when it counts.

All that matters is if he can help the team. Draft talk is hindered greatly by petty bias revolving around whichever college a prospect played for. This franchise is not at all in a position to be very picky. The uphill battle for regaining competitiveness within the division is one that will take time no matter which route we decide to take at quarterback. Make sure we get the right football player and leave all the other nonsense at the door.

Am I misremembering all those bombs to Holt and Bruce?

Or all those deep outs?

Brees can’t scramble but I don’t think I would call him immobile. His pocket movement has always been incredible.

The same with Jones. They compare actually favorably and some folks think New Orleans may move up if they can't land Wilson.

I wasn't referring to just this season.  Alabama usually has more talent than any team they face, regardless of the season. Its always more difficult to assess their ability to play in the NFL.  Of course, because they get so much talent, they get more players in the NFL.  Which is why I would never want to be an NFL scout.  

I understand the quandary for sure!

Warner didn't take a snap until 27 basically. As a Ram he had a great arm, and the lone scouting report of him gave him top grades for his arm strength. Whether or not his arm strength was elite it was above average.

It's not just mobility though. It's also arm strength. If he had a cannon of an arm he'd still be considered a top prospect even with serious mobility concerns.

Brees has never had a cannon of an arm. Neither has Brady. Neither did Montana.

38 year old Super Bowl/Cardinal Warner might not of had a cannon.  

Greatest Show on Turf Warner most definitely did not have a Chad Pennington arm.

I don't understand why people try to compare Brady in college to any modern prospect.  There's no point.  Part of Brady's story, as we all know, is the pact he made with the devil after the NFL draft to go from a seemingly mediocre college QB to a God among NFL players.

👹 "You weren't suppose to tell anyone about that!"

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
