Critical on the mechanics and the crew seems to agree. Harsh comparison too. 
 

if Fields runs a 4.2-4.3, you still taking Lance over Fields?

As long as the qb doesn't run super slow I don't think speed is what's going to make them a qb or not. There seems little chance Lance goes ahead of Fields. Nothing in their stories suggests that's a real thing. 

Fields played bug boy football while Lance barely threw the ball in minor league

Honestly, some footwork mechanics isn't a huge flaw. Kinda like how few WRs come into the league with a full route tree, few QBs come into the league with flawless mechanics that won't need some refining. 

I agree, but as he said in the video... Can a team find the QB's flaw and correct it before opposing DCs find that flaw and exploit it. That little hitch might only add half a second to a QBs release time, but that make a monstrous opportunity for the defense. 

Do we have a QB coach who can fix that kind of flaw? Can he actually spot and assess flaws, much less correct them. Will the QB himself be willing to put in the time to correct something, because it is not an overnight fix?

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
