Orlovsky on Trey Lance

Ahh, the age old tearing down of guys.  Keep it up NFL types!  Break down Trey more and more.  Make him stick around to 8 so we can snag him 😃

Trey isn't ready to jump in feet first.  Instead, let him sit behind Bridgewater for a half a season or more.  Then let's get the machine rolling!

Nothing mentioned is KILLER.  All these QBs have flaws that need to be fixed.

Developing a QB is very, very different than developing a CB.  It's different honestly than any other position.  Those guys who can develop NFL QB's are rare, not nearly enough of them around.  I don't know if we have that guy on staff.  Joe Brady can construct a passing game, absolutely no doubt.  But that's still very different than developing a QB.

The fact that Lance is playing FCS football is already a strike.  It makes all that running he did frankly irrelevant to me.  If that's his NFL game, I don't want him.

If someone can fix those mechanics, great.  But even I could spot his flaws.  Lazy feet, inconsistent drops.  I hope our staff is better now, but we never fixed those things with our last franchise QB - also a physically talented runner - and we ruined him.  I don't want to see that ever again.

Lance is the number 4 QB in this draft.  He is a project QB and will need time. Usually these QBs go in the bottom half of the first round.  I am not big at taking him at 8, but we might have to because of the demand on QB.  In actuality I hope he is gone by 8 so we can dodge this bullet and get BPA at a position of need. There is a lot of teir 1 talent that can have an immediate impact on this team.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
