If height is his only weakness these QBs make your argument invalid. He is the same height as Baker with more weight on him. Taller than Brees, Russ, Murray, one inch shorter than Lamar with 10 more pounds, and one inch shorter than Aaron Rodgers. So it’s a dumb argument. 

A. He's listed at 6'1

That means he could be 5'10 in actuality. 

 

Russ and Drew are exceptions.

This hints at lack of arm talent. 

 

Although he exhibits great accuracy, Howell needs to be more consistent. There were too many examples in the games studied where he underthrew, overthrew, or was wide of his intended target. This is potentially due to him trying too hard to generate velocity on passes, particularly further down the field and when trying to thread passes into tighter windows.

If he is to develop into a top-tier quarterback at the NFL level, Howell will need to read the entire field. He often locks onto one side, which results in him forcing throws to receivers that aren’t viable options.

It actually does not. Overthrowing and underthrowing targets is just him being out of sync or not having his feet set. All the sites I see are high on his arm stating he can make all the throws. Learning the read the whole field would be his weakness. That’s concerning because of what we have in Darnold.

He has an average NFL arm. His inconsistencies with throwing are likely the result of the myriad of mechanical issues with his throws. He needs a lot of polish to fix some of the bad habits he has.

Howell is only being discussed because of how weak this QB draft is. He is realistically a 2nd or 3rd round QB.

No it doesn't, also what is it from?

I’d like to see us trade back out of our top 5 pick and draft someone like Malik Willis from Liberty and then take interior offensive lineman with our next 3 picks. Hopefully we can figure LT out with a trade or signing a FA. 

I would warn anyone who is a big fan of Willis to go look at his performances in losses. It isn't pretty.

      Travis Hunter on T-Mac

      By Seltzer · Posted

      T-Mac put up good numbers for 3 consecutive seasons on teams without a good QB situation, and in an environment where T-Mac got game planned against weekly and still performed. Teams threw all kinds of defensive coverages against T-Mac, and he still found ways week in and week out to contribute at a high level. XL was basically a 1-year wonder. Doesn't mean he cant be great (and I think him & T-Mac will compliment each other well), but i think T-Mac is the more polished of the 2 right now. This certainly isn't a perfect comparison, but I hope XL & T-Mac can approximate what we had with Smitty & Moose (Although i think T-Macs ceiling is higher than Moose and XLs ceiling is lower than Smitty). Both those guys were multiple Pro Bowlers and even All-Pro. T-Mac & XL have a long way to go to actually being comparable, but the potential is there. And regardless of how this season turns out, you can actually see a strategic plan being executed. On paper, I think this offensive roster has as much talent as any Panthers team since 2017. Defense is still a question mark, and it's unrealistic to think we will go from being historically bad to great in 1 year, but based on historical and statistical data, we stand a much better chance of turning the defense around in 1 year than the offense. I still want us to potentially add at S, CB, and ILB, but this roster is exponentially better than the roster heading into the 2023 season. Which still begs the question of how & why the team thought they were in a good position to trade all the way up. Regardless, it's in the past, and while the past 2 years have mostly sucked, we are strategically in a much better position than we have been in years. This is easily the best WR group since 2020 IMO (Moore, Anderson, Samuel). I'm super excited about what T-Mac can bring to this offense and team, and I'm really hoping we continue to build off where we ended last year offensively, and hopefully we've made enough improvements on defense to be competitive. I've also been vocal for the most part in supporting BY9. He came into an awful situation and to a team that was in no position to make such a trade.   Still, this is Year 3. And this is a team that IMHO has both the talent & depth on offense to score and score a lot. Most QBs that ever amount to anything are competing by Year 3. There are no excuses for the offense not to perform. I think BY9 knows full well what's riding on this year in terms of his long term future.  And I think T-Mac is a massive piece in helping Bryce and the team get over the hump and back into playoff contention.
