The 2022 NFL Draft QB class is giving off 2013 vibes

You draft OL in the first if it’s a can’t miss prospect, and you take your lumps next season. The next draft is when you get your QB. In the meantime, you try to convince players like Riddick and DJ to stay. This team has talent, but you need a QB and line to be successful in this league.

You do that, or you bet the farm on an established top 5 QB like Watson, but I don’t know if he’ll want to come here now.

Wrong already addressed this.

 

Hes been the most efficient QB in the nation this season. While missing his top 3 WR and battling two sprained ankles. Do you even watch college football????

 

Corral actually known for his arm strength, he had the strongest arm in his class. Won a HS competition. There’s ton of tape of him throwing 60 yards out there. Lol

HS competition to NFL is laughable.

 

and lobbing a 60 yarder isn’t necessarily “arm Strength”.

there’s plenty of tape of Will Grier, even Teddy doing stuff like that.

Arm Talent is being able to put it through tight windows with velocity.

Corral arm has never been in question, ever.

Lots of guys can throw 60 yards but I never questioned his arm strength.

Literally 2 of those passes just pointed to what I said just lobbing a 60 yards pas.  There’s plenty of clips of Will Grier, etc doing this in college.  The Louisville one was nice, and that was his best game all year.  But he hasn’t been consistent making those passes all year.
Arm Talent is constantly making passes like that Louisville one all the time. Not 1 or 2 every few games.

 To me he is Sam Darnold minus the turnovers.  
 

His 2020 season was dam near a split near image of Darnold’s.  The Turnovers, decision making.  The way he sets his feet (or lack of) with the slight bounce, etc.

 

i mean literally if we’re just talking him throwing deep shots.  And you just said he is better than Fields

The thing is I remember how peeps talked about Allen, Mahomes, & Herbert in their draft classes. Still remember a crowd wanting Gabbert (along with Dareus and PP) over Cam.  I've also seen a lot of wishing Herbert fell but people wanted to avoid him like the plague on here.

And I'm sorry but Mac Jones, Zach Wilson, & Justin Fields don't look that special, and you can typically at least parse out the busts vs. needing time folks by now.

Looking at Pickett, Howell, & Strong for example...I mean, there's not some steep differential in looking at other years.  Honestly, last year looks like crap right meow.

Willis, Corral, Ridder, etc. are indeed gambles but there's a few that could play pretty quickly IMO.  NFL arms, with great deep ball accuracy.  

I will reserve judgement on this class.  If Strong didn't have his knee history, he's #1 hands down even considering his average/slower mobility.

You either take the chance or wait for a diamond in the rough while building the rest.    I think there's 5 who's potential warrants top-30 picks, 3 of them could play fairly quickly.

He’s nothing like Darnold or Grier. Grier has a water pistol, and needs to contort his arm just to throw it 50 yards, Corral is a effortless thrower. If you can’t see that idk what to tell you.

Darnold never cleaned up his turnovers at USC and progressively got worse with the number 2 recruiting class in the country. Corral has cleaned up his turnovers to the point of being the most efficient QB in the country, Ole Miss does not have USC talent. Kiffin has been inclining Corral is the most talented QB he has ever coached and he’s coached a ton of QBs.

 

He’s the real deal

Kiffin is building up his QB as any smart coach should but it appears you have sold yourself on Corral for some reason.  As a possible #1 pick he is extremely risky considering what he is right now.  Talent is there but he will need a lot of time and patience.

    • I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.
    • It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!
    • I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
