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.

Kiffin has never hyped a QB this much. He knows he’s special. Idk where there is to doubt

 

Either way there’s no way we get him with how bad the lions are. I still think we should draft a QB first round. You always start with a QB

9 games this year, only 2 games with 3 or more passing touchdowns in a game. Only 3 games with 300+ passing yards in a game. 
 

He has been a good red zone runner. At 6’0 and 200 pounds even he isn’t going to be that type of runner in the pros. He’s a good college QB. He’s going to need time sitting in the pros.

In his defense, I believe his top 2-3 WRs have been hurt throughout the year. I know he was missing 2 for the UT game and 3 for Auburn.

Sam Howell has that backyard QB style and looks like Baker 2.0. Which in this class and our recent attempts to find a QB a Baker Mayfield would be a god send. He needs to learn to slide the running over Db's and LB's that he does right now is gonna get him killed in the pro's especially with our Oline.

This is the way I feel about just about every prospect but Pickett. And I still wouldn't take him in the first.

Watch the last two seasons. He rarely ran at all.  It's just been out of sheer necessity this year.

You know more about Howell than any of us I've only started to watch his 2021 film after the poo show yesterday. But why does he clap his hands before every snap? Seems like that would cause trouble for him in the pros.

It's the way the offense is signaled. Most college spread offenses do it. It's no different than the old lifting of the leg.

    • I'd edited to be more clear where he was ahead of league average, but realize it was easily missed, sorry.  I do hope he falls off a cliff production wise because if he actually continues at this pace it's highly likely the TDs come and then he'll be a real problem. Anyway, to the stats... Shough is substantially better than the average in completion percentage, YPG, and INT% (68% vs 64.4% and 237 vs 215 and 1.7 vs 2.2). He is pretty close to the average in Y/A (7.14 vs 7.1) and rating (91.63 vs 91.8). He is a bit below the average in TDs per game (1.3 vs ~1.5, which is hard to average exactly due to the number of players that are part of this stat), QBR (51.54 vs 54.7) and quite a bit below in TD% (3% vs 4.7%). In advanced stats, he's above the league average in intended air yards/attempt (8.1 v 7.7) and on target % (76.8 vs 74.6), while barely below is in bad throw % (16.1 vs 16.0). This jives with what I've seen - decent young player, playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter, on a bad team. I've always said (and this is true of Bryce too, I even mentioned it this year) that I am less concerned with 30+ yard bombs than consistency at 15+ yards, because you need to be able to threaten past the sticks. Shough is doing that. Vs us in week 15 he had ~one third of his passes 15ish or more yards and he was money on them, and that wasn't really an exception, he has had some nice throws outside of that.  All that said, dude is just super new to the league, and once film gets out, if he does have limitations they will be exploited. No way he can get OROTY. And thanks for the kind words - I am prone to hyperbole at times, but I'm also just impressed by Shough. We'll see if he can keep it up (I hope not, unless the Saints randomly trade him lol)
    • To be fair, going from 2 wins, to 5 wins, to 8 wins at least is a pretty big positive no matter how insufferably miserable a select handful in this group want to make everything.
    • Yeah Moore is definitely going to be a problem.  I remember he was the favorite for our job at one point in time.
