You have to balance that with the talent around him. One of the same issues Josh Allen had coming out iirc (beyond his accuracy of course)

Josh Allen is 6’6” 250 with a cannon. His problems could be overcome by size and not having to alter an offense to accommodate him. 

Willis has thrown 12 picks this year

2:1 TD:INT ratio. 

Corral’s TD: INT is 20:4 and has a huge arm.  I lien corral better

Day 2? You mean that day when we have no draft picks because of brilliant trades?

Exactly.

I'd love to hear whether or not scouts are finding the 2nd - 4th round prospects to be fairly close. I recall Fitterer saying that guys 26 - 100 (or 150?) were all round about the same impact-wise. If they had the foresight to ID a potentially weak 2nd & 3rd round, it makes the CJ Henderson trade even better (or the Sam Darnold trade even worse if it's a strong class).

Honestly, if Willis was playing in a P5 conference consistently facing good teams I think he'd be considered a late round flyer type of pick.

He had a hell of a year last year (yeah weak competition) and has some talent. Could be a boom or bust like Trey Lance (also looked bad against better competition), but without the size.

Yeah not huge on Willis. Corral, Pickett and Strong are my faves. Ridder and Howell not far behind. But Willis..I acknowledge the upside but his game v Corral was very underwhelming.. surrounding talent considered.

He has such a pretty and accurate deep ball though.  The downfield placement is hard to ignore IMO and that Nevada offense asks a lot of him.  More advanced than the typical college system.  Think he's hands down the best pure QB in the class.

Verge said NO man move on…lol

That's all we need to hear to know that he's actually a top 5 prospect. 😛

Every year around this time everyone says "this QB class is bad and we don't have a guy I would take in the top 10" or some nonsense. This class is fine, not as good as last year, but it has three guys with first round grades for me. Pickett and Willis clearly at the top.

People love to talk about how there isn't any consensus 1st overall type of QB, guess what?  We don't ahve the overall 1st pick.

This is a bad year to have the 1st overall pick and need a QB.  Usually if you have the 1st overall pick you are hoping for a Luck or Manning type of prospect.  There isn't that in this class.

Last year if you were picking 12th you would have ended up with the 5th QB off of the board, this year year maybe the 2nd.  There is a very good chacne thye could have similar type of scouting grades.

Good point. You could potentially get your number 1 rated QB at pick 8. If there was Lawrence in this class, you would have no chance…

It would not surprise me at all if some teams, us included, have similar grades on the top 1-2 QBs this year that they did on QBs 4 and 5 last year.  That doesn't guarantee these guys will work out, but purely from an evaluation standpoint the situations are similar.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
