With this regime, it doesn't seem to be the guys they talk about that we should be concerned over.  "I'm looking forward to working with and coaching Cam", etc.

Stories and leaks like this seem to be routine.  And frankly, they should be with a good staff - not that this staff will ever be accused of such.  But, a good staff should tailor the "leaks" to throw off their competition.

SO we pass on fields and go after Liberty's starting QB.  Seriously, I get it.  Willis has a lot of tools, just not sure he will adjust to the NFL as we all hope.  Fools gold?

Let me preface this with I have no clue if he will be good. Josh Allen played for Wyoming. Willis was at Auburn before transferring to Liberty. The Rams have backup named Bryce Perkins who transferred from Arizona State to UVa and lit it up. The Rams love him as a developmental QB. Burrow couldn't start at Ohio State and went to LSU and won the Heisman.

 

All that said, I hope we take an OT at 6. The point is, you just don't know. They say Willis is smart but 'normal' intelligence doesn't seem like that big of an issue (Ryan Fitzpatrick). I'm not sure how you figure out the part of them being able to process at the NFL speed or their 'want to' but just because he went to Liberty doesn't really matter in the long run. One benefit of drafting Willis may be that he is not ready and Rhule gets fire because we had to roll with Sam.

Willis’ arm is night and day stronger than Fields. He’s also a better athlete. He’s a bit short but he’s built nicely.

It would definitely feel like passing on Fields just to draft a poor man's Fields

He's not a "poor man's Fields." Much higher ceiling. I think Fields can be a solid starter, but I don't think he's ever a real difference maker. 

I was really against drafting Willis, but I am starting to come around to it. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders. The physical talent is great. He's got to learn how to make the "easy play" sometimes, but I think you have to swing for the fences if you're drafting a QB. I'd rather take a chance on being able to coach a guy to take the "easy play" rather than trying to squeeze more out of a guy than his physical talent allows.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By CRA · Posted

      So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves?  I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, I think Nike has it all down to a sweet mathematical science to max revenue of what they average person will buy in terms of price....and what the average person will do with a dirty jersey.   Then they construct them accordingly.   and yeah, it's not about being tackled in them but I'm sure Nike knows exactly how each tier will react to washings...and then sunlight, heat, fading and on and on.    Just asking google about it there are tons of tiktoks, you tubes, reddit posts, etc with folks complaining about what a simple wash can do to a new one.    Your washing machine gets cooler tech....so you pay more now and it doesn't last as long .  My son's football cleats that help max speed got a hole in them before they even made it into the season this past year.     Now our football jersey's are lightweight with new mesh because it's totally better.....the end game is always because the big corporations have found the synergy between new and improved and not lasting as long.  That's my take.  I think everything is made to wear out sooner under the guise of but it's better today.
