Wym??? If you think he can be a franchise QB you get him! We were about to give up the farm and tractor for DW drafting one at 6 isn’t an out of line idea. If you think Willis sucks and not worth it I guess I see your point but I *want* to draft a qb with our first pick. Whether that’s at 6 or in a trade back. 

First of all, woe to the kid who gets plopped into a lame duck coach’s last gasp.

That alone is enough.  Not to mention this crop of QBs is not a Day 1 starter class and I’m a Tar Heels fan.  Drafting a project at 6 and hoping poo pans out ain’t the way.

but hey I’m nobody.  I’ve just seen this movie before and the ending sucks.

Production gets you in the door, but traits and character get you drafted. 

It might get them drafted but it's not an indication they will make it in the NFL. Everyone gets hung up on the players that look the part but hasn't yet put it together. Coaches fall for that because they think they can make them a baller. My theory is that if they can't produce under pressure from the best competition in college then don't count on it in the NFL.  It's not going to happen in the NFL no matter how much fans think it will. The NFL doesn't suffer fools and my friends the Panthers are owned a ran by fools.

I just think he’d be worth the swing if we’re gonna do it. Otherwise just trade back and get as many picks as possible this year and especially next year.

Personally, not high on him.

He misses reads in favor of scrambling at unnecessary times, Accuracy is subpar, and he is not as fast or shifty as Lamar Jackson so I don't think he'll get away with what he does at the next level. 

In my opinion he looks like Johnny Manziel. Apparently complete polar opposite of a human though. So if you liked Manziel's potential you'll love Willis'. He has a better possibility of success based on his attitude alone.

    • He is "Keep Pounding." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45498715/nfl-carolina-panthers-chuba-hubbard-olympics-flag-football-track
    • This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one. 
    • I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
