lol look at his blockers (and I use the term loosely) chasing their guys from behind even on the brief highlight GIF. 

Everyone on that field is terrible. Willis is just the most physically gifted among them. He's an NFL caliber athlete playing against and with low level college talent. He's a man among boys. I could be wrong but I'll be shocked if it translates to the NFL and I definitely think you're setting the kid up to bust if you play him as a rookie.

He did good against VA Tech which I would imagine had superior athletes. I really like his maturity level and he seems humble. His arm is a strong NFL arm. I think he checks a lot of boxes if we can develop him right.

He checks a lot of boxes physically but hell, so does virtually everyone in 1st round consideration.

There’s no point to not tank and by tank I mean don’t make temporary 1 or 2 year deals meant to help you in 2022 only. Beating Washington in 2020 cost us getting SF’s three 1sts. Playing the AFC South (3-1, 2-10 against the others) in 2019 cost us Justin Herbert. I still get annoyed when people say draft slot doesn’t matter.

Whether Rhule will do it, who knows. If we lose Watson and go for Jimmy or Baker, we are just setting ourselves up for a few more 5-12 to 8-9 seasons.

A healthy CMC keeps this team out of the top 5 draft picks next year. That's part of the reason he has been sat when healthy at the end of the past two seasons IMO.

That dude is the Jake Delhomme of college football. Everybody wants to doubt him but when it's go time dudes a gamer.

He's not a good NFL prospect. Too small. Too many games where his numbers were propelled by short, safe completions. Same crap they did there with Tua. We better hope Stroud is legit or someone else emerges.

From what I’ve read he seems humble and is a hard worker. Give me that with those physical traits and it’s definitely worth a shot. I get the hesitation, I was also high on Trey Lance for similar reasons. You can’t coach/teach those physical traits and they both seem to have the intelligence and work ethic to be successful in this league. I would be ok with an OL as well, if there isn’t a QB we like.

I don't think he's an NFL prospect either but as a college QB? Yeah, the dude is underrated. I underrated him too. I thought he'd be the reason UGA ultimately came up short.

    • By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though 
    • Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.
    • That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
