Owners and Coaches fan boy crush because of hometown love. One good season out of five. That won't cut it in the NFL. If we can avoid that self inflicted wound like drafting Zach Wils762648717_Screenshot_20220320-2332462.thumb.png.62bf057c2a3266aaea80363be64ebe07.pngon

 

 instead of Fields (58%comp on 270att) or Cheesy Mac Jones

 If we can avoid the trap laid by the establishment for dummy teams like the Jets who are always at the top of the draft picking the wrong QBs, totally following the hype. If we can find the guy in this draft who can play QB the best consistently not necessarily the best scrambler, your dime dropping Drew Brees efficient level guy we've got our next franchise QB.

Does picking Mac Jones say, #6 last year seem stupid now?

Look at Mac Jones' completion percentage his first year, a career average of 67%!

By the numbers and performance Mac was the best QB in that draft. Proof is in the pudding.

This year's Mac Jones?

His name is 6'4" laser guided bazooka arm 70%completion for two years consecutively, academic and football wiz kid Carson Strong.

The best most complete player of the quarter back position in this draft.

The Panthers will whiff on this Penn Fhules Gold, laughed out of the mint.

McCalls highlight throws look eerily similar to mahomes.   His throws from different arm angles is impressive 

He doesn't have Mahomes arm strength but the accuracy and ball placement is next level. 

As an App State fan, I don't love Coastal but I love McCall.

I’ve watched every single game he’s played, most of them live.

Louisiana and Ole Miss are just flat out better than Liberty… the ULM game was an outlier but definitely a bad loss.

Okay? Just being "better" doesn't mean much when you're talking about taking a guy in the Top 10. Willis CRUMBLED in those games. I don't even know that he is a one read quarterback because I rarely see him make reads. He drops back and just looks for open guys rather than throwing with timing and pace.

Some team will reach for him based on his Pro Day and I hope to God it's not the Panthers. The pressure he faced against Louisiana and Ole Miss are what he will get weekly in the NFL and he was absolutely atrocious in those games. 

Line up McCall and Willis and tell me who you would rather have. Look at their statistics against similar competition.

More specifically you could look at McCall's numbers against App State last year. App had a top quarter defense and it's comparable to Louisiana in terms of difficulty.

McCall finished 15/23 for 291 yards and a touchdown with no turnovers  with a QBR of 81 while playing on a high ankle sprain and bum shoulder. 

Malik Willis against Louisiana finished 14/34 for 196 yards and 2 touchdowns with two interceptions and a QBR of 19.8. 

That's a snippet but he was God awful and if some other team wants to reach and get him, let them.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
