IF we could secure a long term LT whether that is BC making the step or signing Armstead I would be very interested in either Willis or Pickett at 6. Lots to like with both of these young men.

I’m surprised Miami hasn’t signed Armstead yet I bet he goes back to Saints

For the record Willis isn't even CLOSE to Vick in terms of athletic ability and rushing 

 

Don't get me wrong Willis is very mobile and can break tackles

 

but to this day looking at some old vick highlights WOW that guy was an alien

He had Panthers number that’s for sure

71-0

That’s the score of our 2 meetings against Vick in ‘02.

And it was all him too.

I think Boomers just can’t handle QBs that can run. It’s non traditional and that irks them…. 

Not really...

Running quarterbacks have been around way longer than people think. Fran Tarkenton is the earliest one I can remember watching, but there was also Roger Staubach, John Elway and others.

Having watched those guys, I always get a chuckle when people act like mobile quarterbacks are some new trend.

Those legs are massive for a QB.  Dear lord 

my feeling is if they draft this kid, Cam will be brought back to start and then give way.  They know each other 

he has a lot of physical attributes.  He has a lot of intangibles 

why did he leave Auburn ? 

mcAdo supposedly knows QBs.  I don’t want Rhule anywhere near this decision

There’s a lot of talk that no one was going to supplant Nix regardless of how good they were.

Nix is a legacy child, his dad was the starting QB at Auburn and his family has a lot of influence in that community.

On the other hand, Malzahn and Freeze are very good friends, it’s thought that he was steered to Liberty because of the connection.

Willis isnt running the 40 because as good of a rusher he is, he isn't straight line fast

 

and a meh 40 time would really cool his draft hype. 

Did Lamar jackson run a 40? Or kyler Murray? Fact is running a 40 as a qb doesn't benefit you at all. All it does is fuel the... he could be a wr or hb hype.

Having the offense focused around them absolutely is. Plenty of rushing qbs were written off before this new wave. Or forced to play HB or wr. All the way up to say Marcus vick(Vicks brother headcase I know) but if he came out in this class I dout people would say he can't play qb.

    • And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year 
    • That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.
    • There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
