Opinions: will T.Lawrence be a bust?

I know the Jaguars suck and had Urban Meyer to make it worse. After watching his play for a full season, what do you think. Being the most highly touted QB in his draft class and appeared to have all the intangibles, had a pretty rough season.

Does this prove that a QB drafted #1 is still a crap shoot or will he rebound next season.

Just never know what the future brings in a rookie....no matter drafted first or twenty.

Don't know, but I will say that I was never that big a fan of him.

Not saying that he's bad or anything, but with all the hype that I constantly heard about him I expected a virtual football god.

Then whenever I actually saw him play, I saw good, but I didn't see god.

So is he a bust? Probably not, but I do feel like he's been badly overhyped.

I watched every game he played at Clemson, and while he never produced many "oh my god holy sh-t this guy is insane" moments, he consistently played at an extremely high level and almost always did enough to win. So if you only watch one game expecting to have your socks blown off, you probably won't, but his body of work speaks for itself. Now, let's see what he can do in the NFL with a proper head coach.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
