That's the whole thing! The media wanted a feel good story. Like when the camera showed him giving help to the homeless person. They wanted the Malik Willis story to lead ESPN in clicks, etc. Meanwhile, LOTS of kids in the Draft were "good kids with a big heart". Pickett got that quick bit on ... what was it Big Brothers Big Sisters? Then all the kids with immigrant parents got their time in the sun. The media thought they had the biggest story in years with Willis.

Why are you so consumed by this even after the draft? BTW you're about one step away from saying he has a fake smile 🤔

Oh, calm down, Francis.

All he's saying is the media over projected him, leading with his character story, like they often do. 

He had a great story and it maybe carried him a little further with the media. That's all. lol

I think he landed in a terrible place for him imo. 

Why so? I think its perfect. tanny cant be the QB forever but hes good enough where Willis wont have to play for 2-3 years. They have a history with mobile qbs and a strong run game foundation. I believe he will show up in the preseason and some one comes calling for a trade before then tho. He could easily net you a 1-2 as trade compensation if all goes well like jimmy G.

Tenn also has a reputation for not developing young QBs and prioritising running the ball over getting a WRs to help. We will see but there were better places.

Well for last year they had ah brown and julio that isn't bad at all. Henry doesn't hurt either. I mean ten got Ryan tanny to work as well. Not sure how many qbs mike vabrel himself has failed but we will see.

This could say more about the qb market this offseason as well seeing as how many teams don't need a qb. All the Watson moved and qb moment means fewer jobs or reasons to invest. A few team's are sitting with 2 starting caliber qbs they can't offload(jimmy G and baker) there is a surplus.. But don't let facts get in the waY of a good ole I told you so.

    • Oh, I get it. I called him Peewee for the first couple of years. He is too small to be an NFL QB. It wasn't as much of a problem in college, even in the SEC, because every player in the NFL is the size and speed of the biggest 22 on your entire college team.  I was left scratching my head over the pick and what we traded to get him (and yes, that cost analysis is unavoidable). Now we're sunk into the third season and the kid just popped a frikkin' amazing game out there where he showed every mark of what you need in a top end QB. Great passing, mobility, guts, toughness (that ankle must have been killing him) and the ability to put a team on his back to claw back a win. He didn't win it with his arm so much as by getting the ball to the right people at the right time, but that is what the best do. Do I believe he's going to be our QB of the future here? I'm still out on that. Way out on that. But I'm at least intrigued. Can he replicate what he did or even get close? Can he perform well against the power opponents we have left on the schedule? Heck, can he even beat New Orleans this season?  Right now, my personal feeling is that he'd make a heck of a back-up QB. He could prove me wrong and excel, though. Maddening as it is, that'd be the best outcome ever. Or he could have just hit his peak. And that would be bittersweet because then we start the whole thing over again. I don't see a reclaimation project QB out there right now that Canales can work his magic on.
    • The Niners didn't want him. I think to some extent they were publicly shamed into making an offer when it was revealed he was not in their plans.
    • I think that is a price and attitude thing. Reportedly he was a bit of a handful for Shanahan, although admittedly not enough to not sign him to that big deal. I also think this may be much ado about nothing. If we plays this season, I suspect they will likely not move on from him.
