Matt Corral is here because of Ben McAdoo

I like it judging off the ranking McAdoo had on previous QB classes and how they panned out accordingly.  

But, as I pointed out in my thread, I'm concerned, yet interested in seeing how they coach him up on the aspects of the deep passing game to complement all of the underneath stuff.

Well Ben is known for being a very good evaluator of rookie QBs so I’ll go with his opinion. Seems like Fitty and Rhule feel the same. McAdoo may look like a schlub but he’s actually a very good OC. He landed a head coaching gig out of it.

Reports are they were split in house.  So you can’t lump every together as feeling the same way.    We just know where the OC stood.  He was on the side of drafting the kid.

You can see from Corral video he fits Mcadoo's west coast offensive profile.. Better than any QB in this draft (with howell right behind that).. 

We didn't start hearing about Corral until Mcadoo got comfortable in that building..

And Reading between the lines a little..

Pickett was a Tepper, Rhule guy..

The Scouts loved Wills upside..

Mcadoo was pushing Corral..

Thank goodness Mcadoo won and they didn't use or waste picks trying to get Pickett ..

Lol. Some of y’all have a very conspiratorial way of looking at absolutely everything 

Yeah, definitely conspiracy-ish. I just hate Rhule so much. 

Probably nothing more than someone with some level of expertise being listened to versus a charlatan.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
