A really good video on Matt Corral

I thought he passed the eye test in the Louisville game to open the season but didn't watch him much after that. It's very easy to talk yourself into him. Hoping he's our version of Tony Romo or Dak or Brees. Rooting for him to succeed. 

I say if we're gonna bring hope into this then we should hope for better than Romo and Dak. Brees yes, then I'd also hope for Wilson and super hope for Montana.

I think what's nice is the fact that we have Fitt who saw Wilson in preseason and that team started him over...Flynn or whoever that GB backup they paid a bunch for. So if Corral has it, I think he is starting. Personally I think the guys got it. 

Was that Charlie Whitehurst? I mean he was from San Diego I think but wasn't there a big deal made about him going to Seattle or something?

Whitehurst was in Seattle, but he’s right that they gave Flynn a deal in free agency and he was the presumed starter before russell crushed it in training camp/preseason

I had a fringe first round grade on him and placed him as my QB2 in the draft, behind Malik Willis. I was ecstatic we got him in the third.

If he's good enough for @Verge to be happy about it, then I'm all in on the pick. They're almost never wrong.

Of course I hope he is amazing and does a great job for us and becomes a fantastic starting QB. But until I see him in an NFL offense playing against NFL defenses, he is an unproven rookie who fell to the third round and needs a lot of work. Still color me hopeful that he can come in and learn the NFL game and start for us.  If not he is still a good value in the third and worth the gamble.  If we keep.rolling the dice eventually we will find our guy. Hopefully it is Corral.

In a perfect world the kid snatches the job in training camp and off we go thus allowing us to spend our high draft pick on one of those beast defenders or a top wr.

 

Will Anderson on this defense gives me a chubby

Famous last words maybe we should avoid for now. I look forward to seeing more of Corral. Let him show us what he's got.

This sums it up nicely.  My hope is, at a minimum, he can prove that he is better than Darnold.   If he can show you that then you have a fairly cheap backup for a few years and keep swinging.

Yep. The draft really worked great. What if this is our year and the season went the same way. We are overdue to have some good luck for a change.

And he is on a 4 year really cheap contract. Finding a starter on a rookie contract is like hitting the lottery.  Backup or starter it is still a win if he plays.

    • 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.
    • 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.
