But yet we have teams that are able to get a 7th rounder to out perform MC.  Is that on the evaluation or the develop?  Because its a fug up somewhere down the line.  How is it every and I mean every drafted qb is ahead of our 3rd round pick?

Did those 7th rounders play in a pro ready system or Lane Kiffin one read system in Ole Miss.. Because again @mrcompletely11 it's about context.. The world is not black and white.. You need to add variables and situation when discussing why this and that happens..

the 7th rounder came from a no huddle offense

Willis came from a one read elementary gimmick offense

Zappe came from a run and shoot offense

 

But by the grace of God I suppose those coaching staffs got them more prepared then MC

If our staff evaluated MC and went into thinking "this guys is going to take 2 years to get up to speed" and we traded up for him, then the entire lot needs to be fired on the spot

Crazy Part is Trevour..  Even Matt Corral said this..

When he was talking about how he wished he choose a different college.. That would have prepared him better for this transition  ..

And some ppl still couldn't understand this..

Neat trick offenses that work in college because power teams completely outclass others have all have a very short shelf life in the NFL....

 

The RPO, the Wildcat Spread ect all cute vogue wrinkles that have stuck around in college because of talent disparity... They don't work long term in the NFL... It's one of the big reasons QBs and OTs have had such a harder transition.

Corral likely won't make it. But the trade up for him was to placate fans knowing we would go into the season with only Darnold. The team panicked and we've wasted another valuable draft pick on a QB who won't offer us wins.

Pretty standard for this org.

Can the process play the fug out before we go into he will never be nothing mode??

When did football become a 1 year is all you need to know league??

Ironically, most modern NFL offenses more closely resemble a typical college offense than they do the stereotypical "NFL offense" of the '80s. The college game has been the primary driver of innovation in the game for awhile now.

As my man Julian Council pointed out in his podcast today, when MC goes under the knife its roughly an 11 month process of recovery.  Meaning its going to be extremely tight getting him ready and competing for 2023.  So if we are looking at 2024 as the year he takes over then that is basically a generation in nfl years.  So much can happen in that time and I am pretty damn certain we will have a new coach with the next 24 months and if so its a completely moot point. 

 

So even in the best case scenario that Baker balls out and rhule stays.  Baker is getting a new 3-4-5 year deal.  Now are you thinking at some point down the line MC beats him out?  Sure that could happen, is it likely fug no

We had our choice we could have moved up for Willis and Howell was available. I would have been fine with either and Willis had the highest ceiling out of all but the staff made their choice and we're stuck with it.

Willis hasn't proven a thing, he's playing back yard football in the preseason and has displayed horrible accuracy and an inability to get past his first read before taking off agaist defenses that are calling baby butter plays with no gamelan.

You take way too much stock in the preseason.

You traded up for the physical talent and upside play... Do you not get how football works anymore??

Corral physical is way more arm talent then everybody in this draft not name Wills.. It was the mental part ppl were worried about.. 

Let me say this slowly..

If you can get him the mental part .. You have a guy with Matt Stafford type arm talent and faster feet..

Is that not worth a 3rd next year and 1 to 2 years of patience??

Hell yessss!!

Damm!!!

Willis hasnt proven a thing?  Okay dokey buddy

 

He has proven he can start an nfl preseason game and move the ball.  He has proven to start at the bottom of the totem pole and work his way up.   He was a much much bigger project then our boy and yet here we are

Yet that innovation generally doesn't last long.... or work unless you have a ridiculously stacked offense. 

NFL rule changes had more to do with it in my opinion... those offenses were unstoppable after the recent enforcement changes.... and yet elite defenses have already adapted.

The players and teams I have listed have clearly shown they can work with their draft picks and get them up to speed and have them produce in preseason games.  I am not saying they are all pros I am simply saying that every single drafted qb has shown much much more then our boy.  Thats either on development and/or evaluation because when a 4rth, 5th and a 7th round qb are clearly outplaying our guy something is amiss.

Have they? Average yards and points have been steadily increasing for the past 20 years.

Yeah, elite defenses are going to do what they do but that's cherry picking. Look at league averages for the better overall picture.

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
