Howell still looks like Howell. Still running. Still dropping dimes. Does not look like a rookie. Still making chicken salad out of chicken poo. But damn, do the Commanders serve up some chicken poo. They look terrible and terribly undisciplined to boot.

24/35 for 280 and 1 TD, 8 carries for 62 yards

Everyone knows I'm a huge Howell fan but I'm honestly surprised how well his athleticism is translating. I really didn't know how his running would translate in the NFL. Well, it looks just like it did at UNC. Really strong and hard to tackle and sneaky fast once he's in the clear.

It’s criminal and fire worthy that fitt didn’t snag him up in the 5th.

I was told willis was to slow to run in the NFL... and to raw to much of a project.. Couldn't throw.. 

The speed may have been disproven, it remains to be seen if he can throw and he's definitely still a project..... He's still a backup unless Tannehill gets hurt...  I'd say in a redraft he's up to about a 2nd rounder... But not the 6th overall you wanted him at.

Willis with a real nice half…

12/16 - 88 yards - 1 TD

4 carries - 79 yards

167 total yards

 

Those are pretty good numbers but Willis is no where near ready to run an offense.  Too often he is looking to run.  I've been able to see him in his preseason games thanks to AFN and he'r a runner first. Too many times he is looking to run.

I think Ridder is looking the best out of the rookies.  Fortunately for him he was given plenty of Reps and it shows.  Our rookie was given the opposite.

He’s for sure looking to run but I think a lot of it has to do with the OL. Specifically yesterday, the Cardinals were feasting in the backfield. The difference is that Willis is used to that kind of pressure and can escape it. Stat wise, Liberty’s OL was the second worst OL in college football last year.

He’s also drastically improved in just three weeks of game action.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • 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.
