Corral vs the rest of the rookie field

Impossible to say what he will or won't be given the initial circumstances we put a rookie QB into. If we had taken any of the other rookie QB's they would have looked the same behind the backup OL and with the coaching staff giving the rookie very little real practice reps. The results working with the 2nd and 3rd string oline speaks for itself. Walker beaten up Corral heading to IR and now Darnold out for several weeks. You're kidding yourself if you think Willis Howell Ridder or others look promising under Rhule's mismanagement.

I'm gonna be honest, this just reads like copium. Ballers ball. Even when put in bad situations they find a way to show they belong.

Corral simply didn't look like an NFL player. He needs a LOT of work but he's not gonna get any on IR.

Not good.

I think people have WAY to much emotion invested in Corral and are setting themselves up for disappointment. 

If he panned out, great. If he doesnt? no sweat off my back and there are better QBs in this upcoming draft who arent as raw. Plus if Baker plays as well as he is capable we might already have a franchise Qb on the roster.

We'll see about that copium you speak of when Baker is running for his life if we get a few banged up olinemen. I'll be eager to see how much better he fares after several weeks of it.

So you're gonna root for our starter to struggle because your crush of a rookie looked terrible? 😂 Okay...

3rd round rookies rarely rescue franchises, and some fans seemed to think that was his future here. I'll be happy if he turns into a solid backup. His story isn't written yet but it isn't looking particularly promising all things considered. He'll get another shot to show what he learned next year.

Being realistic about our oline depth and Matt Rhule still looking out of his depth = I am rooting for Baker to fail?

ihey s Matt Corral a smart talented all around good kid that his family especially his parents should be proud of? ABSOLUTELY YES...

do I think that he is ever going to become a starting Qb one day in the NFL?.. absolutely without a shadow of a doubt absolutely NOT...

do I think he can develop into a decent backup Qb in this league...once again NO...

do I hope that I am wrong about Matt Corrall's future in the NFL...YES & as long as he is a Carolina Panther then HE[[ YES...

is the Huddle going to like this post? ...DEFINITELY NOT...

Wholly disagree, I’ve watched nearly every snap from Willis, Howell, and Thompson and they are playing with the same quality of OL players that Corral played with. Titan fans were asking for Willis to come out tonight with how bad Tennessee’s OL was playing.

Elite players will step in a get it done. It’s quite obvious that the game is way too quick for Corral right now.

You can tell who wanted him to fail and why. He wasn't even my first choice I wanted Malik Willis based on his ceiling and playmaking ability. But there was no reason to hate on our draft pick unlike certain Howell fanboys.

😂 😂 😂

Corral was my #2 QB in this draft class. Yeah, I would've rather had Howell but I wasn't upset about picking Corral.

Some picks pan out and some don't. Honestly, I'm pretty shocked by how atrocious Corral looked, but he DID look atrocious.

    • How am I all over the place?  I'm still saying that. I'm saying that Chark at his best and T-Mac right now, on the same team right now for the 2025 season, T-Mac would be ahead of him on the depth chart Week 1. Because in the same way everyone is saying, "T-Mac hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet", the very same is true to say, "nothing Chark did in his past matters moving forward" His peak was a 1,008 yard season where he was the only decent WR on a terrible team.  He didn't put up the 1k yard season because he was a great WR, it was because of how bad the rest of them on the team were. His stats aren't the same as his ability, and his ability was never all that good to begin with. Hell, most of this board agrees that T-Mac is our #1 right now, even if Thielen is Bryce's #1 option early in the saeson just because of the comfort level there, he's still just a slot safety valve and T-Mac is our #1. If you put peak Chark on the roster RIGHT NOW (even without T-Mac)... is anyone even putting him over Thielen, XL, or Coker going into this season? I'm honestly not sure many of us would consider him as such, because even at his best, he was just a JAG.  So if the same people who are okay with T-Mac being ahead of those guys right now, wouldn't put Chark above them, how can you in the same breath say Chark was better than T-Mac already is now?
    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
