I know it's extremely early. Book isn't written and corral isn't around to defend himself. But, looking at the flashes every other peer in his tier is putting up(cough Willis, pickett, ridder) did we really miss here? 

You answered your own question.  It's too early to know because he was in a completely different situation and then got hurt with very chance to show anything.

He looked like a rookie who didn’t get many reps which is exactly what he was. He looked awful the first game and better his second. He will keep getting better with more experience. Let’s see what Baker can do this year which will help dictate how we handle Corral in the future.

He looked woefully out of his depth. And a few more training camp reps were not going to make the difference.

I want to see a silver lining here, but losing a year of practice really will hurt his development. What he will need to do is spend the year watching, and conditioning, and conditioning, and conditioning.

He's very talented, but he's more raw than I expected him to be. So a year riding the bench with no expectations will be good for him. But as others have pointed out, if Rhule isn't hear next offseason, I doubt his future will be with us.

The focus was on Baker-Darnold. I would wager that other quarterbacks mentioned have had more coaching than Corral. If he is able to recover and develop into a solid backup It will not be a wasted pick. It looks like Baker was taking him under his wing. Odds are that Baker will be #1 next year anyway.

The idea that corral wasn’t coached is baffling. It’s not like they told him you’re not allowed in the quarterback room. He got coaching he still gets coaching he just got injured and transitioning to this game is not as easy as some might think. Going from a single read system to a multi read system is a big adjustment. 
 

that all being said. He did look out of place and I think no matter which team he is on, he would have looked the same. He is a project and we all know this. The future for the kid can be bright based on how he handles it and grows.

Sam Howell was woefully undervalued too. He was considered possible first overall pick for 2 seasons untill UNC was gutted, and he still played just as well or better than Pickett. Still baffling to me how he went in the 5th.

Howell included... Everyone one of these guys I have seen have shown something even in limited reps. Corral... I haven't seen it. Not a flash or anything. He looks overwhelmed. Could be wrong but this is starting to feel like grier all over again.. Or tony pike.

    • Clean ACLs really are not. He is already running on it. There are more complicated injuries where ACLs tear with other things that can cause more serious injuries. I think that’s where the confusion comes in. 
    • Try to reduce the amount of soda that you consume on a daily basis. Soda is packed with sugars and carbohydrates, which can cause cause a poor reaction with your skin. Instead of soda, try drinking water or flavored water as an alternative to your meals during the day or night. Try using some kind of mist moisturizer instead of just using plain water. Plain water only hydrates your skin for a short while and will end up drying out your skin. Moisturizing your skin with a mist form of it is a lot easier to apply then a topical cream. Finding the right product for your skin type is a very important factor in making your skin look nice and healthy. If you have dry skin, you would not want to use products that were designed for oily skin. Make sure you research what the products you use are for, and your skin will thank you for it. After you take a shower or a bath or just wash your face, pat dry with a soft towel. Vigorous rubbing will damage the skin. In addition, leaving a little bit of water on your skin will help keep it from drying out and make it easier to apply an after-shower moisturizer.

    • I was thinking Adoree too. I don't want to fixate on one specific guy, just go get the best cost option for this year and roll with it
