Will Anderson v. QB

You go with the Derrick Thomas aka DT reincarnate over any QB in this draft. If it was Amderson versus a Trevor Lawrence, you take Lawrence, but it's not.

Roll with Corral, take Grayson McCall in the 2nd, keep a veteran clipboard holder and you're set at QB. If it's a rebuild you go with the generational player as a corner stone. Not a JAG like Stroud or Levis.

This isn’t a shot against the OP because I feel like everyone just looks at the numbers, but when is the last time a triple-option QB had success in the NFL…

If Corral’s red flag was that he came from an RPO offense then a fugging stop sign needs to be put up for McCall as Coastal’s basic offensive principles come from the triple-option.

stupid thread

Just Fields says hello with his Ohio State pedigree. 

You'd rather have that, or Dwayne Haskins, than Will Anderson? Anderson is the closest thing to Micah Parsons out there. You don't pass on that for Will fuging Levi's or CJ Stroud.

Especially if we hold on to Burns.

Have you watched Coastal? They run an RPO, sure. But he's also thrown 70 touchdowns to 6 interceptions in his career. He broke Tua's record for passer efficiency rating by 20 points when the record was only being broken incrementally. 

Throwing for 7,000 yards and 75 touchdowns in a little more than 2 seasons isn't "triple option".

I’ve watched Coastal plenty of times… and yes what they do is entirely based off the triple-option.

I’m not saying that he’s not good at what he does. I’m saying that I don’t want anything to do with a G5 QB running a heavy RPO/Triple-Option scheme.

It looked like Corral was going to need a full season to get accustomed to an NFL playbook and he ran RPO at an SEC school against quality defenses… McCall is doing it against Sun Belt teams…

Furthermore, if this was a triple option, wouldn't McCall have a few thousand more rushing Yards and few thousand less passing, and probably 50 less touchdown passes? 

Regardless of whether you take McCall, you still take Anderson over anyone else. You'll never get a shot at a guy like him except in the Top 5 and every 5 years. That's compared to Stroud or Levi's who would be 2nd round picks in a normal QB draft class.

Those guys are nothing compared to what you should be able to nab at 1 for a QB.

Even if you wanted to draft a defender first overall this dude is going to play LB or DE in the pros? And will the team drafting him use him the same way he was used in college? Simmons from Clemson comes to mind in Arizona as a dude with tons of talent who was all over the field in college and the Cardinals used him nothing like he was in college. 

On top of this, I don't believe McCall is worth a second round pick.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
