There are tons of physically talented guys who never improve. 

You guys say that about Sam Darnold all the time.

If you are in the NFL you are physically talented. Some guys improve. Some don’t. That’s the nature of the business.

Come on man.

Extra ordinary athletes in relation to their peers. Mike Vick  Jeff George etc often don't do the hard extra things it requires to improve and you know it.

Often the more physically talented the worse the fundamentals and technique.

Vs the true killers like Michael Jordan who not only had the physical tools he grinded constantly on his fundamentals. 

If the fundamentals are bad after two years in college it's a red flag to me.

I agree with that statement on Falcons Mike Vick, Eagles Mike Vick was a much improved passer. He used that big arm instead of his legs.

Eagles Mike Vick only had 2 years over 3000 yards and only one of those was a 60 percent completion percentage. 

The only other season he hit 60 percent in his whole career he only had 66 attempts.

If I take away those two seasons his career completion percentage is 53.2

 

As I have said Mike Vick couldn't hit the ocean from the beach. He absolutely sucked and I would never want a Mike Vick level QB to be drafted by us outside of the 6th and 7th round.

Been curious where Corral lines up as I've been doing my armchair scouting. I've got his game vs Bama last year to watch still and a few other games, but I'm starting to become a believer that Matt Corral would be QB1 in this draft class... 👀

Matt Corral has heart he plays bigger than 6'2" 210lbs. He was attacking DBs and even LBs as a runner. While you don't want him trying to truck guys in the NFL as a QB it just shows the aggressive nature of Corral the football player.

He's no sissy QB he's a football player he'll hit and get hit, it's all football to him much like Cam he's not just playing QB he's playing football.

Players like that need to be protected and managed because otherwise they're completely fearless.

I think with proper management and just a little more work on reigning in that arm and cutting down on overthrowing guys on deep passes he'll be a Aaron Rodgers type of player.

Seeing how Rhule had Baker looking like a shell of himself, I think Corral should get a full camp and preseason under actual NFL coaches. He's technically our 3rd round pick this coming year anyway.

He’s looking better and better as the college season progresses and these prospects show more red flags. 
 

He didn’t fall to round 3 because of talent (or lack of it).

This comp dates me some, but Corral makes me think of Jake Plummer with more arm talent. 
 

Corral needs to use his athleticism that way. No more running over dudes, but covering lots of ground on boots, and having the secondary ability to gash teams if they forget about his legs. 
 

Corral has a nicely refined play action and sells it well. A great pump fake too. He does a lot of little things well.

The more I think about his heart the more I like him.

Maybe he has some Jake in him.

For all the Corral is too small people, here he is next to PJ. PJ has 15 pounds on Bryce Young. CJ Stroud has 1" and like 5 pounds on Corral for complete context of these top 2 guys in the draft

    • Its too late for that.  Time has run out.  You dont give him a ext if he plays "decent".  He played "decent" at the end of last year and look what happened.  
    • I’m not necessarily advocating sticking with Bryce. His highs show the ability is there, but there’s enough bad film out there to doubt that he can consistently enough play at a high enough level. But this video from Brett Kollman is a pretty good argument to give it a bit more time, whether that be rolling with Bryce just next year or picking up his 5th year option (not extending him).      The gist is that the structural (wider hashes) and rule (3 yd vs 1 yd thresholds for intelligible offensive lineman downfield penalties) differences in the college and NFL have led to wildly different play calling and scheme diets in college. There is much more shotgun and RPO calls in college and screen/quick throws. This simply doesn’t set up young QBs to be able to play under center, which is more preferred in the NFL due to RBs being able to more effectively run out of that formation.  They don’t know how to do it and have to learn. Yes, the NFL has trended more toward college style offense in the last decade or so, but it isn’t that pronounced and is more out of necessity than desire. And on top of all that, they ask the young QBs to do all this learning with coaching and other personnel churn going on around them.  Bad results lead to coaches getting fired and new ones with different ideas on scheme and footwork and different terminology and playbooks coming in. It makes it harder on those young QBs to learn.     So we may drop Bryce for a young QB starter in the draft and be in a similar situation. With a QB who is going to take years to learn how to operate in an NFL style offense and will struggle along the way.  So you have to weigh whether the struggles we see from Bryce are more due to this learning process vs solely physical limitations on his part. It’s almost undoubtedly a bit of both, but the answer to that question I think dictates your strategy at QB over the next few years. And of course, you have to consider what the alternatives available are.    I’m neither a Bryce hater or a Bryce Stan and I don’t have an answer to that question. But I do fear that if we move on from him, unless it’s for an established player, we’re just in for continued frustration on the QB front because it’s going to take a few years for a college QB to develop (Drake Maye’s don’t grow on trees).
