Spencer Rattler ? Write up by Daniel Kelly article from Aug 31, 2022

Has played well to end the season. 

 

Needs another year to put it all together. Arm talent is there. 

 

Biggest improvement he's made is climbing the pocket which is a really big deal at the next level. 

I sat 4th row on the home side of every game and was able to observe his demeanor. He doesn't seem to lose his cool like you would expect given his reputation. 

Right now I'd give him 4th-5th round. 

I think he could climb to the 2nd if he has a good year next year.

In general, I don't think that it's a good idea for us to be turning our nose up at any QB with upside.🤷🏻

that's the thing that i have to keep reminding myself of. no matter where you pick, it's going to be a gamble.

no way do i think he should be the only addition to the QB room we make in the offseason, either. as fluky as QB can be, it would be hard to justify not coming out of the draft with a couple prospects. We've got to keep swinging.

I hope he comes back but I don't think he will unfortunately.

See, this is a reasonable take by a Gamecock fan. 

Saying you would take him in the 2nd this year?  Isn't.

If the new regime and GM all agree he’s the guy I don’t care where they draft him. Just get me somebody to be excited about. 

if the new regime all gets together and says Spencer Rattler at the top of the 2nd this year makes sense.  We should of just kept Matt Rhule.   You can't get excited about that.

 To each their own about what can or can’t excite you. I find ways to be optimistic about most things.

DJU was once a Heisman candidate.   Let's pretend he blows up at the ACC Championship and the Bowl game with great numbers.  You going to be excited for him in the 2nd round if they tell you to be.

Nobody can tell me what to be excited for. But yea when they get here, when we got them no longer matters. If they show some reason to be excited for, I will be.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
