Some QBs have that touch. Look at what Purdy did when he came in; now he looks like the second coming of Dan Montana.

Malik had his chance he doesn't have it.

There’s developmental with flashes, then there developmental dud, then Hackenburg. He’s looking like the developmental dud.

I mean, he looked baddd. Couldn’t break 150 passing and one of those games was Houston. And he’s got Henry opening up the pass and scramble game for him.

The announcers were just talking about it. He isn’t getting the ball out fast enough. That’s basically processing speed which gets better with experience. They even mentioned Dobbs being in the league for 6 years helps him process much quicker than a rookie like Willis. Us fans tend to get impatient if rookies don’t shine right away, but a project QB like Willis usually takes some time.

Rookie year does not a career make. Vince Young was ROY. So was Sam Bradford and RG3. Meanwhile, Josh Allen barely threw for 2000 yards at a 52% clip with more INTs than TDs.

Cam Newton 4000 passing yds, 21 Tds 17ints, 84.5 passer rating, and I am not including his rushing stats,Rookie Of The Year 

We new Cam was special his first game , and he just got better

I thought he hasn't broken 100

Yep. Some guys are great as rookies and keep it up. Some look promising and flame out. Some look bad and settle in. You really don't know for sure what you truly have in a guy until year three.

The reality though is that Willis was a mid-round pick. He hasn't lit the world on fire to say the least. If the Titans see a guy in the draft they perceive as a likely upgrade I'm sure they won't hesitate the draft him.

I mean it was obvious Malik couldn't pass in a pro offense pre-draft, we had countless threads on this, just go back and look who was wrong and who was right 🙂

 

Malik may have a Geno Smith-like resurgence later in his career, but it will be on his 3rd/4th team. You don't draft players like that.

I love all the excuses for Willis.  These same excuses are coming from the Corral is garbage folks.  Same guys that wanted Willis in the first round. 

Of Course, he needs more time, LOTS MORE TIME.  There is a difference in guys like Allen that showed flashes and then stupidity.  Hell he still does it.   Willis, from what I have seen is WAY WAY WAY over his head.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
