Combine Drills: Quarterback Day

Yeah I've already been thinking about the Willis situation last year. All this about 4 QB's going in the top ten is just draft hype I would be shocked if anything like that went down. But if we do want to move up don't waste too much opportunity.

At this point last year …. Malik Willis was projected to be a top 3 overall pick after the combine and his pro day.

Malik Willis was propped up by an extremely weak QB class last year.  The first QB taken was what, Pickett in the 20s?  

There is no chance in hell Richardson falls out of the 1st round.

He was propped up by the hype machine. Again, this is not a played to player comparison to AR. This is tempering expectations on where the pro teams actually see these guys being drafted. 
 

they know way better than anyone else. Teams knew last year Malik wasn’t gonna go first round… but media, Vegas, sources and analysts all were saying Malik could be taken by the lions as their top pick.

Do you personally think AR will go top 10?  First round?  As we sit today what do you think?

I personally think AR will be the third/fourth QB taken. Where he will be taken all depends on who trades up.

i also didn’t think Mitch Trubisky would be a top pick or Baker would go number 1 overall. So what do I know?

Unless I am missing something there is literally no coverage of the panthers and the combine on the Charlotte Observer site.  WTF has happened to that paper?  Are they really too cheap to send someone up there?

Newspapers are a dead business and they've been in managed decline mode for my entire adult life. I had to unfollow my local small town newspaper on social media because it was just completely trash. Celebrity gossip, national level culture war BS, etc. Like you're a small town (sub-20k) western NC newspaper. I'm following you for local stories. When I couldn't even find the sports schedule for the local HS playoff games anywhere on their site I was like... oh just fug off and fold already. LOL!

But your gut was right about mitch and baker so I would say instincts matter.   I think a team in the top 10 falls in love with the hype and AR goes top 3.    I think Stroud goes before him and thats probably it

I think there is more hype for the others than AR within league circles right now. The way scouts talk about Bryce and Stroud are completely different than the way they talk about AR and WL. 
 

with Bryce and CJ it’s “can” and “will” and AR/WL are “could” and “should”

The wildest thing about media, analysts, and mocks is that they have to tell a story a hundred different ways with the same data…. Talk about monetized monotony. 
 

this is the period of time where we get ear banged with the same poo over and over but in a handful different of ways. Get ready for AR to be number 1 one day, CJ number 1 the next, and back to Bryce a mere couple days later.

 

also, get ready for a bunch of “weird” inside reports like wayne Gretzky’s kid getting punched in the face.

 

 

good luck everyone. Stay sane. Keep balanced.

If nothing else the next round of mocks will be entertaining

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
