Folks who get fooled by Pro Days tend to fall for the Zach Wilson’s of the world. 


People were enamored with Zach because they were so focused on finding the next Mahomes and he did Mahomes like throws.

It was a stupid way to evaluate someone but that’s the jets after all.

For the ones taking these pro days so seriously. Do you realize there’s no pass rush coming at them during pro days. No reading coverages?  Hell, Johnny Manziel and Zach Wilson lit up their pro days. Any average college QB with a good arm can look good at a pro day. Who cares. It doesn’t matter.

I think the size concerns are overblown. Stroud is the better pure passer with a stronger arm, but Young does everything else the position requires(calling out protections, reads, scrambling, etc) today better. I prefer Young because he plays the game a little better and never seemed to get rattled by pressure.


Im leaning that way too. I don’t know if he’ll get killed out there (Frank can determine that), but what’s between the ears is more important that what’s below them.

Mahomes' playstyle  is not what you want your rookie QB doing.  Cross body, cross field throws while backpedaling is normally bad news.  He just has a crazy strong arm and can make it work where others have failed.  I don't think Young does as much of that stuff though, it's more evading pressure and extending plays to make the read.

 Absolutely no one takes them seriously.

They are just good opportunities to reflect on each player.

Thanks for the insight Mr. Flag Football Coach.  
 

Btw I agree - like some of the beat reporters have noted, the personal interactions at the dinners and casual convos likely offer much more insight than the actual passing drills do

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
