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

    • So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk. 
    • Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
