I just said in another thread.  If you draft him you go with him this season. Maybe not week one or two but by our bye week he should be under center.  We have Mike Sanders a good running back with great hands.  A CMC type of RB.  We have H. Hurst a good receiving TE.  A solid offensive line. DJ Chark a take the top off receiver and one of the best route runners in the NFL in Thielen.

From his interviews at the combine he showed great understanding of being a QB. Good QB IQ.

As Dan O said, to me, this indicates he can be brought along slowly and let the talent around him be the stars.  He doesn't have to carry the team.

Draft Him, Start Him

He's my darkhorse candidate.

I normally think Dan O sucks and I can’t stand to listen to him (he did say Kyle Allen was the future) but the only reason I give him a listen now, is because he was almost hired by Reich to coach on this team. Maybe he has some insider info, maybe when he was interviewed or talked to, he got an idea of what the team was looking for? Regardless, right when we traded up, he immediately thought it was for AR, he’s been hinting at this for some time. 
 

I still don’t think we will draft him, although I want us to, ultimately I am ok with all three…in case anyone wanted to know lol.

This kinda terrifies me. For a guy who was a former QB himself, it seems like Orlovsky is pretty much always wrong about QB prospects.

Has anyone actually talked to any Florida fans about him? I feel like it’s pretty telling that the mass majority of them think he was hot garbage. 
 

Are we really buying that he’s in consideration?

I saw a clip on youtube about him.  One game he was a Heisman trophy candidate the next they didn't want him to throw.

He needs work, no doubt but we definitely have the coaching staff to handle him and a good offensive group to help him.  He doesn't have to carry the team.

Dan can be hit or miss. Generally he is pretty good about pro QB rankings - but I do remember saying Sam Darnold was a better version of Joe Burrow a couple of years ago. 

But to his credit I think he was high on Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts too.

I could see it at pick 9. But #1 overall? He’s a much bigger gamble from what I’m seeing.

Counterpoint: they're Florida Gators fans.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
