A CASE FOR DRAFTING HERBERT I MEAN LEVIS

While on YT watching film on all the qb's being discussed here I came across this

go to 39:15 mark.

That led me to go here. https://www.thepowderblues.com/forum/forum/los-angeles-chargers-forum-nfl-forum-padres-forum/charger-s-2017-draft-forum/748977-2020-nfl-draft-discussion/page7#post892712

That's when it got interesting, the similarities were astounding. 

Bryce Young / Tua was on their minds

Joe Burrow / CJ Stroud was out of reach they were picking 6th

Jordon Love / AR was moving up the boards trough media hype

Herbert / Levis was a hard pass, do not want

 

Some quotes from their board:

You are going to hate the Herbert pick.

Some heads will explode here if they were to pick Herbert here!

Hebert is very comparable to Paxon Lynch and other similar QB's who have awesome physical skills, but lack consistent accuracy, and intangibles so they usually are drafted high and are big busts in NFL......

Love may be in similar category, but at least he interviews better than herbert..... unfortunately neither of them ever played against a good defense like both Burrow and Tua have.....
 

Liars month. Everyone relax. And prepare yourself emotionally for when they take Herbert.

 

Hebert has a canon for an arm But throws almost every pass like a straight bullet pass in madden football..... when Hebert has a wide open receiver, he still throws a bullet instead of throwing a touch pass that allows receiver to adjust to the ball...... either he hits them with a strike or misses them badly..... bullet passes are needed for some plays against certain coverages, but when defense play zone, Hebert will have to loft the ball over defenders into soft spots in zone....... he did not do that in his bowl games or senior bowl...... and played primarily against bad defenses.... and almost all his completions were to open first reads...... he was horrible when first reads were covered.....

 

Can someone tell me that Herbert is a lot better than Stick or Taylor ?

Nope.

 

I don't want Herbert...too flat footed in the pocket and not accurate enough. Didn't give a darn about his Senior Bowl performance.

 

Herbert on Proday Launching Flatfooted 64 yards... Remember Levis pro day same thing,

 

I dont want Herbert but damn if he aint got a cannon.

 

 

Then there was one post saying it was their best off-season with F.A. ,new coach, new uniforms.
 

Like I said a lot of similarities today. I like to gamble, the draft is a gamble.... I'll take Young or Levis.

Oh there's also this....

Sweet jesus this is going to be a long 3 weeks.

Levis was a fine option at #9, once we made the trade up to #1 it became a 2 horse race.

Stop trying to make Levis or AR a possibility, it won't happen.

First off I think they should have stayed put, there is no clear number  1 qb.

Secondly I just made the thread to show how similar the two situations are and that you don't know who's going to do what.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
