Peak Darnold was 3,000 yards with 19 TDs and 13 INTs.  Darnold sucks.

The last QB to win OROY had 4,300 yards with 31 TDs and 10 INTs.

I think Darnold last year with a good OL and a decent coach was peak for him.  1143 yards 7 TDs 3 INTs.  It was an incomplete season but it was designed for him to limit his mistakes much like you would with a rookie.  He did it over 6 games so that make it on track for what?  3200 passing yards, 20 TDs  8.5 INTS.  Better play from a rookie would be a nice start.  Lower INTs, More TDs, and More Yards.  

I am not arguing if he sucks because I don't think he is a starting QB in this league, I am saying if we get better play from our rookie than Sam had last year it would be a nice start.  The theory is the rookie gets better while Sam was on his 5th year.

Has CJ and richardson ranked above Bryce. Interesting 

 

The whole knock on AR was he was less ready than the other two. Simms list is supposed to be for the upcoming season, not projecting 3 years in the future. Putting AR ahead of the other two first round QBs for THIS season makes this whole list a farce.

This feels like he was doing something controversial just to get clicks/views.

It's weird because Corral and Young don't look much different in size here.  According to Fitt Corral is up to 220 and he was what 6'2"?

Odd angle maybe, swapping positions makes the height difference more apparent even though Bryce moved into the foreground

Yeah i think it's just the camera angle and the fact that Corral is in the foreground. One thing to remember about all these pics is that the camera angle and position of players can make them seem taller or shorter than they really are.  People making fun of Young because he looks small in one picture behind our line are idiots.

Between the Zack Wilson, Corral, and Mitch comments he is just saying things to go against the grain and make some headlines. 

Exactly. Chris Simms going against the grain and trying to make some headlines  is the same way I took it..

I was pretty sure Anderson was going to be drafted early, but I agree with Simms that Anderson isn't as good of a prospect as he was built up to be.  I think if the Cardinals scheme him to the QB he will put up good numbers.  But if they expect him to beat tackles on his own week in and week out, they are going to be disappointed.

William Anderson Jr. is an American football defensive end for the Houston Texans

Yeah, that one kinda confused me as well. Although, I do find that confusing me is so much easier than it used to be. So, I really wasn't too sure in the first place. lol

It’s not about the beginning of the year. Caleb Williams finished college football this year as the best QB in college football. And that’s why he was awarded the awards. Bryce was terrific. Caleb was just better. And he’s a better pro prospect due to his size, arm strength and speed compared to Bryce. 
 

That’s why there’s many articles like this: https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2023-all-eligible-nfl-mock-draft

Bears, and I agree, would not have traded out of first overall if Caleb was on the board. And they’d take him with Fields on the roster. 

Here’s another about how Caleb would have been the first pick in this class and even last years class: https://247sports.com/Article/Caleb-Williams-would-be-first-QB-selected-in-2023-or-last-years-NFL-Draft-if-eligible-analyst-says-200236324/

https://clutchpoints.com/usc-football-news-jordan-addison-caleb-williams-nfl-draft
 

Here is an article on the athletic where they interviewed coaches: https://theathletic.com/4453949/2023/04/26/nfl-draft-quarterback-class-analysis/

Some preferred Stroud, some Young but even at the bottom there’s a quote where the person said Williams is significantly better than these prospects. By the time the season was over it was clear Williams was the best QB on any college field this year, Young included. 

 

Lets have Williams declare for the draft, get drafted and play a snap in the NFL before we crown him anything.  He wasn't in this draft.  The draft is over. 

What Panthers fan gives a shlt about Williams atm?

Young clearly looks much more fragile than Corral who's so durable because, you know, he weighs more.

    • How am I all over the place?  I'm still saying that. I'm saying that Chark at his best and T-Mac right now, on the same team right now for the 2025 season, T-Mac would be ahead of him on the depth chart Week 1. Because in the same way everyone is saying, "T-Mac hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet", the very same is true to say, "nothing Chark did in his past matters moving forward" His peak was a 1,008 yard season where he was the only decent WR on a terrible team.  He didn't put up the 1k yard season because he was a great WR, it was because of how bad the rest of them on the team were. His stats aren't the same as his ability, and his ability was never all that good to begin with. Hell, most of this board agrees that T-Mac is our #1 right now, even if Thielen is Bryce's #1 option early in the saeson just because of the comfort level there, he's still just a slot safety valve and T-Mac is our #1. If you put peak Chark on the roster RIGHT NOW (even without T-Mac)... is anyone even putting him over Thielen, XL, or Coker going into this season? I'm honestly not sure many of us would consider him as such, because even at his best, he was just a JAG.  So if the same people who are okay with T-Mac being ahead of those guys right now, wouldn't put Chark above them, how can you in the same breath say Chark was better than T-Mac already is now?
    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
