We sure this guy’s “generational”?

Wow. I honestly didn't realize it was that bad.

That's what I was telling a buddy earlier this morning. Like I get it. He has a ton of talent and a highlight reel second to none. But the Pac-12 just does not play defense. He rarely faces a real defense.

I would love to see who those top 25 teams were that he played. But when it comes to the draft it won't really matter too much. He was always going to be under a crazy microscope because he balled out for two years. But by hitching your wagon to go with Lincoln Riley you are forced to play in shootouts every single week because he simply does not give a hoot about defense. And this is probably the least talented team he has been on. 

Stroud couldn't beat Michigan. Manning couldn't beat Florida. Josh Allen couldn't hit a movie target in stride his whole college career. Mahomes had some 5 interception games in college. 

Regardless of what the final stat line reads for Williams, hes the closest thing we have to Mahomes in college but hes significantly further ahead in terms of accuracy and playmaking ability compared to Mahomes in college. So he is going to get drafted high by a team that thinks they can develop him into something similar.. 

I know it sounds stupid but if you are Chicago and you can pair Williams with DJ Moore and Marvin Harrison Jr, Darnell Mooney and Cole Kmet that *looks* like a pretty sick offense for a rookie top end QB to jump into.

Saw that Carl Torbush passed away today.

In my younger years I was a student assistant for a team that Torbush worked for (not UNC) and I wore a UNC hoody into the football operations building one morning on the way to do film review. A few of the coaches told me to take my hoody off but Torbush looked at me and said it was the best thing he’s seen all morning and to keep it on lol.

He was instrumental in getting Peppers to UNC and was otherwise just a great human being.

RIP Coach.

Listen, I'm a UNC fan so I fully comprehend the frustration of scoring a lot of points and watching your D somehow manage to surrender even more, but damnit Caleb Williams you cannot go crawling into the stands to literally go crying to momma. Good grief, man.

He did that? I fell asleep and hadn’t seen anything about the game aside from the score. No wonder Drake is the consensus #1 pick now.

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By hepcat · Posted

      Nijman is actually one of the better free agent left tackles available in free agency and he will get a chance to start next year. He will get a raise and likely be re-signed. Christensen backs him up and they should sign another veteran tackle and/or draft a 2nd or 3rd round tackle as well. Zavala and Corbett need to go so they should also draft a guard. I’ve suggested they should trade down in the first round to accumulate more picks for depth they are going to need a lot of going forward.

      Princely overall PFF was 47 compared to Scourton’s 68.   Not everything shows  up in the stats.

      If you account for the discrepancy in snap counts, then Princely and Scourton actually had pretty similar production. Scourton: 717 snaps (68%) 47 tackles (7 TFL) 5 sacks 15 pressures 1 FF Princely: 222 snaps (22%)  24 tackles (2 TFL) 1.5 sacks 5 pressures 1 FF, 1 FR I think Scourton was simply given more opportunities to flash.  Then it goes to a more abstract argument of why Princely was not given more playing time.  But then we'd be blindly giving credence to the same guy who not only drafted DJ Johnson, but was happy to waste a roster spot and snaps on the guy for 2 seasons and some change.
