But they have elite talent. They're what you're hoping to get with a #1 overall pick. Lamar has the "running QB" knock against him and Mahomes had the "air raid QB" knock against them. Evaluations have changed since then and they're both a big reason why.

Granted Johnny Sucks at Football was the last A&M QB drafted.... I can see that honestly.

 

As far as jackson goes his legs do open up the passing game for him.... it will be interesting to see how he does when he loses a step.

Neither of these guys went to A&M. Mahomes went to Texas Tech and TT QBs prior to Mahomes had the same rep of Tedford Cal QBs pre-Rodgers.

I don't think Lamar will age well but he's a helluva QB right now.

Lord knows is very happily take either one.

No disagreement there...

The ads from Mahomes / Kelce…. I mean this is nauseating

I don't understand marketing companies. 

Kelce and Mahomes are literally everywhere - the marketing companies have made people hate them. The same thing happened with Rodgers and P. Manning. They've oversaturated the market.

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
