I agree but to me the fact that he is out there today with no high dollar insurance policy, to finish what he started says a lot about his character.  He is him!

It says to me that he wants to be picked before Sanders. Tape is more important for draft position than the Combine. The media will be pimping the Sanders gang full throttle leading up to the draft. Ward needs tape to offset that.

He broke the NCAA TD record which I think was all he wanted. This is just a guess. 

Sort of lame.  I mean either play or don’t play.  All those dudes out their helping him get his…

I’ll always favor old school football ways

My first thought as well but the all time NCAA passing TD leader is a huge deal.  Hard to fault the guy.

I think it’s clear in my mind after review that Cam Ward is definitely the best available QB and should go #1.  His numbers have been consistent for years now.

Cool.  Go for the record.  That requires playing in the game.  He got teammates looking to make themselves look better for next year too.   They helped him get his. 

I just don’t like the mentality.  NFL might should start paying more attention to how these QBs are mentally wired IMO.  Think that’s  going to be a bigger and bigger thing going forward in this era.  College era of team jumping for checks and guarantees.  I’m not trying to make it just about Cam.  Just my general thoughts well beyond him,

Anyone know why Cam isn’t playing? Business decision?

He played the first half and absolutely lit them up.

They wanted to get a look at Emory Williams in the second half. With the plays they've called for him it's clear we need a Portal QB. 

We'd have won this game comfortably if we wanted to. Strange one to lose.

I totally agree and we might end up seeing players in the playoff going this route one day.  Maybe not but who knows.  If it was my kid and he was a possible top 20 pick no way in hell I want him to play.  Especially a non playoff bowl.  This is the rest of his life vs a meaningless game.

I’m kind of glad Bryce played better later in this year. As much as I like Cam Ward, I wouldn’t want to pick a QB in the top 10 this year. Next year’s class should be much better. 

I think Cam and Sanders are going to have to sit and reprogram themselves.  Both have just gotten way too use of holding the ball and thinking they are good athletes behind the LOS.  That might work in the BIG12 and ACC but it’s the recipe to get murdered in the NFL.  

Both got the talent.  But talent ain’t enough.  see Caleb Williams.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
