Stanford has been on VS a couple times this year and I've seen him maybe a half dozen times over the last couple seasons.

I'm more impressed with his team than him to be honest, but he certainly looks great. While a lot of people are labeling him as a "sure fire can't miss probowl QB", that is premature... but he does look good.

So did Clausen last year, though.

Didn't that leinhart guy win national championship? He had a great WR named Jarret didn't he?

Why do you think he is regressing?

I think his last two starts have easily been his best of the season. This last game was good enough to get us a win but we just didn't pull it through. He has some issues, but he has dealt with many of them, including the fumbling issues and tipped balls... Now we just need to get him some protection to see what he can do with his feet under him!

No doubt he stopped fumbling snaps and throwing higher, but those are some of the most basic fundamentals of playing QB in the league. I just don't think he realizes yet or will be taught here how he not only has to lead receivers, but they won't necessarily look open from the pocket...thus Fox/Davidson's piss poor play designs are affecting how he reads the field and his overall mental state. Today showed he could become a worse version of David Carr...dump downs for higher %, running backwards, and these things are detrimental to QBs. Just my opinion.

he does try to lead receivers. Last week he tried to lead Rosario, and Rosario at down on a route, leading to an incompletion. :(

I do think he flees backwards too often, but I can't blame him when a second after the snap there are people surrounding him, often bearing straight in at him...

I hope you're wrong about Carring him, I think it is too early to say that. We'll see how he picks it up; the last two weeks haven't been nearly that bad for him... not for this offense, anyway.

If Harbaugh can translate that coaching to the pros I'd be delighted to name him our next HC. That's a very, very well coached team. Luck is a beneficiary of that - he just happens to also be rather good (though I don't think he's anywhere near as good as people make out).

Yeah, I agree. Reading some of this board's "scouts," drafting Luck alone guarantees at least a decade worth of Superbowls... and that's being conservative.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By TD alt · Posted

      I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.
