Alright, alright, I've agonized enough...
OBUDan selects:
Asiantii Woulard, QB, UCLA
Ask jembeurt, I've gone round and round on QBs. When I started my depth list, I had about a half dozen I liked, which was my cue to hold off, because I knew I wouldn't be disatisfied with the choice. Funny enough, Woulard wasn't one of them. A couple of them are actually still on the board... so I'm gonna hold out hope for the supplemental rounds to snatch 'em.
Anywho, there's so stinkin' much to love about Woulard. Big kid with prototypical frame (6'4, 200). He's got some explosive running ability. But he wants to operate in the pocket. He's only been playing QB for 2 years. He won elite 11 MVP. Coaches have raved about his decisiveness, how quickly he gets the ball out. He throws with some smoke. Can throw from all angles and spots on the field. But he's actually got pretty good foot work. He's very coachable and always improving. All I see is upside, upside, upside. He's a good, level-headed kid. He plays in one of the most talent-rich states in the nation and excelled.
So what's the catch? Doesn't that sound like a surefire, 5-star talent with an offer list that's as deep as it is long? That's what I can't figure out. He's pretty highly ranked (4-star on all sites, top 150ish recruit, top 8 dual-threat QB). But doesn't that seem low for a guy with all his promise? And why is UCLA probably the best school to offer him? What am I missing? FSU and Miami passed. Oregon didn't offer.
Those things bother me. Which is why this pick is so hard for me. There's actually a guy I LIKE better, but I'm going on pure physical upside and talent here, because I do think Woulard is more talented than him. If that guy gets taken, I'm going to kick myself, but I have a hunch he won't...
