Would've agreed with you before yesterday but Daniels settled into that game and began dropping absolute dimes and making great reads. Those were NFL caliber throws


To be a "serviceable NFL QB", there are some things that a QB has to have beyond just making throws and reads in a college game against MS State.

I don't know - I'm really asking here. Does JD have them?

1. Size -- at 6.4 and 210 pounds (which I don't believe he actually weighs), ia JD big enough for the NFL?
2. Release time -- Pass rush is waaaay faster in the NFL, so QB's need to have an extremely quick drop and throw. Pro scouts time that -- I think it's like 3 seconds or less? Does JD have that?
3. Throwing mechanics -- several things have to be "right", and I know that pro scouts can see them on film. Does JD now have "correct" throwing mechanics? I know last year he did not.
3. Experience with Pro style offense -- not absolutely required of a prospect, but it does play into the decision to draft a QB. Does JD have experience with offenses in College that translate well to NFL?

He’s coming into his own and we are looking great offensively

Bro, he isn’t going to be a serviceable NFL QB. Give it up.


I remember when people said that about the Alabama QB that got benched in the National Championship game and some Freshman came in and took over.

I can't remember that guys name but I think he might play for the Eagles now.

So after what 46-47 games you think he finally got it? Ok.

Maybe. We will see.

He was nearly perfect and deserves to be named player of the week nationally. Did all the things everyone has clamored for him to do. Only critique is he needs to protect his body better on runs and slide more often.

Will he play like this all year? Or will it be like last year? Had the great stretch against Florida, OM and Bama then looked absolutely horrible against Arkansas and TAMU. It’s a valid question but certain posters here lose their shite on anyone who has the audacity to ask given the large sample size JD5 has at this point.
