My opinion: Justin Fields will flame out as fast or faster than Dwayne Haskins

And it has nothing to do with the alma mater.

Change my mind.

Faster, he has serious character issues in addition to accuracy and size problems

I mean he might, but other than going to OSU they are nothing alike skillset-wise. Why are you comparing them?

I think he has serious injury issues. Every time he played a big game and got hit he was always hurt.

Wrong. He will be way better than Haskins.

Nah. He has a way higher upside and it'd be really hard for him to be dumber

I have never seen the guy play. Number one thing in the NFL is accuracy. Nothing can cover for inaccuracy.

Is Fields accurate?

It’s hard to argue pure conjecture.

Like almost every situation in the NFL these days, it depends on whether he gets drafted by a flaming heap of shite for a franchise or not...

I'm not a Fields guy but you are 100% in the wrong here.

Am I alone in thinking that's not a succulent measure of accuracy? That percentage depends on the type of throw he is asked to make and does not account for difficulty of the throw or ball placement.

Well his whole life hes been the guy and has lived up to it. Ran a 4.4at pro day at 225 pounds. However legit that may be . Either way its fast.
I've heard scouts say he has ,at least ,the same arm strength as trevor Laurence ,maybe stronger.

Yes hes been accurate at every level up to this point. Hes not the same guy as haskins. Haskins had zero dual threat in him.

Leveling serious blanket charges of racism at Georgia to help his transfer because he didn't have the chest to compete is a pretty serious character flaw

He had the fewest yards on screen passes out between him Lawrence and Jones.
