I was thinking the same! Savage isnt no garoppolo (if i spelled it right) and jt barret would have been a 1st-2nd rounder if ohio state won the championship. So he has the talent and hill has many tangibles to his game. I figure barret and hill will battle out for the two.. Hopefully they are amazing for us.. I dont see savage staying unless one of the two look bad

Um......No, he couldn't beat out CARDALE JONES as the starter lol. He is a good leader, and athlete but he has a slow release and below average arm strength.

We are severely lacking in depth behind Drew period....but Silvers has a better release, accuracy and arm strength than Barret. REALLY would not want to rely on ANY of them though lol



Barret's Draft Profile:

quote:

Weaknesses
Operation time and ball handling are a little slow
Not a naturally accurate passer
Makes receivers work too hard
Ball placement can be a struggle even on swing passes and short throws
Completed a measly 28 percent of his throws over 21 yards this season
Seam curls come wide open and he will opt for safe throws in middle of the field
Misses opportunities to challenge safeties
Gets it out a step late on intermediate and deep throws
Halts progressions early rather than allowing route development
Three-quarter release makes him short in the pocket and allows defenders to maul his pass attempts
Release and arm strength are below average
Allows rushers to get on top of him
