I don’t think Justin Fields is good

Watching Justin Fields last night and throughout his career, he’s not very good.
He locks onto his first receiver and if that guy isn’t schemed open by Day, his head usually drops. No play better symbolized this than when Fields didn’t even recognize we were down a player on a crucial third down. He again just tried to rifle a pass to his first read.
Honestly, it’s no wonder he looked completely lost in a more pro style scheme in his freshman year at UGA. The guy is basically sophomore year Jalen Hurts with a bigger arm.
Everyone will say Mac Jones just had a better supporting cast and I would draft Fields over Jones on potential. But right now, Mac Jones is a better QB.

So is he Jalen Hurts with a better arm or is he not very good?

Well that’s a dishonest way to describe it
Fields is much much better than Fromm could ever dream of being

NFL scouts must be OSU homers too since he’s a 1st Round grade for draft pick.

I think he's not great, not terrible. He, Lawrence and Mac have benefited from loaded teams. I think if Fields got into a good organization he'd be ok, but he won't have a career if the Jets take him.

OSU needs to be sure to only play 2-3 games next year. They won't have to worry about injuries and I'm sure they would get in.
Posted on 1/12/21 at 1:24 pm to TomRollTideRitter
I agree. I wouldn't draft him with a top pick
Posted on 1/12/21 at 1:24 pm to TomRollTideRitter
Not sure Mac is the better QB. and would take Fields over Mac in the Draft

The hitch in his mechanics bothers me for some reason

He hit some great deep shots in the Clemson game. I thought even on some tough medium length sideline routes, he did well in the games I saw. Do you think he will have a better career than Tua? I do.

This is a discussion on how good or bad he is, not how bad we should or shouldn't feel for a player who only played 8 games. Regardless of how many games he played, he was supposedly hurt while playing Alabama.

Keeping it within Ohio State QB's to get drafted in the first round, I think Haskins was a much better passer than Fields and we see how well that went, though Fields likely has a stronger arm. Fields is so athletically gifted that it covers up much of this inability as a passer.

I think he’s really good at improvising and throwing on the run, which makes him hard to defend for most college defenses.
Whether that translates to the NFL depends on him he goes to a team that will utilize his skillset correctly.

I think he is a great college player who will flame out in the nfl
