I really thought this dude would bust so hard due to his wonderlic and seemingly lack of ability to understand an nfl offense.

It’s a new age in the nfl. I was dead wrong.

Don't be so hard on yourself. Look at the bright side, he could still get injured and end up out of the league; then your prediction wouldn't look as bad.

Huge blotch on your NFL scout job resume; you may not get a chance now.

I didnt think it was anything other than he lacked the throwing ability. He still could easily fizzle out like Kaepernick. It's still very likely he gets injured as a running QB.


Outside of that hes been very good.

If you watched him in college against talented defenses he gave you no reason to believe in him. The Citrus Bowl against LSU was pathetic.

Don’t worry. I’m a Ravens fan and cussed like a sailor when we let Flacco go. I thought Lamar Jackson was horrible.

I was dead wrong.

Damn, you must have thought he was the worst QB prospect ever to say you cussed when y'all let Flacco go for him. Flacco sucks arse.

I’m happy we let Joe go, even though I appreciate him balling out the one post season. Did i have questions whether we should give Joe a chance in the chargers playoff loss last year, yes. But Harbaugh was dead on right keeping Jackson in even though he had his worst game as a pro that day.

Flacco single handedly was the reason why the Ravens were so mediocre since 2012 because we had always wanted a franchise QB and were in secure about letting Flacco walk when he gambled on himself and won that year. We then never had the cap space or on field leadership to overcome how big the talent drop was with having to pay Flacco so much rather than spend it on other players that could make Flacco look good.

No one drafted him in my fantasy league.

Not 10 minutes after our draft Luck announced his retirement.

The guy that drafted him emergency picked up Lamar.

Or RG3 who was excellent until his injury.

If Jackson stays healthy he will continue to be good.

He still doesn’t understand NFL offenses. Harbaw completely revamped the team to fit his peculiar strengths. They’ll make playoffs but will never advance very far IMO

Besides the Ravens offense?

Designing your offense around your players? What a crazy idea.

If only someone's future could be defined in one meaningless bowl game. A game in which his OLine was absolutely pathetic

I’m with you. I thought he was going to be awful. I usually don’t miss, but I did hard on him.

Seems I was wrong as well. But I will be interested to see next season when teams have a full year of film on him.

Good thing is nobody knows you or cares about your nfl qb evaluations. Keep your head up sport.
