It’s hard to say because he basically wasn’t pressured all season. Amazingly Arkansas gave him the most trouble....... it will be very different at the next level.

Average maybe. I think long term Tua winds up with the better career

Well Coker was a UFA with the Cardinals and didn’t make the team after camp. Mac is going to be a potential first round pick. So I think he has a career in the NFL longer than a few weeks.

Best O line
Best RB
Best offensive mind

He isn’t going to be a great pro. Hope the saints stay far away

He is the reason why 2019 LSU > 2020 Alabama.

Burrow buries him.

His biggest strengths are his smarts, his anticipation, and his movement in the pocket. He lacks much athleticism and his arm is just ok.


Think this is a good assessment of him. He has all the time in the world but he throws a nice deep ball. Seems to have the intangibles but it's impossible to know for sure with his pass protection and incredible receiver separation. His passing stats, like most QBs not named Burrow, definitely nosedive when under pressure, so that could be a concern.

Depends a lot on where he lands - since he will go late first round i think he has a chance to develop and could be a pro bowler at some point

His arm strength is far superior to Dorsey's

Starr and Stabler and Namath would probably disagree if not for the dead thing with 2 of them.

He's going to be like Colt McCoy and carve out a nice 10+ year career as a solid backup QB.

It's easy when your receivers don't have a defender within 15 yards of them all night

Well this is the stupidest fricking take on Jones I've seen so far.

Impressive.

For some reason unknown to even me, I foresee a Matt Flynn type career for him.
