But but JaMarcus could throw it 70 yards on one knee. Too bad he had a rock for a brain.

That only helps his argument, not yours. Burrow’s numbers improved because of a scheme change. Wilson had two years of meh against a mixed bag of meh, and then magically puts up great numbers when his competition level goes significantly down and I’m not suppose to ask questions?

I love the physical tools that Fields has, but I am not sure he has the work ethic or the leadership skills to become the face of an NFL franchise, mates

but Darnold did land in quite possibly the worst situation I’ve seen a top QB go to.



Joey Harrington was given a death sentence going to Detroit.

No idea what he could've been but drafting 1st round WR's while he's running for his life served no one.

Don’t think I’d argue, or care, who goes first between Zach Wilson and Justin Fields, but color me skeptical on Wilson — Aside from a dynamite game against Boise State, which looks to be an outlier, Wilson has been pretty pedestrian against ranked opponents since 2019.

I’d still take the QB who gets a team to out perform their talent level, like Wilson did at BYU. Over a QB from an NFL factory like Bama, Ohio St or even Clemson.

Trey Lance is the best physical QB prospect in the draft. He will likely compare very well to Josh Allen.

Yeah exactly.

Except he didn’t. I’d argue he actually held them back in 2018 and 2019. His competition was pretty much shite this year save for one team. He looked like the exact same QB he was the past two years against that team.

Downvote and OMG I have been wrong before, but I think Wilson will be the best QB, in this class.

When BYU lost to Coastal, Zach Wilson did not impress me at all

BYU's offensive line got its arse kicked that night,


To be fair to them the game was scheduled on a Wednesday, 3 days before the game. So preparation was nonexistent since they didn’t have a game scheduled, but CC did with the Fighting Freeze’s, which was canceled. And prior to that BYU played one game in the previous month, a smashing of North Alabama two weeks prior.
