And deadly accurate. Not saying Young does not have accuracy, but if he is compared to Brees because of stature you cannot overlook how accurate Brees was.

If the Bears did trade him you would have to ask yourself why. I would be concerned if they traded him straight up for a #9. I am not sold on him as a passer yet either.

I would not be surprised if ESPN picked up Romo. They sure spent enough time overinflating how good he was as a player.

I understand the idea, but I am not sure there is a franchise guy in the group that is being talked about at the top of this draft. They all give me concern about there ability to play this game and stay healthy at the next level. The guys below them all seem like potential guys that will need time to develop. Not sure trading up makes much sense.

I am going to have to pass (no pun intended) he throws to many to the opponent IMO.

True or not. You can watch most of the guys that rely heavily on their feet through college and when the heat gets turned up their footwork goes out the window. Their instincts that they have had their entire football life take over and it is able to get them through those years, but the pros it will not. The entire games is faster and the windows are much tighter. Why do you think so many of these college phenoms bust? I find it crazy that everyone makes excuses for Cam not being all world in the NFL. His line sucked, he had no receivers, now apparently no one ever coached him either. Bottom line he did not play smart, always took the big hit when running, was not accurate with the football and did not know how to turn it around in a game when he started out poorly. Sure he could have had better pieces around him at times, but he is not faultless in how his career ended.

Problem with bad footwork is that when under pressure almost all of them revert back to it. Cam was that way. Being able to rely on elite athleticism and not their arm and sound mechanics is hard to turn around. I am not sure their is a franchise QB in this draft and if there is I don't think it is someone being thrown around at the top of the draft. It will be some late round late bloomer type.

Von Miller says we should definitely bring Cam back.

If Wilks has a case then I am suing as well. I think I have damage to my eyes from the blaze of that grease fire I watched this season.

All this, but really Cam did not help his career longevity by not learning to slide. He took way too many hits and it would have ended prematurely even without the interception injury. His concussion against Atlanta was a prime example of his showing up his competition prior to getting in the end zone and paying the price. I still do not believe he had the makeup to be an all time great for a long period of time. Accuracy issues combined with a poor attitude when games did not start well plagued him his entire career.

Dude is just getting started and he is already this good imagine how good he will be when he has some experience.

agree

Tua is not traveling due to concussion protocol which is understandable in the healing process. Most players will travel unless some sort of rehab or risk is involved with the travel. I don't think that is the case with Lamar. I get coaches coach, but there is some experience even having Lamar on the sideline and having Huntley be able to talk with him. Or how about just having your teammates backs and being there to support them.

I don't give a crap if he plays or not. If there is significant risk of further injury then don't take the field I am all good with that. Health is totally separate from being there supporting your teammates in an important game. Maybe he would see something on the field that he could relay to Huntley and help them win. Smacks of a ME mentality that will never allow him to be the leader he needs to be to win a championship. Don't want him on my team if that is the case.

What was the reason Lamar was not at the game at all? Was this a team decision or did he just decide not to come and help his team in any way that he could? If the latter I don't want anything to do with him on our team

Possibly your overall health and ability to continue to play the position effectively and as we've seen the runs become less dynamic as they age and get beat up and if the arm is not there they are pretty much done.

There comes a time in EVERY NFL players career when they need to start relying on their brain and arm more than their legs. Running quarterbacks are going to regress as runners over time and often their bodies give out from all of the hits. If they have been able to make up for inconsistent passing abilities ie Cam by their overall athleticism and running it will come back to haunt them later in their careers. I have not watched much of Jackson to be quite honest so I guess my question would be, does he have the consistency when it comes to accurately throwing the football and making the correct reads? If so and you can design an offense that he only runs when absolutely necessary then he may be worth it, but if not then I would say no. The threat of a QB running is a great thing to have, but it should be the exception. Josh Allen is going to need to learn this as well or he will be in trouble in a few years. He takes way too many hits when he runs. Mahommes is much better at using his run as a threat.

He would probably be good to get the team on track, but I don't think he would stay long term. He has a way of wearing out his welcome and does not seem to really care to stay in any one spot very long.

Terrell Owens just said he can still play and help the niners down by the goal line. I bet if we bring Cam back we could lure TO as well. Will be awesome.

I think Jake Delhomme can still throw a football too. Let's go old school and get the band back together.

Nobody has any real film on these 2. Happens all the time. Let teams get some film learn their tendencies, strengths, weaknesses etc. and then see how they do when their best attributes are mitigated by a good defensive coordinator. Not saying they won't be able to overcome them, but there is a reason many quarterbacks struggle in year 2 and many end of as journeymen after that season.

I fixed it for him.

lol hot take more like hot pile

Accuracy is the key to a good QB in the NFL over most factors. Drew Brees too short but could put a ball anywhere. Richardson and other very athletic quarterbacks have not had to rely on this as they are able to create without having to be accurate. I don't see what all the hype is about. Does no good to throw it 50 yards if it does not hit its intended target. I've watched him play a lot and unless someone can get his to forget all the bad footwork habits etc I just don't see him panning out. When it is flight or fight time they all revert back to the bad habits in the heat of the moment.

I swear every time I see this picture I think of that kid in grade school that always crapped his pants. Hell he looks like he just did or in the process.
