I've watched a lot of his actual games. Watch those instead of highlights and you'll see it.

I've watched quite a few of Oregon's games too, I namely last season when he was considered to be the #1 overall pick for a bit, haven't watched much this season, or much CFB, and have relied on highlights.

Oregon's system was often one read, but unlike some other Oregon QBs he went through his progressions often enough. My point with the highlight video is you could see his head move in these videos. It's not like he's an all pro at it or anything, but he's ahead of most QBs some previous drafts in that regard. Tua definitely has him beat in that regard but, also, his lower body injuries scare the fug outta m.e

One read dink and dunker. Maybe he's capable of doing more, but that's what he did at Oregon.

I know--and Oregon QBs have a long history of busting. 

I always look back to see what scouts said about players--with the success rates of drafted players, they should shut their damn mouths:

“He can thread the needle, but usually goes with his primary receiver and forces the ball to him even when he’s in a crowd. He’s a gutty, gambling, cocky type. Doesn’t have great tools, but could eventually start.” – Anonymous scout, 1979

Herbert has the great tools, and Joe Montana had the cockiness/charisma.  Similar comment.

I see both sides, but if the offense was designed to be quick hitting and he was coached to make the read and deliver the ball, then that does not mean that he cannot.  At the SR bowl, he was not in that dink and dunk offense and was the MVP.

We don’t need a qb we have cam . He gives us the best chance to win we don’t need some system qb that never did anything special in college . No way ! 

What is Cam's record since November, 2018?

How many games did he miss during that time? 

How is that giving us the best chance to win?

Don't let this be a surprise to anyone. We need to have someone behind Cam due to his injury history. After seeing Kyle Allen & Will Grier, we know what we have or better yet, don't have.

Were drafting a QB @ #7.

Bold and Sassy.
