He runs a 5.12 40 so you'll get Ryan Mallett comparisons. 

Buuuut he has a bit more NFL level traits.  I've been leaning on the "take a stab at him" side of things but prefer Wilson as the #3 QB.

Trask & Lance are the ones I'm having trouble parsing out.

From the little I have seen from him, the only knock on Wilson is his frame.  He has to get bigger in the NFL.  And I would be cool with that if he sits a year

def a concern.  i get nervous every time teddy twig legs has defenders near him

Kyle Trask is not Patrick Mahommes. Not even close. 

Trask is like the 6th best QB in this draft, and thats not a knock on him. The QB class is stacked like no other, might be a better draft PROSPECT wise than even 1983. If your team is needy for a QB and you pick in the the top half of the first round you should find a quality one, and smart teams will pick one instead of some dumb poo like a Florida State DT thats gonna end up being totally mediocre.

I honestly don't think he has much of a chance to be any higher than the 5th QB.

So basically he Jimmy Clausen?

I wouldn't say that. Trask is kinda the opposite. Clausen was a one year wonder in college after being hyped through HS as the next Joe Montana. That dude was HYPED. Trask is a late boomer who just started to emerge last year. Trask has a better chance than Clausen simply because he sees the field better and throws with a lot more anticipation. Clausen was a wait and see it develop first QB who lacked the physical tools to deliver on it. If you're going to wait in the NFL, you better have elite talent (prime Cam being a good example).

It looks like all scheme and playmakers propping Trask up to me.  He lobs the ball into a wide open zone/receiver, lobs to a mismatch WR/TE (Pitts and others) who wins the 50/50 ball, or throws a bubble screen to Toney who does all the work for him. 

You've spoken a lot of truth IMO.

If we dont get Mitch Trubisky we may as well not draft Patrick Mahommes

Trask is a 2nd tier QB in this draft. There are 4 top tier QB prospects -- Lawrence, Fields, Lance/Wilson in that order. I completely agree with you about still going for a QB if we miss on Lawrence/Fields (which we will) but don't agree that Trask is one to target in the 1st if we miss out on the others. If all 4 are somehow gone before we pick I would not reach for Trask; take BPA and then look at other QBs later. In my opinion though, that's incredibly unlikely. I'll think we'll have 1 or both of Lance/Wilson sitting there for the taking, and we need to jump on it.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
