National Championship Thread: 3 The Ohio State Buckeyes vs 1 Alabama Crimson Tide 8 PM All ESPN Networks

QB ranking in my humble opinion.

1st Tier Lawrence all by his self

2nd tier Fields, Wilson and Lance

3rd Ridder, Jones and trask etc.  Waste of a pick tier.

[Brooklyn 3.0]

I mean ... if you're getting giddy over Lance and his one huge season ... why not give the same giddyness to Mac and his one huge season? I don't think we should draft him, mind you. But I think he's better than some in here say he is.

I have seen Mac Jones in few games this season and I like what I see.  He’s smart.  He takes what defenses give him.  He would dink and dunk and then hit a big one.

Mac Jones is methodical.  He's a Bill Belichick guy if there ever was one.  I could very well see him up in Boston next season.

Mac Jones will be a 1st rounder. The kid is one of the best QBs in college. The people who can’t believe it are ignorant.

He may be a first rounder, but if you think he's going anywhere near the top 10, then you're delusional.

I’m not giddy over either one of them but Lance has a bigger arm and is a far superior runner. People are enamored with his physical traits.

Ben Roethlisberger was neither throughout his career, but when he was younger, even he had some noted mobility. Now that he's lost it, he is not the QB that he once was.

You're trying to pretend like Mac Jones has shown some mobility, when he absolutely hasnct, and that's one of the knocks on his game as compared to Lawrence, Fields, Lance and Wilson. 

what does Ben roethlisberger have to do with mac Jones, that's still a definition of "mobility" centered exclusively around physical attributes, were talking about a Matt ryan breed of prospect with high tier processing and efficiency of movement

these traits are still highly coveted by organizations, and ultimately supersede the ability to run or boot between the whistles

Ridder is going back to school.

Even I think Teddy could do damage if we had time to develop or sign five elite offensive lineman. 

Smith would have had to do a figure 8 around that LB and caught the ball falling out of bounds if Teddy was throwing him that last TD pass. Teddy's had plenty good protection at times and still flubbed those long throws. 

Teddy had 3 WRs who played very well and made him look better than he is. That sounds similar, but Jones just slowed Smith down a little compared to Teddy making his WRs come to complete stops or run out of bounds.

Jones is projected to go in the 1st-2nd round. I’ve seen many mock drafts having him in the 1st round. Very few had him in the 2nd. The Notre Dame game and this game tonight will just solidify him even more to go in the 1st round. You have no clue what you’re talking about. Just hating Jones because he’s another white kid playing QB at Alabama under Saban. 

The last line is stupid. Be better than that.

Tua and Jalen were white?

Why stop there? Wilson is a one season wonder too! Maybe even go ask all the professional scouts too, the ones that have Lance as a day one prospect, possibly top 10,

I don’t disagree with any of this. I’m just pointing out elite lines would give him more time to throw and make reads. He made a lot of poor ones under pressure towards the end of games. I don’t want Teddy here.
