Pickett checks all the boxes but Willis isn't even an option? Man ten years later and this stuff still hasn't changed 😂

Sorry, I forgot what a powerhouse Liberty QBs are. My bad. They are even better than the SDS QBs. Just ask the 49ers. C'mon man. Not sure what 10 years you're referring too but I'm sure it makes sense to you.

What’s your argument? Cam Newton was The Golden Calf of Bristol’s backup at UF and Justin Fields couldn’t beat Fromm at UGA. 

Was he third string?

Jarrett Stidham is definitely no The Golden Calf of Bristol. He wasn't even a Fromm. Bo Nix was trash and that's the guy who ultimately made Willis transfer. Willis couldn't beat out Bo Nix.

He had one good rushing game game against p5 opponents in the past 2 years. 

Yeah by tough to bring down I'm not trying to imply that he is a good rushing QB. He lacks the speed to be a rushing QB type, but he is hard to bring down compared to your typical QB due to his muscly build.

At this point, just draft him. At best he looks legit but we lose enough for Rhule to get canned. At worse, he’s the reason chinless lasts minimum 2 more years.

Yeah, he doesn’t have the gravitas that a Cam or big conference prospects have, but might as well gamble for him rather than an average floor/possible bust with no value type in Pickett.

You would be doing Willis a grave disservice to start the kid year one. He is in no way ready to play in the NFL.  No amount of pixie dust is going to magically turn him into a pro ready qb in one training camp.

He's a long term project that has a slim chance to work out on well coached team. He has zero chance here.

It certainly wouldn't decrease our odds of drafting in the top 5. But seriously, do you see any of these kids having a chance of success starting year one under a lame duck coach? 

I just can't see how McAdoo can pull that off while installing a new whatever bs offense he can pull out of his ass. You know he rolled Rhules play book up and threw it in the trash as soon as he was hired.

I don’t but it looks like our route to go. Sometimes you’ve passed all the on-ramps before the tunnel.

Go back and watch Fields dismantle Clemson's defense in the playoffs and then honestly try to tell me Willis has a higher ceiling. Y'all musta forgot.

Then put that tape on side by side with Willis versus any P5 team.

I like Willis a lot. IMO, he is probably the guy I would personally take in this draft.

For SURE not in the first round, though.

He's too short. He's more in the Johnny Manziel, Geno Smith class of QB's. I would be livid if we drafted him at 6, especially with 3 generational OT's at the top of the draft and one of them is slated to fall to us

Whoa dude.. all 3 of these guys aren't generational. Matter of fact I haven't heard one of them mentioned as generational all have flaws.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      By Luuuuuuuuuuke59 · Posted

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
