I think it’s crazy how everyone wants Willis but he won’t be starting this year he’s not ready. I don’t want Darnold starting for this team this year at all. I don’t want Pickett either but poo go get Minshew.

Most qbs drafted in the first play year one. Especially if there are no better options ahead of them. What's a better teacher than learn on the job. He can't look much worse than Wilson or Lawrence I say.

I don't think people are so much saying QBs that can run can't win a Super Bowl, its more QBs that can run, but are limited working from the pocket.

Roders is mobile, but he happens to be pretty good from the pocket, same with someone like Young.

 

QBs that can’t read from the pocket won’t last in the NFL period. The argument was against Lamar who can absolutely read from the pocket when needed/asked by his coaches. Cam was the same way as is Murray.

the fug is mr scott arguing about now

Who's arguing?

We're talking about running quarterbacks vs dual threat quarterbacks. It's a very civil discussion and nobody's angry.

I'm less sure about Murray, especially after that playoff disaster and his quote about not needing to watch film.

Massive contingent on hand but really odd that the Seahawks aren’t present (unless this person is missing them).

No one from Seattle?

The others I get because they all have quarterbacks, but the Seahawks not being there is weird.

Willis comes in at a full 1.5 inches smaller than Lamar Jackson but he’s about 15 lbs. heavier.

I wonder what his deal is with not wanting to run considering mobility is one of his biggest strengths.  I dont believe he ran at the combine either.

Wow so 11 of these teams said no thanks to the Pickett pro day lol. 

[Shocker]

I keep flipping between Malik and Pickett but I am going to stick with Malik as the guy I would pick.  If Pickett is very average next season what bothers me most is his upside is much lower than Willis.  He is near a finished product?  I want the guy with upside we can develop.

It's literally the dame argument I had on the huddlein 2011 before we drafted cam. Same arguments. He can't throw if he could he wouldn't be running. Well if Payton manning could run like cam or Jackson I'm sure he would run more as well. Even with Willis... all I see is he smart has a higher wonderlic score and he's accurate.

Yet and still people question his ability to throw because he runs some other old school good Ole boy mindset. 

What qb that actually runs a lot has won a super bowl recently?  It's great in the regular season but doesnt seem to work as much in the playoffs.  Manipulating the pocket and sensing pressure is much more important than a qb full blown running.

nothing to gain really.

Everyone already thinks he is really fast.

Running a 4.5 has a greater chance of hurting his stock then running a 4.4 does in helping his stock.

Doesn't bother me, honestly. I'm not really interested in quarterback 40 times.

What does he has to I gain from running? Only negatives. If he runs slower than expected his stock takes a hit. If he runs a 4.4 or so all people going to do is say he's a running qb or he can play rb some The Golden Calf of Bristol hybrid role package nonsense. Kyler didn't run.. people just accepted he was fast. Lamar didn't run...people just accepted he was fast..
