I told you all that Willis was more than overrated. I said that he was probably a 4th round talent being hyped beyond recognition based on the easy competition he feasted on. In general, I'm fine taking G5 QB's but they better perform when they play the big guys. Malik Willis was not that guy. He absolutely crumbled against both Ole Miss and Louisiana this past season and was one of the worst QB's when under pressure in all of college football, by passer rating.

We dodged a bullet. We got a guy that is, in a way, reminiscent of Drew Brees and his quick release and short to intermediate accuracy. His mobility is similar to Darnold but hopefully his head isn't filled with ghosts because our offensive line is about to finally allow us to possibly make a playoff run this season. 

I still want Grayson McCall in 2023. He is going to be a stud, BOOOOOK IT.

you were right 100%

Dude what did this draft prove? Overated until snaps are played. This doesn't prove squat

Well to be fair, I don't think anybody foresaw the massive drops all the quarterbacks made in this draft.

Kudos to Verge for correctly predicting Strong might go undrafted though...

I'm the willis guy but who was the draft strong guy?

Think that was Ricky.

I dont think this proves anything tho. It was a weird offseason, teams had surplus of qbs due to the movement of Watson,matt ryan and so on. Teams are still trying to offload starting caliber qbs with no where to go (baker and Jimmy) and there isnt enough spots. Pittsburg passing on any qb would have ment the same slide for whoever they didnt select.

Thing is, Willis isn't the only one who dropped.

Agreed. Whole market dropped.. Corral and rider had 1/2 grades. Espn showed a info graphic where Willis had 1% chance to be there in the 3rd. Corral I think 2% ridder was right there as well.

Well, we may have a QB similar to Brees but what we don't have is a Sean Payton.

Yeah we have Matt Rhule. Rather have Peyton. Sorry not sorry.

I posted a general discussion on it in another thread.

The reasons will be mostly individual, but it is still a collective event. And I'd add one that surprised a fair number of people.
