Levis and that Princeton kid could be a fun combo we realistically could land.  Smooth.

I'd rather the team trade up no matter what it takes to land the guy they want than settle for one they might not believe in just because it's a more realistic pick.

Someone has a little Haener crush. His is flying under the radar because of his injury.

I do I do.  He's got skills.  Think he could kill it in a Shanahan type offense. 

Good decision maker, high football IQ, excellent presnap.  I'm interested to see where he lands.  He's not at the top tier by any means but I think he's got a future.  Could instantly be a backup for a guy like Cousins.  I think O'Connell could do some work with him in Minny. Not a bad idea for a team like Miami as well.  Would be instantly better than Thompson if Tua goes down again.

I would've really preferred him there say something along the lines of "I have all the confidence in the world in my ability to throw the football but I'm not gonna sit here and claim to be better than a former NFL MVP. That would be disrespectful. I gotta go out there and prove it."

Yeesh.  I'm just identifying a fun combo, not making any declarations haha.

Yeah, his a talent hasn't stood out in this group. Stetson Bennett has been the best thrower in this group by a pretty comfortable margin. He might have a better shot of translating to the NFL than I previously thought. I thought he was a good college QB made to look great by surrounding talent. But he's throwing the ball really damn well out there. He's standing out.

 

 

100%

Levis has been okay, but Stetson Bennett has been the best by a good margin.

Wait what..... 

It's true. He's out here spinning the damn thing. This group was supposed to be the Levis showcase but Bennett is showing him up.

Stet is having a real good day

Well gotta back that up in a BIG way now.

[TheCasillas]

@LinvilleGorgeright now on NFL+ Kurt Warner and Steve Smith Sr. are talking about how inconsistent Stetson has done today... so Id like to understand where you are seeing he is the best thrower by a wide margin...

They have used descriptors like "Robotic" "Cutting off his drop back" "drifts into his throws" (that leads to sacks) and "would like to see more consistency with his ball placement"

 

extra note: Kuurt Warner is a big fan of Stet.... and SS sr. is giving him poo for it.

Ball placement. He’s hitting guys in stride. They aren’t having to slow down and wait for the ball to get there. I noticed it too. On. The last three drills the other QBs have not been on point with placement and Stet has been so it stood out.

You guys have not learned a damn thing about the combine. Winning a drill does not mean squat.

Sadly that's not how these kids think - CJ Stroud stepped in it yesterday.

His footwork is horrendous... They havent been hyping Stetson as much as this board right now.
