With Maye's small sample size, I'd still have to say Young. His processing and feel for the position are incredible, especially for such a young guy. 

Maye has all of the physical tools, but I think he still has a lot to prove to be a top 5 pick.

In this type of hypothetical, you're just comparing traits.  Does Maye have great traits?  Sure?  I guess?  I dunno.

What I do know is that he's not up for drafting.  Neither is Williams of USC.  We have our pick of the litter of this year's QBs, and that's what matters to me.

Who has better traits?  Maye or Richardson?  Williams or Levis?  Sadly, being a QB needy team for as long as we've been, we live in this perpetual "edging" fantasy of having it all when we get nothing out of it.

Well, that time is over.  In a little over 12 hours from right now (7:45am), we'll know who our next QB is.  This wonder team of of coaches will coach them up because their livelihoods depend on it. 

If they pick the wrong guy?  Sucks for us, but I heard the QB class in 4 years is going to be something!  For many of them, it's a loss of a job.  The NFL and Tepper won't care too much as they will still get our money.

It's the same story every year. The next QB class is going to be "infinitely better" then once that season rolls around the current top QB's are dissected and we're told we should wait for the next class because it'll be better.

I dunno. I’m not sure the Pickett class was projected to be better than the Lawrence class.

I don't care for UNC but you take Drake Maye every year over Young. Anyone who watched him this year knows that.

I'm an App State fan and after the UNC - App game I went on the UNC board and let people know, because I knew, that he was a legit Heisman Contender. He didn't misfire a single ball that entire game. Pure insanity from a ball placement standpoint, speed, stature.

I'd also rather have Will Andersom than 5'9 Bryce Young so...whatever. Young is too small. He's going to get hurt. And I'll enjoy the blast from the past from 2010.

I’d bet that Young could take UNCs roster and beat State.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
