What I want to see from Cam

So with Cam's debut over, here are some things I would like to see from him on Friday. Cam has had some time to watch some tapes and practice, so I hope/expect to see just a slight improvement.

Accuracy: The throws Cam made in the opener were all around good for him being a rookie. However, I would like to see higher than a 50% completion rate. Any improvement in this area would be great. If that means taking fewer shots down field to get a big gain, I am for it.

Keep the drive alive: Cam didn't run at all last week, which I was fine with. But with him starting, I would like to see him escape pressure and extend plays. If Cam can get a first down without getting destroyed, I say let him do it.

Get a touchdown: Whether it be a throw, a run, or a hand-off to a RB, I want to see Cam put together a drive that ends in a TD. Although I won't go crazy if it doesn't happen, I think running with the 1's should give him a better shot at scoring a TD. But field goals work too.

No fumbles: Since Cam is a rookie I can understand if he makes mistakes. Interceptions will happen. But I think Cam has much greater control over fumbling the football. I want to see him play smart, and remember to protect the football. If he is scrambling, sensing pressure, or just taking the snap from center, I want to see basic fundamentals.

That's about it. Although I want great things to happen for Cam, I only expect the basics. Smart play, slight improvements, and solid mechanics.

What do you want to see?

    • It is sad. I have people chimping out over the suggestion that Huddle consensus has been better than our franchise at draft evaluations but, quite frankly, it has been. It's not just sad, it's maddening. How is this possible??
    • Great observation. Previous GMs could have improved their draft results by just opening up the huddle. It’s sad. 
    • I'm not opposed to keeping him depending on the money. If he's going to count against the cap anyway (which the void year does) it's not the worst move unless an extension significantly raises his cap number. Even if it's just a 1-year deal that pays him a little more than what he's already on the books for. When he's been on the field he's been really good, but the issue is obviously injuries. I will say, having Corbett back as the starter would also give us good depth since Cade Mays can move into the backup role. That could be key if (more likely when) Brady Christensen leaves. Hard to say right now without seeing the potential terms of any new deal. In all honesty, though, if we're going to spend money on re-signing an OL I'd prefer trying to keep Brady Christensen. He's extremely valuable depth given he can play literally every position on the OL at a serviceable level or better, including center.
