FSU - Auburn Game Thread

[CPcavedweller]

Yup...

Jimbo is a good coach and was tutored by 2 of the best ever. Florida is obviously a great place to get great CFB players so FSU will be contenders for the next 10 years at least.

Jimbo is what Florida St has going for it. I personally am a VT fan and it's been tough wondering what the fug has gone wrong, but Beamer needs to take notes on what you look for in a quarterback. Logan Thomas is a damn lower tier quarterback who couldn't hold Duke's QBs jock. Whatever he saw in him I'd like to know.

[CPcavedweller]

Yeah, a little more Jamarcus than Cam. Time will tell guess.

He won't get hurt running the ball though. Too thick in the britches.

He needs to work on his release to be more effective. He makes quick decisions but it takes a while to get the ball from draw to release. If he gets that squared away then he will be great wherever he goes.

I want Tre Mason. He's another Boynton Beach native.

I want Mason because he's a younger version of Dwill.

He may very well be a great pro QB, but going by the eyeball test I think he's going to have to put in a lot of work. Plus, as fieryprophet noted, he looks like he has a fat body type. That he's only 19 hurts more than helps in my opinion.

 

I don't know, he just doesn't strike me as a success at the NFL level.

Liked him too.

I tend to agree that Winston doesn't possess an ounce of Cam's insane athleticism and his ceiling but they're almost identical while in the pocket. I swear, it was like watching Newton passing for FSU tonight.

 

He resembled Josh Freeman in the pocket more than Cam to me, especially with the slightly three-quarters release. Cam has more of an over-the-top delivery, particularly when he steps into his throws properly.

[Delhommey]

I will admit that, he is no where ready for the pros right now, even if FSU does win he has too many holes in his game at this point.

It really sounded ridiculous that he would be a consensus #1 pick next year

What were they thinking ?!!!

To be fair, Newton's delivery in college wasn't exactly what it is now.

 

As far as Winston, I said Leftwich, but I could see Freeman.

 

I will admit up front that I spent more time watching receivers this game than I did QBs (seeing as we don't need one of those) but I saw enough of Winston to think he's going to make a pretty good pro.

Stupid, the only thing I could think of

 

Winston is good but he needs serious work before entering for the pros, might take another 2 years

Winston's release looked quicker than Leftwich's almost glacial one, and he's definitely a promising prospect. But I wasn't blown away, and will definitely be curious to see how he handles less surrounding talent. Wasn't really sold on any of the receivers either, although a lot of holding and PI calls were going unflagged.

[antame]

He's ALOT more mobile than Leftwich, and that dimension alone makes him a more viable pro in today's NFL.

 

Can't put my finger on it,  but something tells me he's going to average 4 picks a game as a pro.

Tight up his release and all doubt go away I think.

Didn't get as much out of the game on Benjamin - other than that he's huge - as I would have liked, but is Marques Colston really all that special for much more than that?  I'd at least be good with seeing what Ricky Proehl could teach him.

 

Auburn had some interesting skill position guys too, though no one I'd kill to have.
