Tebow also had some of the worst mechanics I've ever seen on a QB. Barrett doesn't exactly have that issue. His aren't flawless but damn, they're not Tebow-bad.
If the rumors are true Juju smith Schuster and adoree jackson will be the top two. I have more faith in Adoree having success tho. With few exceptions. SC players to have success in the NFL. Have been primarily Offensive lineman. And defensive players. Add in his return ability and Adoree has the most potential to be an AP
Do the lions need a wr? Leinart is available
He was a full back.
The Lions are close to being a super bowl contender. All they need is a QB, RB, a couple WR, a TE, a whole OLine, couple corners, couple of safeties, a DLine, about 4 linebackers, a punter and a place kicker. Other than that we are set.
Could be worse, he could have passing abilities of Denard Robinson.
Very fair points, I definitely see what you're saying simply from the schematic point in regards to playing for Meyer. I will say, however, that there are a lot more elements of that system being put into place in the NFL these days that can help talented QBs like this make the transition. However he would definitely need a couple of years to season. Honestly, if the Dolphins get tired of Tannehill's crap, that offense would be absolutely perfect for Barrett. Timing and touch are big parts of why Barrett is successful, and those are very big in Miami's offense.
Much more NFL ready than the Lions are.
That's just sad. But true
