Who knows . If you fancy someone you go for it I guess . It they think they all will be gone by 7.
I guess.
See burrows has question marks too. He didn't hack it at Ohio state. He wasn't even on the radar last year. Then goes to all word status in one year. He's also 23. He's a one year wonder. He could be the man. He could of peaked. He's old for a rookie. He's not a guy that a year was even in the top three round discussions
He looked exponentially better than Trubisky and he went Top 5...hell those idiots even gave up capital to move up one spot to take him
Couldn't hack it might be a bit harsh. He may have just been buried under a coaches fav. Im not intimately aware of the Ohio State situation, but we're going through similar stuff at Nebraska right now. Ironically, Burrow attempted to transfer to Nebraska, but was rejected becuase Scott Frost has what he thinks is God's gift to collegiate QB'ing in Adrian Martinez. But Luke McAffrey is in town, and is utterly outplayed Martinez whenever given the chance. If Frost doesn't open up the position for a true competition this upcoming season, McAffrey is likely to transfer. I'd hate for people to assume he couldn't hack it here so he transfered, when the reality was he isnt being given the opportunity to prove himself so he left.
i agree, im just saying there are question marks, its not like he was a sure fire first rounder..
well LSU hasnt had a qb or passing attack for , well, forever. Most transfers would rather go to memphis so they can at least show off their arm, and play a bit, not hand it off 50 times and throw dumps all day at LSU, granted that changed, and part of that chagned because of burrow. not hacking it may be harsh, but he did lose out to haskins, and its not like haskins was amazing this year. Im not saying hes not good, not worthy etc, just that their are questions. That is all.
What flashes? Lol. Dude was horrid all year long. I honestly haven't watched much worse QB play since we switched from the triple option days where we basically had a RB playing QB. He was HORRIFIC. His supporters blame the line, I say, well, if the line sucks, why the hell are you patting the ball for six, seven, eight seconds with a wide open dump off on both sides of the field on a consistent basis. Dude took more unnecessary sacks and created more unnecessary throw always than I've ever seen. So aggravating, especially with a friggin electric option Luke Luke he could've turned to and who produced, every single time he was called on. GAH!!!
And we know a great system QB in college, like Haskins was for what Ohio state needed from him, and his performance in the NFL, isnt necessarily condemn Burrows NFL potential just becuase he couldn't beat him out.
Hah wel he's athletic I'll give him that, more what I was getting at. Admittedly didn't watch much. I assume frost is looking for the multi threat qb
I agree on all points. But I also disagree to a point on workouts when it comes to qbs. A billion workout warrior and cannon armed qbs test out well and suck. Can throw it 100 yards and have the brain of an ant or the accuracy of Kyle boller. Qbs are just a different thing.
True there, perhaps I worded it differently than I meant it. sometimes drills can show cracks in what you can and cant phsyically do, but they rarely if ever show cracks in your ability to functionally play QB in the NFL.
Well, Luke looks to be a young clone of Christian who can throw 40 yards on a rope. I dunno if CMAC can throw, but Luke looks the same as CMAC with the ball in his hands, but smaller, not likely to be a successful RB should he try a position switch. Maybe a WR.. BUT, he's as duel threat as it comes
Oh absolutely. No position is a bigger crap shoot. At least imho. When you get lucky you pray to the lord they stay healthy and your protect and pay that man.
Well shit then get him in there. Frost isn't an idiot? But you know that situation much better than me.
Frost has been an idiot in my mind since the day he sat in tiny town Nebraska as a high school senior and choose Stanford and Bill Walsh over Nebraska.
