That said, however, because the subject is quarterback accuracy and later round prospects, I'm wondering if anyone has some thoughts on a guy who looks to be a 5th round type QB. He's James Morgan from Florida International University. Decent height, a wee bit light at about 215, and has respectable numbers. He doesn't throw many interceptions. Maybe a backup challenger? Ashwaubenon product. Local kid. UDFA most likely. Not much on him but sounds like a good kid. Guessing he's a Packer fan so he can't be all bad.

Sure .. worth a look in round two. Smart and heady .. would have time to work on increasing his arm strength and learning the system behind Rodgers for a season or two.

He's maybe a Day 3 pick if a team wants to throw a flier at him, but I don't think there really is anything there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) All things considered, I still like the value Stanley might bring on draft day. Yea, he's a Wisconsin kid but take a look at his throws. He looks tall and strong in the pocket, with enough athleticism to escape. He shows a lot of touch and maybe uses it too much, because he has an effortless motion that can deliver with pace. Very much a prototype guy with a strong overhand delivery. When forced to deliver flat footed you can see he has a live arm. Maybe a bit of young Roethlisberger ? Maybe a little Cousins, who was taken in the 4th Round ? Might be overlooked because he isn't a gadget guy everyone could be looking for. Things at the QB spot could change drastically by the time Draft Day rolls around. Is there really that big a difference between a guy like Stanley and some of the more publicized guys ? He seems to have some of the unteachable tools. I know some question his accuracy, but the same was said about Josh Allen. All that being said, 99.99% of the population would be just as successful throwing darts when it comes to evaluating the QB spot.

I think he's well worth it if we're able to address our major needs with the first four or five picks. Really don't know why more people aren't talking about him. On the other hand, he's not exactly playing for what could be considered a winning program at the moment. Sure they knocked around USC, but they won that game with defense more than anything. I think studying Rodgers would do Stanley well and while he wouldn't be heir apparent, he may be able to net us a nice supplemental pick down the road if we can groom him.

Like who? He only had Fant and Hockenson for a year or two IIRC and a smaller slot receiver who all graduated before this past season. Plus you have to consider the fact that Iowa's offense is pretty conservative and rather dated TBH. Edited January 9, 2020 by Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighCalebR Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) How do we get Denzel Mims, Albert Okwuegbunam, Jordan Elliot and Kenneth Murray in town? Someone do a mock, make this happen and I'll give you footballs. Watching Mims, now you have to also have Aretavious Hendrix in the 7th Edited January 13, 2020 by HighCalebR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Right now Isaiah Simmons ILB Clemson looks like the answer to our ILB need. I have no idea if he is rated that high or what but he is playing faster than everyone else and is making plays everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
