PacAttack04 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Anyone think DJ Uiagalelei end up being QB2 or 3(depending on what people think of Young’s size.) He isn’t really lacking anything as a QB prospect physically, he has size, bulk, some running ability, a great arm, and he has that pedigree of being an elite prospect in high school which I feel can help him, perceiving his jr. Year as living up to his potential in comparison to his poor sophomore year, Hes started off the season well, but if he finishes strong, he has that high end season on his resume with all his tools, which aren’t necessarily Richardson level tools but honestly might be the closet in the class in comparison to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted October 7, 2022 Author Share Posted October 7, 2022 Seems like a lot of people are cooling on Bryce Young. Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemson’s been good, so I don’t know why he’s not getting attention. I guess I need to watch him too now. 28 minutes ago, NYRaider said: Seems like a lot of people are cooling on Bryce Young. Why?

But to my knowledge, there have only been 3 HoF QBs that were under 6'2" (Farn Tarkenton - 6'0", Joe Montana - 6'1" (listed at 6'2" but wasn't), and Drew Brees - 6'0"). That and Tua being injury prone will likely scare off some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 NW sucks but Mertz's first game post-doofus... 20-29, 299 yards, 5 TD We'll see how these last 6 games go but Bobby Engram making things much easier on him than the archaic system that Paul Chryst ran. RPOs, multiple guys in space, WR safety valves rather than slow *** TEs, etc. Kid has all the talent in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and Tua being injury prone will likely scare off some. It is worth taking under consideration. However, how many sub 6'2 QBs get drafted in the first place? So yeah you can say there haven't been that many great ones in NFL history, but that is because there aren't many that get drafted high. There's been plenty of tall QBs who have failed, but far more of them get drafted. Its all about your game. And Bryce Young is as good as any sub 6'2 QB (as a prospect) in recent memory DeVonta Smith is a good player to bring up. I will admit I was concerned about his size a bit (he's hella small) and you can't find many examples of 170lbs WRs cooking in the NFL, but again that is because not many of them get a chance in the first place. You either got it or you don't. I don't have a firm opinion on Young yet but from what I've seen, I don't think he deserves to get knocked down for his size. I'm not concerned about his ability to take hits yet Edited October 9, 2022 by iknowcool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing with Richardson is that if you’re a coach that thinks you can improve him as a passer, the ceiling is absurd. And significant enough improvement from now to the 2024 draft in that is not unreasonable. But he definitely needs to stay another year. He’s more raw as a passer than Malik Willis was, so that’s probably his draft ceiling as things stand now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to even compare the 2 as it currently stands. Honestly Richardson is probably closer to Taysom Hill. Seems he may be destined for more of a gadget type athlete role at the next level than as a QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Richardson is probably closer to Taysom Hill. Seems he may be destined for more of a gadget type athlete role at the next level than as a QB Richardson attempted 24 passes in the last two games, many QBs attempt that many passes in one half. I would not call Richardson a more raw passer than Malik Willis, if anything he is a little more advanced just does not play in a passing offense really. In terms of being able to throw off platform from different arm angles I would say Richardson is more advanced than Willis was. These QBs should all return to school most likely and all can as far as I know. Jayden Daniels LSU RS JR Dillon Gabriel Oklahoma RS JR JT Daniels West Virginia RS JR Casey Thompson Nebraska RS JR Gerry Bohanon USF RS JR Taulia Tagovailoa Maryland RS JR Will Rogers Miss State JR Tyler Shough might return because I think he has been hurt most of the year but it is his 5th season, Penix might declare and same with Hartman and McCall but might be better for all to return unless they have a great rest of the season, same with Rattler. Leary for sure could return and honestly Travis should as well. Spencer Rattler South Carolina RS JR Devin Leary NC State RS JR Michael Penix Jr Washington RS JR Sam Hartman Wake Forest RS JR Grayson McCall Coastal Carolina RS JR Jordan Travis Florida State RS JR Either way someone will drop in the draft just on numbers and would be a decent quality as a UDFA. One of these guys or all of them really could fall to being a UDFA. If some of the guys listed above declare then even more will fall as a UDFA. Max Duggan TCU Phil Jurkovec Boston College RS Brennan Armstrong Virginia RS Kedon Slovis Pitt Spencer Sanders Ok State RS Aidan O'Connell Purdue Stetson Bennett Georgia RS Malik Cunningham Louisville RS Sean Clifford Penn State RS These guys are most likely to all declare but will see, still 13 QBs not sure that many even get drafted, I think two years ago was 10 and 5 were in the 1st round. Last year was 9. Bryce Young Alabama JR CJ Stroud Ohio State RS SOPH Anthony Richardson Florida RS SOPH Will Levis Kentucky RS DJ Uiagalelei Clemson JR Jaren Hall BYU RS JR Bo Nix Oregon Michael Penix Jr Washington RS JR Hendon Hooker Tennessee RS Spencer Rattler South Carolina RS Sam Hartman Wake Forest RS JR Dorian Thompson-Robinson UCLA RS Grayson McCall Coastal Carolina RS JR So in terms of getting a decent UDFA QB in 2023 chances are pretty high.

Mox Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Seems like people really cooled down on this class. If Wilson, Lance, and Fields were in this draft do they all go above Stroud/Young? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fields is honestly the biggest reason I’m down on Stroud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
