scar988 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 This is the wrong forum for it. But I don't see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 There’s a QB thread, a thread on Nix vs Penix vs McCarthy, and probably a Michigan thread in the college subforum, so seems a little unnecessary. If by NFL caliber you mean draftable, then sure. I would draft him. I just wouldn’t do it until like eight other QBs are already gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Raiders need him bad. He can beat out Jimmy G and AOC just with his running ability. He should sit a year behind a vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomCampBody Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 He's years away from being ready, if he comes out this year i don't think it ends well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerbertGOAT Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 He's AJ McCarron/Greg McElroy/Gino Torretta/Ken Dorsey with a plus arm and decent mobility. Draftable? Sure. Franchise QB? If by franchise QB, you mean that he will ensure you pick high enough to actually draft one, yeah. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikes635 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 IMO the answer is yes. He has some physical tools that could make him an interesting NFL prospect but Michigan relies on running game so much I don't believe we've been able to see if he can go through progression fast enough. At this time if he landed in an offense that schemes players open he could have lots of early success but I wouldn't trust him if he had to read a defense and go through option 1, 2, and so on. That doesn't mean he can't do it but more so he hasn't been asked to do it. If he could land somewhere and learn for couple years I think it would be best, Otherwise offenses like Miami, San Fran, LAR, and maybe MIN would be good fits for him.

I basically think he's Sam Darnold 2.0, just has a much better team/system around him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's anywhere close to Darnold as a prospect or that he'd be better as a player. From what I've seen he's a mid-late round pick.

So that wasn't a compliment to either of them. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFan13 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I have said it from the start JJ and Bo have no business being in the 1st 2 rounds of this draft. I don't think either of them were as good QB prospects tools wise as Ridder was coming out. I think both of them have the same issue Ridder has as well in they are a 1 read and run type of QB who struggles with more complex systems that requires alot of motions and multiple reads and tougher competition.

MSURacerDT55 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) He is, some of the throws he makes are amazing. He definitely needs to be in the right system and needs more time to mature but I think he definitely has the tools to say the least. He has the tools to be a starter in the league Edited January 9 by MSURacerDT55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
