This is better than that, but...well it's not like 5'10" is bragging rights according to NFL GMs. Like, he's less of a midget than we feared isn't going to convince anyone who cared about his height.

His weight being over 200 seems like the bigger deal.

The 200 pounds would be a big deal if he were participating in drills at that weight. As such it could just be he bulked up for show.

Kyler is a small bodied qb who also happens to be the greatest Texas high school QB ever and produce one of the best college football seasons ever. His size is a major issue but the talent is off the charts

On the other hand, it's a very different NFL these days in terms of quarterback hits and injuries. The kid gloves that defenders have to put on would benefit Kyler Murray, and his speed and low running stance should help him avoid the really big hits.

I'm also not sure I see how being larger would necessarily protect you from injury either. The longer your limbs the more leverage they create, to me a tall guy would be more likely to tear an ACL while planting a foot or being contacted low by pass rushers. A guy lower to the ground and more compact is a bit more protected in that way, although obviously if your limbs are too thin then there's less to keep them from bending in a way they shouldn't. Another worry would be how easy it would be to slam him into the ground, causing concussions. Still I don't believe he's every been seriously injured, so that's promising, and I don't see why he'd be any more likely than another running QB to tear an ACL for example

But does he have the range to jump the length of 2 car garages?

Have his genetics been evaluated yet? What's his wingspan? What's the physics projection of the maximum torque his arms can generate in a throw with the additional rotation of his body?

This poo poo needs to go next level for scientific evaluation.

Just look at all the pass rushing and dline talent in this draft then compare it to the OL talent. It's been this way for a minute now and soon all QBs are gonna die or the NFL is going to have to protect them even more.

I'm convinced the resources being poured into the AAF in the short term are to teach up usable offensive linemen.

You're probably not wrong at all and it's definitely one of the biggest reasons the AAF needs to succeed.

quote:

Murray is the best of the bunch by a mile. Better than former Ohio State quarterback Dwayne Haskins, who McCloughan describes as "Byron Leftwich to a 'T'." Better than Missouri's Drew Lock, West Virginia's Will Grier and Duke's Daniel Jones, too. However, stacked up against last year's QB class, Murray would rank fifth, McCloughan says, behind Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Josh Allen and Josh Rosen, but before Lamar Jackson.
Someone (Giants) please move up to #3 for the right to draft the next Byron Leftwich.
