I’m partial to the Pasadena Humane Society out here for anyone who wants to get involved. My corgi “works” there as a socialization buddy when they have litters, and their food bank has saved a lot of needy pets who just want to stay with their people when things get bad out here. Thinking about priorities, I’m going to set a goal of hitting Edge/DT classes next, probably going to shoot for the stretch goal on that but want to think about criteria a bit because body types differ so much there and change competencies drastically. It’s easier for the DTs than the Edges. Past that, I’ll leave it open to the group if WRs, OTs, IOL, or CBs make sense. Feel free to drop votes—I’ll order things based on interest since this is at its most fun when it follows the debate in here.

I have reread the effort post multiple times. Incredible content. I did not expect you to do the like of Zappe and Strong. Kudos again, comrade. I am teetertottering on CJ Stroud again. He seems great again but on the "got that dawg in him", Stroud scored a measly 4. Scouting is hard!

I liked your post Grey Ghost, but it is Brock Purdy erasure and even after watching him play two games I can decide if he's an anti tools guy who's just loving good or if it's all going to come crashing the gently caress down.

Ornery and Hornery posted:what was a snake fact that you found noteworthy? I discovered in North American snake lore I am probably safe from dying by a bite from a Cottonmouth or Copperhead even if I don't seek medical care. Miserable for a long while but living through it. Rattlesnake bites will gently caress you all the way up if you don't deal with them though. This relates to the future draft when Spencer Rattler comes out of course.

Anyways let’s talk about backup quarterbacks taking the starter’s jobs like Brock Pur— KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:It’s hard for tOSU skill guys to have that dawg in em Haskins had significantly more just off of his defense never meaning a safe lead. Fields played through like 10 different injuries. Stroud…just occasionally looks sad and annoyed out there? Like, I’m not a big “vibes” or emotions guys but there’s something deeply weird about a guy who makes the throws he does to the guys he does who just…doesn’t get all that fired up and talks like a Dabo amount about Jesus in every single interview. He might just be the latest in a series of QB prospects who have been out there so long they’ve done the Russell thing and filed their personalities down but I’m very very interested in how he finishes Bowl season. BlindSite posted:I liked your post Grey Ghost, but it is Brock Purdy erasure and even after watching him play two games I can decide if he's an anti tools guy who's just loving good or if it's all going to come crashing the gently caress down. I like Purdy as a backup or substitute for Jimmy, but “anti-tools” isn’t correct more just “anti-arm talent” because he doesn’t have a real scary deep ball or 20 yard rip.. He is benefiting quite a bit right now from the lack of tape meaning he can challenge the sidelines right now without guys teeing off when he hangs a ball, but the ball gets out of his hands quickly enough within 10-15 yards that even having to dial those risks back probably doesn’t completely kill him? Remember, Kyle’s offense just kinda does this with quarterbacks, because you can hide guys who suck under pressure or deep with all his horizontal stress. They’ll bring Lance back when healthy, but there’s a reasonable chance Purdy can give you roughly what Jimmy does as a backup, and the tape can take 8-10 games to catch up with you. Purdy with a league average arm probably gets drafted like Day 2ish TheGreyGhost fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Dec 22, 2022 |

Holy shot can he throw a corner route though BlindSite posted:Thank you sir. As a general rule in watching QBs, if you unconsciously notice the ball is in air longer than you think, it probably was, at least in NFL parameters.

I'll never forget in the 2015 season seeing A.J. McCarron start multiple games live. The balls floated for an absurd amount of time. Edit: I was used to seeing Andy Dalton and it was still shocking.

Eifert Posting posted:I'll never forget in the 2015 season seeing A.J. McCarron start multiple games live. The balls floated for an absurd amount of time. The one I will never forget is Ken Dorsey. If there is a supervillain origin story to me, it’s getting exposed to 3 Ken Dorsey NFL starts and being absolutely baffled how anyone could seriously believe an NFL quarterback could throw that weak of a ball. In honor of tonight’s Zach Wilson start, I went back to the 2021 thread and read my comps and strengths/weaknesses. I remember calling Lawrence and Fields the top 2 but: - Called Lawrence something between Stafford and prospect Peyton (this…doesn’t seem too far off at this point with above average processing and a willingness to rip). Occasionally pushed the ball too much and bent to pressure. Otherwise excellent. Feel very good about this one. - Fields I nailed the ball holding and occasional middle of field misses, along with the occasional overlord. Did not expect him to be running this much but more surprised by the coach willingness than anything. He definitely does throw like Kyler, but he’s running far better than the Dak comparison I expected. - Wilson, well, nailed that he wasn’t throwing guys open even with that release. Nailed him holding the ball too long and failing to rip longer throws. Jimmy G with better feet was probably too generous of a comparison, but he hasn’t grown at all. - Mac, lmao Matt Leinart was dead on. - Gonna withhold judgment on Trey for sample size to this point. Ideal situation Tyrod isn’t out of the question still. - Trask as Henne holds up, but lol when 45 year old brady probably can still outthrow you in practice. - Mond as Locker or Kizer with tools and only a theoretical game feel was dead on. Sometimes I think I’m just a hater with these guys, but it really is super hard to become an NFL quarterback, much less a good one!

Kinda drove it home for me watching highlights of the 2015 game between the Panthers and Seahawks. Prime Newton and Wilson could flat loving drive a ball and it was massively noticeable the difference in that pop and drive.

SUPERBOWL XLVIII (2013 season)
Nothing but a game manager. Trash qb. Kirk Cousins tier imo. Was never good. edit: woah. How many rush yards do you think Marshawn had in that superbowl? 39 yards!!! on 15 attempts! https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201402020den.htm#all_team_stats Ornery and Hornery fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Dec 23, 2022 |
