YOLOsubmarine posted:Definitely be skeptical of an LSU transfer QB having a breakout year after a middling college career up until that point, especially when paired with two top flight receivers. When has that ever worked out? Burrow didn't have 4 years of college experience starting prior. He just never got a chance to start until LSU, and then yeah his second year getting real starting reps he loving exploded. Maye isn't just a big arm though. His statistical profile is so much better than Levis' it's funny. But shrug. We'll see. Like I said, I could be wrong obviously, I just do this poo poo for funsies, but I just don't like him as much as others seem to. Especially because like a number of the things that people praise him for(pocket presence, protecting himself) are things that like both the numbers and my eyes tell me he's not great at.

How much is made of age in the draft? Like how important is it that Maye and McCarthy are 21 compared to Daniels and Penix at 23 or Nix at 24? Like of course the latter put up bigger numbers and look better but shouldn't the former have more room for growth? I don't watch enough college to know much about these guys specifically, but generally does the older guy have to be that much better than the kid? Unless a guy's like 25 or something it doesn't seem to get mentioned much. I follow the NHL draft more and there they seem to have prospect aging curves down pretty good. Like if you're looking at prospects in Canadian Juniors (league for 17-20 year olds) then everyone knows that someone who's holding down playing time and giving a respectable performance is a prospect worth looking at while his 20 year old teammate putting up MVP numbers can probably be ignored since if he was any good he'd have turned pro already. Obviously there's late bloomers and guys who peak early, but there aren't many stars that don't get identified and snapped up at the earliest opportunity.

Unless a guy's like 25 or something it doesn't seem to get mentioned much. I don't think age matters much, other than the discussion of sitting a prospect and waiting. Penix, Hartman, and Nix are going to come in with a ton of reps and know how to work schemes very easily, similar to what Brock Purdy did. My Packers drafted an old(ish) Sean Clifford, and he immediately won the QB2 job because he had experience.

Daniels had to play a lot because they had a dog poo poo defense and they needed to score drat near 50 points to be ahead comfortably. They had like 2 blowouts.

Unless a guy's like 25 or something it doesn't seem to get mentioned much. Age tends to matter far far more to NFL teams than they do to draft prognosticators. Less so at QB, because that position is just so loving unique and hard to scout. But older dudes who do almost always tend to fall in the draft lower than most Draft prognosticators think a player should fall. How much it actually matters, I dunno, that'd require a poo poo load of statistical work

We'll have to see how the actual draft plays out, but I'm pretty sure if McCarthy was a 24 year old 5th year senior and played the exact same he would not be getting first round hype It's also another big difference between Lamar and Daniels, Lamar was extremely young when he was drafted

I don't watch enough college to know much about these guys specifically, but generally does the older guy have to be that much better than the kid? Unless a guy's like 25 or something it doesn't seem to get mentioned much. A lot. Some positions it matters more than others, but in general it's a significant weighting. Old WR's, LBs, and DB's because they're just savvier. Better understanding of routes and more refined nuances, better diagnosis and understanding of the position. Linemen on both sides that extra physical development matters a lot. TEs all of the above. In practice what this means is that they're both closer to the peak of what you can envision them being and that in the NFL those extra advantages they had in college are going to be minimized. Right now we're still in COVID time, so it's graded on a curve and a lot of times you'll be watching film and be like this guy looks refined and look him and up see that he's 37. I think a good case study this year is Braden Fiske. Elite athlete and motor for days, but what comes across again and again on tape is he just doesn't have the power to be a reliably disruptive presence in either the run or pass game. He will absolutely disrupt plays, but it's athleticism, eye discipline, and tenacity. He's also 24. You like the package and maybe you can get some more muscle on him, but how much are you going to add to a 24 year old? In Fiske's case that's more of an open question because he only had the one year at top tier program, but it's still a concern. This also matters more the earlier in the draft you are. Rounds one and two it a bigger weight than it is in round 6, because at that point you'll take as many boxes as you check, but it's also a result of older guys getting pushed down the board. Also when when we're talking NFL draft old we're typically talking 23-24 year olds.

If I want someone that gets plugged in and played along OL or DL rookie year usually I'd want older prospects simply because they're bigger already. If someone is 24/25 and still can't play football then that's a big red flag to me, IE Joe Milton or Bo Nix. Most players don't last past their rookie deal either through injury or being outclassed. Because of that I don't really care about age unless it's egregiously old.

What's the deal with Joe Milton? A friend of mine was talking about how he'd be a day 2 QB at worst if he had better receivers instead of solidly in day 3, so I watched some highlights and man that arm pops. Saw a couple casual flicks somehow go 50 yards in the air and a back foot throw that went like 35-40.

Not quite the same, but Raheem Mostert bounced around the league for years before finally catching on with the Niners at age like 27, which is how he was able to rush for like 1100 yards and 25 TDs at age 31 when most RBs are falling apart.
