Maury Ballstein Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 What are the numbers? Serious question. What's the denominator? Bunch of shorties have done OK in the NFL: Wilson, Brees, Vick, even Flutie. I think I'm recalling a stat I heard about qb's 6'1 or under being drafted early. Plenty have had some success. http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/2012/05/21/wilson-and-the-6-feet-and-under-club/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 After watching his "highlights" they don't exemplify an NFL arm to me... Spotty Ball placement, majority of deep balls underthrown (NFL corner INTs) and looks like a shotgun/system guy with many of the big plays to "high school open" guys... I'm pegging his ceiling right around a Gabbert. Someone is going to blow a pricey pick on him and wish they didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this biased by your Tyrod love or are you being completely honest in your evaluation? The first few seconds of that video show a back shoulder toss and some solid plays over the middle. I agree his deep balls do have some Fitz wobble at times. 150 mark and 213 mark is cash money homie. Money Mitch all day Check out what Bucky Brooks said about Tru.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The guy isn't even tall enough to ride half the roller coasters at Six Flags! What are we even talking about him still?? #littlemitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExWNYer Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Isn't this the current Qb's height who's too short? http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/02/23/college-coach-says-mitch-trubisky-will-measure-up-to-nfl-scrutiny/ But he "plays taller"... You don't understand. There's an unwritten code about this kind of thing. I could be ostracized. I remember when I was a kid, some guy tried to heighten. He lost his job, lost his friends, Everything. Maybe he just needs some Timberlands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffismagic Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I like Mitch. He doesn't play scared. I don't see how he gets past Kyle Shanahan though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I like Mitch. He doesn't play scared. I don't see how he gets past Kyle Shanahan though... Only if the 49ers trade for one before hand. Jimmy G or Romo etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All sorts of lines came to mind... Wins aren't a QB stat. Too small of a sample size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Only if the 49ers trade for one before hand. Jimmy G or Romo etc. Lots of rumblings about Cousins looking for a reunion. Probably much ado about nothing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not TT love, I just think he needs to be the floor at that position and I don't want a replacement that isn't a GUARENTEED upgrade. I've been watching incompetent bills QB play for so many years, I'm not up for scrapping decent without something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 If I loved the guy, this wouldn't bother me in the slightest. That said, I'm not in love with this guy so it's another knock. Hard not to ignore the limited games. In a perfect world, he goes back to school, proves he's not a fluke and becomes the number 1 pick. But I get why he came out.

If we must go blue chip wideout at 10 and Tru falls I'd love to stash him away. I think he's gonna fight until he's elite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty have had some success. http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/2012/05/21/wilson-and-the-6-feet-and-under-club/ I thought so.. Short QBs seem to statistically do better than all tall QBs in the league.. Anyway, all this fuss over a guy with a single season starting.....at NC?
