Jeremiah must think that Allen has "Cam Newton" skills or whatever the current narrative is. Watson won a freaking National Championship, and was a main reason Clemson won. But if based on initial draft grade, it shows how those can be skewed. 49 minutes ago, DCOrange said: Combining this list with the one that he wrote dating back to 2011, we can piece his top 10 from 2011-2018 together (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000647484/article/top-10-quarterback-draft-prospects-since-2011): Andrew Luck Cam Newton Robert Griffin III Jameis Winston Teddy Bridgewater Marcus Mariota Sam Darnold Carson Wentz Josh Rosen Jared Goff interesting...

He's probably the one national media draft guy that I'd like to spend a day watching film with. Maybe with Charles Davis in the background providing narration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not the biggest fan of either but Lynch is not good. This list was based on his grade of the QB's at the time of each draft. So he gave Lynch a higher grade than Mahomes. Where is the issue? I can see a case made where both were close in grade at the time of the draft. Edited March 19, 2018 by LabattBlue 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I'll admit, last year I had no idea Watson was going to be so good, I liked Mahomes the most and I'm embarrassed to admit it but I really liked Mitchell Trubisky as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a genuine post! I was all end on Watson last year... it's something about going to back to back National Title games facing the only team in college that resembles an NFL team.

We have a lot of draft experts that have high level business meetings so I respect their opinions Prospects is the operative word. No one knows how they are going to perform in the NFL.

DCOrange Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 2 hours ago, MJS said: Wow, interesting to see Watson below Allen. This shouldn't be very surprising. Watson was generally pegged around the 15-30 range on big boards last year; Allen is generally in the top 5-10 on big boards this year. Media scouts didn't like last year's QB class very much.

The biggest things these draft type guys use to measure QB's is progression, year over year. They want to see them correct mistakes, see a defense and make the correct throw that one expects from a pre snap read. Accuracy, speed, are all tangible assets, but QB scouts look to answer one big huge question after the familiar measurable check off; can this kid learn, has he proven that he can. This, is, IMO, the biggest thing teams and scouts look for in college QB prospects. When all else is equal, it's the intangibles; things like what do they do on their free time, any history of this and that.. etc.. Guys, that haven't done well, Lynch, as an example, may check all the boxes, even the learning part, but simply got drafted by the wrong team into the wrong system. It's not a science, but it is science-light. Tim- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
