I dnt even wanna think about it lol
Maybe the best defence but notable that they didn’t have any real threats at EDGE in that game - a lot of the pressure was coming from LB’s blitzing
Not saying it wasn’t a sign of a step up, especially given the armchair he spent much of the season in in the pocket
But some context that might be important when evaluating him under pressure
I mean tbf that’s not why I’m here
I’m here because I like to evaluate as many prospects as possible before draft night lol

exactly. He's like young Jimmy G

I think it's actually much better than the last few QB classes. 2021 and 2020 each had a stud QB (Lawrence and Burrow) but a massive drop off after that. This class doesn't have anyone like that (Stroud is the only one with that kind of potential), but I could see three or four of these guys being good starters in the right situation.

Just not sure.
Stroud seems to be boom or bust to me. Like I believe in him and think he's got the best chance to be the guy from this class. But he's gotta show that he can really sling it under NFL pressure and he needs to use his athleticism a lot better.
Young I personally don't believe in at all at the NFL level. I think there are too many physical limitations.
Levis and Richardson aren't even 1st RD picks imo. I think they'll go RD1 but I wouldn't take em. They need years of development to be ready to go out there imo.
I certainly want Lamar Jackson I'll tell you that. If we trade him and draft a QB I hope it is Stroud and by a TON

How about Fields?

Fields still hasn't shown he can win with his arm. I generally like him, and he is absolutely held back by his team, but I'm not sure how much long term success he's gonna have. Could stick around for awhile as a gadget guy on offense like the Saints' Tayson Hill, but there's a good chance his days as a starting QB might be numbered.

I think if he make improvements this year, he'll stay. Otherwise, he'll go.

He won't get picked over Stroud. Though after the combine he'll go in the top ten.

Is it just me or is this smokescreen so big it's causing my eyes to itch?
RaineV1
Ravens Ring of Honor
Yeah, there's just no way it's real. Opposing college teams would have absolutely used this against him. Probably someone giving out BS rumors as a smokescreen or just to see if people will believe it.

He his bigger than most of the ball linebackers. I just imagine some slot corner blitzing and bouncing off of him. Looking it up and he's basically the same size as Cam (officially Cam is 6'5" 245).
I really think in the long run Richardson will be the best of this group. He will need time and patience with a good QB coach. The unteachable stuff is there, and he has the attitude of someone willing to carry a team on his back. Just clean up the footwork and arm mechanics.
