I think it's very simplistic and that's not all. We can't blame everything on the team and not the person (QB). First of all, the QB needs to make efforts to learn and adapt NFL systems, learn to make reads, progressions, protection calls, adjustments. Even if he does, he should've had the tools and traits, and shouldn't have too many bad habits or tendencies that he could not execute the plays more often than not without reverting back to the bad traits under pressure or otherwise. There are floors and ceilings to which the QBs can be coached up and after that, the traits that QBs possess and the progress they make in development should take them to the higher level, if they really put efforts into making so. And, the floor and ceiling that various experts compare before the draft may not actually be the true potential, and that could be seen only on the field and over the years through progression or regression. Then, there are scheme fits, supporting staff and cast, injuries, football intelligence and probably many other factors that play into these QBs reaching their actual ceiling. We, fans, focus on the positive traits and the potential and talk up so many QB prospects in the draft time, but we don't do the same projection on how these QBs' bad tendencies, limitations and the lack of tools and traits eventually could limit them from reaching their ceiling. This is why not all top 4 QB prospects in this draft are going to become franchise QBs as history suggests it very rarely happens that more than 2 QBs in a draft becomes a franchise QB for their teams over the long term or even for a full rookie contract. -
the major benefit of Pinter is he was widely praised coming out of the draft a an athletic “move” lineman who could be used in a zone scheme. historically, the schemes that sparano has used recently employ a good amount of movement by his Center and try to get them to pull and operate in space. that plays to pinter’s strengths and gets away from his weaknesses where he is overwhelmed strength-wise and needs to play angles I think he can be an average starting center in a zone scheme if we go that route. -
Yea I agree with you. Waiting is risky and moving back would definitely be a Ballard move. Grab more picks and still get your QB. I would not be opposed to this. That being said Will Anderson possibly being there at 4 could change my mind. We clearly are “adjusting” the roster since rebuilding seems to be a strong word. So grabbing a stud ER would be a good move this year. But that means probably rolling with Minshew. I’m conflicted. -
You may also want to check out this video - every throw against Georgia, which probably had the best D in college football last year (although my Buckeyes put up 41 on them, lol!) Some really good throws, a few bad ones. I have to admit, I'm pretty much sold on this kid. I expect him to be wearing the horseshoe come May. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lRkYM5T7u4 -

U don't draft Carter with Buckner and Stewart on the roster. Plus, Carter comes with tons of baggage. Even before the speeding episode there was apparently a lot of other red flags. My God, he got gassed at his pro day and had to lay down. He is a bust waiting to happen. What happens when u give someone with character flaws millions of dollars? If u think he was out of control now, just wait till he wins the lottery.
