true, but you also have to acknowledge that a lot of the concerns with the big name quarterbacks seem to be legit concerns for them as NFL quarterbacks, as well.

Those type of guys almost always get hurt.
But I've seen enough of his games this year where I see him playing smart and sliding most of the time. This is huge and why I think he's different.

You have a valid point there, as I have mentioned it a few times as well. The kid is very smart and seems to know how to protect himself...but the NFL is quite different than college. Players are bigger and faster across the board and if he is gonna be used to pick up yardage with his legs a couple times a game, he is gonna get hit and that is a concern as to his long term future.
Ill say it again, he is built similarly to Randall and plays similarly to him, as well. Randall missed almost half the games as a pro.
Would I be excited if we drafted him?
ABSOLUTELY
Would I be surprised if some of the concerns I have with him show their face during his career in the NFL?
Not at all.
