And quite a few of the top universities are having issues producing starting NFL QBs. People loved to rag on Texas Tech for years and years, but how many Tech guys before Mahomes got drafted in a 30 year span? Now compare that to the number of drafted Ohio State and Alabama guys in that same span. And finally, tally up the successful QBs from every school. Oh. Looks like Tech comes out on top. They have 1, and tOSU and Alabama have a big fat ****ing squadoosh. Thanks for playing, national championship winners. |

"Trevor Lawrence is a winner" was the cry. No crap. He played at Clemson in the weak ACC. 95% of the teams he played in college were outgunned. Then those QBs are drafted by desperate franchises and desperate fan bases who think the QB is going to do it all. But they struggle because they usually don't have the best coaches, weapons, or defensive support. So they lose confidence as they are blamed for everything. "But he was a winner in college!" Rinse and repeat. Stroud will be the new Fields. Young will be the next Tua.

Are you sure about that? We'll find out here in a few weeks that he is washed.

However, Vick did come back and play pretty damn well after a similar amount of time away.

Nope. Not even a little bit. And I hope he crashes and burns in a similar fashion to DangeRuss. But I think it’s fair to say for the purposes of the argument re: Lawrence that Clemson isn’t 100% of the problem.

Lost in the hype over the National Championship Game was that Lawrence never really progressed much in 2019 and 2020.

His rookie year was wasted under that moron Meyer. This is his real rookie year.

He isn't a pure bust like Trey Lance is though. That was a ****ing horrible pick by the 49ers.

Trevor has the physical tools to be a good starting NFL QB. Big, fast enough, big arm, pretty accurate. It's how fast he processes that's the problem.
Trevor is Jared Goff 2.0. A little bigger, faster, with a little better arm. He might someday figure out how to process faster, or he may be relegated to a Stefanski-type offense, where the QB doesn't have to make too many decisions. The other thing is that he's basically a rookie again this season, right? New HC, OC, etc.?

It kinda makes me wonder who Veach is going to get to replace Henne long term. Draft picks are very valuable so will he draft a Kevin Kolb or trade for a Trevor Lawrence/Trey Lance or simply sign someone with potential upside in FA.

You think the Jaguars are going to trade Lawrence for backup-QB level compensation? Or that we're going to trade away picks for a backup QB?
