Watch his tape, he is constantly under throwing his targets, and has no zip on his passes. Scouts say his max effective range is only 25-30 yards. He will be an interception machine. Malik Willis pidgeonholes is in the “dual threat” running category. Last time we tried that, it worked, but for a limited time. Run First dual threat qbs tend to fade away because they can’t transition to a passing QB effectively.
What would I like to happen? Trade back. Get a mid 1, (6th place is worth 1600pts) and a second, or get several picks for day 2. That’s where the bulk of this draft will be. Only QB I see worth taking is Matt Corral. He’s accurate and can throw the ball deep. And he’s a reach for the first round.
Most Excellent my friend.!! You and I are on the same page with respect to the QBs. There is NO QB in this years draft worth a high 1st round pick. But I'm not certain about Corral either, in any spot. I just don't know...... I think if we get TOO wrapped up in the "MUST take a QB" hype, we lose focus on the big picture which should be "building a roster"....IMHO.
Anyway, we have gained some ground on the O-line (a Guard and a Center..), beefed up the middle of our Defense (a Tackle, 2 LBs, and a Safety..), settled our kicking positions (Punter and Kicker..), and added some BEEF to our RB room. It's really hard to complain about this FA period. I think we are a markedly better, deeper team than last year. AND there is still time yet, and decisions to be made.....
