2020 Draft Prospect Discussion

[wu-dai clan]

Curious to see whos the top QB out of our scout list. I know they were fixated on Bosa coming out that one year, wonder who is the golden QB they are high on.

My sources say it's Tua. :thumbsup:

Tua may be there at 11

Tua may be there at 11

Tua may get hurt attending the combine.

Okay, I am going to put this out there right now. Kicker. We always are scrap heaping, looking for a gem and we have not had consistency for years. Injuries, misses and chokers galore for us. I am putting Rodrigo Blankenship down as my 3rd round choice RIGHT NOW. Yeah, I know that you should never draft a kicker up high, blah, blah, blah. But figure this.......with all of the possessions in a game, your team scores 3 TD's and 3 FG's. 30 points. Not a far fetched or a greedy total IMHO. Well your kicker is directly responsible for 12 of your 30 points or 40% of your final score. That's on par with that of a great WR or running back play for a game, right?

I have watched this kid kick for 4 years and he is ALL of that. And for the love of OUR 3rd round choices, I'll take a chance on a true 15 year game changer over a Mager or some D3 tackle.

Respect the SPECS!!!

So am I getting the right vibe from you....that Tua is your guy? Really? Boy, I'm not feeling that at all...I have only watched some smatterings of Alabama football this year, so maybe I haven't seen a fair sampling, but I am not impressed, never mind the injuries. Very possible this guy's success is more about the team around him, than his actual talent.

Even if he comes out next spring, and blows people away with NFL throws, interviews, etc...doesn't it scare the shit out of you, the injuries? Maybe I'm just snake bit, with all thats happened this year, but geesh...

[blueman]

blue man is just waiting to fire up the bench Tyrod Taylor thread.opcorn:

It's only a matter of time......no later than week 3 of next year.

Might as well fire it up now.

Call me crazy, but yeah I want solid QB performance any way I can get it.

Have you seen how this much team protects Badgley? They were willing to have him not be on IR for several weeks because they believe in him.

[Critty]

The junior QBs
Tua
Eason
Fromm
Love
Newman.

The senior QBs
Burrow
Herbert
Hurts

I am saying no to all the junior QBs who declare. Some may pan out. Tua is clearly the most talented. But availability is the best ability and he seems like he could be on IR half his career. That hip injury is an enormous red flag. No thank you.

The senior QBs. Herbert...meh. He seems like he will get his chance to be a starting franchise QB in NFL but I'm not sure of he has what it take to be great.
Hurts, No thank you. Unless its rd 5 to be Joe Burrow back up. I think Hurts can win games in the NFL. Just dont want him as the franchise QB for 15 seasons.

If im drafting to find 15 years of franchise QB play.
Joe Burrow is the man the Chargers must draft.
Trade up to #1. Pay the price.

He is the most accurate passer of all the QBs in the draft. Better under pressure and more accurate 10yds down field than the rest of these QBs. Good mobility to buy time or get a few yards and he throws accurately on the move. He has great pocket awareness and keeps eyes downfield. He understands coverage and where the ball should go.

Bengals absolutely have to draft him.
But I think they would be willing to trade out for the right price. If I'm the Bengals GM, I say no to any offer. QB driven league. They need a QB.
But maybe they will think they are so smart, they trade down and get Tua or Herbert and be fine with them at QB. I'm hoping they think that and are willing to trade out.

Just feel that Burrow has the it factor and the NFL will not be too big for him. When he is playing in the title game this year. He may think ....when I was 6, I was at Rose Bowl watching family. Now it's me. Ive been waiting for this day. I was born to do this.
Then he will throw for 400yds and 4 TDs and get MVP.

I'm all they way out on that limb.
Its Burrow or bust for me.

You can have the field.
Any/All QB drafted in 2020 draft.
Their careers in NFL vs Burrow.
I'll take Burrow. You get the field to beat him.

The prognosis is very positive post surgery.
We will know with great certitude about AVN well before the draft.
Of course, bears do occasionally maul, don't they ?
Top ten GMs will not want to assume the perceived risk.
They will draft OTs, WRs and defenders.
You know what TT will do, Critty.
And who's to say Burrow is not a one year wonder, like Trubisky ?

Turbisky went 8-5 his junior year and declared.
He may have been name Mr Ohio football like Burrow.
But he wasn't an all state 1st team point guard like Burrow was. He didn't beat teams like Alabama.
Mitch lost the Sun bowl game to Stanford throwing 2 interceptions and losing a fumble and completing 59%. He scored a late TD pass to make it look close.


Burrow is 78%
Trubisky was 68% with an easier schedule his final season.

There is no comparison.

Until someone trades up for Joe.
