Welcome Easton Stick, QB, NDSU

[powderblueboy]

This pick had to be made. You simply do not pass on a future Hall of Fame quarterback in the fifth round. Passing on Stick in the fifth would have been at least as bad as passing on Tom Brady in the sixth back in 2000.

If Stick's name was Jim Grady i think people here would like the pick more.

Could be a Saints type scenario. They had Brees, Bridgewater and Hill. Maybe Stick is destined for a similar roll to Hill. In fact watch the NFL start trending towards 2 headed QB game plans. Pocket passers with mobile qbs sprinkled in.

Telesco didn't rule out other positions for Stick: he was previously a linebacker/safety.

Versatility is more prevalent in the NFL than ever before. One thing i love about this game is that it is so dynamic. Constantly evolving.

Thanks for that inside info there, Coach. At first, I didn't like the Stick pick. Now, I'm kind of warming up to it...

I think this pick signals their intention to stick with Rivers for the next 3-4 years (no pun intended).

I say again....

Our Taysom Hill clone.
Watch this kid on ST early!

In that case I'd agree but Whiz isnt creative like Payton. We'll see though.

Yeah he's not. Or rather, he's slower on these things compared to Payton and McVay and Pederson. Or gosh, even McDaniels.

Gotta admit. I really like this kid. I see some Baker in this guy. Better runner. I think he is going to make some plays for us in the pre season and we will be forced to keep him off the PS.

I have been reading this stuff for years and years. So they do their due diligence, 3 freaking visits, and get so ballsy to risk a fifth round draft pick and people freak like we left Seau on the board instead.

It's a fifth round pick and tell me the guy does not have some great numbers to come out with? Take a flyer TT, let's see if we struck gold Ponyboy.......

No shit huh?
I think Easton makes the team and is a ST contributor besides giving us excellent scout team looks.
Kid is a baller.

All that and a fifth rounder too? I can see why people hate him..........
