It's possible that 4 QB's go in the first round next year Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert, and Jalen Hurts.

I still don’t think he can pass effectively in the NFL. His release is long af, his arm strength is average, he is not very accurate, and he can’t go through progressions or read defenses.

His strengths are his leadership, intangibles, and mobility.

I don’t think it’s enough to succeed in the nfl.

Will Tua go in the first?
Alabama just showed anyone in that offense can drop 40 on a top D... and of course the injury.

Hurts with 28 yard rushing td. He’d be a helluva wildcat qb.

Injury prone, small, stacked supporting cast.

Don’t see it.

Yeah.....they said the same things about Watson and Lamar Jackson. :rolleyes:

His career #'s disagree with your "lack of accuracy" claim. The way I tell if a Qb can read "D" is by his Tds to INT ratio.
Lots INTS. means a Qb is misreading "D".

JalenHurts

And no one can call him a so-called "running Qb". His seasonal rushing is low.

You should look at system in addition to td/int ratio.

With your unsound logic, Texas Tech should be a nfl qb factory.

Watson could pass in college. Him and hurts aren’t even close to similar. Lamar Jackson has an elite skill in speed and elusiveness. Hurts is not elite in any skill that separates him.

Give Trubisky a line and some receivers that can catch the ball and an NFL right end and I’ll ride with him. Fuck drafting another first round QB (and we will have to move up) and let’s give ours a chance. People are so quick to write off players. Let’s give our QB a chance.

We rode with cutty for what felt like a century. It’s ok to cut bait, I promise.

Joe Burrow is probably the top QB but he'll be drafted first overall probably by the Phins.

Not a Hurts fan at QB at all. Horrible throwing motion. Someone will draft him too early and think they can make him the next Lamar Jackson, I would pass.

Bottom line is Jalen Hurts isn’t Lamar Jqckson. I’m sorry , we’ve seen this before. RG3, etc. LJ is a once in a generation talent. Hurts isn’t that guy.
