Mock Database has a lot of people thinking mid Rd1 (with an overall projection end of 1st) which I think is far fetched unless he blows everyone out of the water at the Combine. Imho, I'm thinking late 2nd / Rd3 is where he'll go, which my be too rich for the Pats. Dude is technically skinnier than Jayden Daniels.
He does have a surprising amount of speed... may be in the 4.5's or even 4.4's...
Random thought - I think this is ~53 air yards on a rope:
If your best case scenario is that he is a #2 QB, then why the heck would you draft him so early? 6th round, maybe.If in the unlikely event he falls to the 3rd round, I'd draft him and have him sit for his rookie season (perhaps longer if we find a stud at QB in the 1st or 2nd round. Best case scenario, with the right coaching and talent on offense, he could be a great #2 QB.
I was interested him, but after the playoffs, very much less so.i think I have quickly reached the decision that he's a project quarterback from what you all have said... thats a project we don't need at this point
i don't watch college football...I was interested him, but after the playoffs, very much less so.
I think it’s Daniels. Everything I read on Williams is diva. Maye… I wish he played for a big time program.i don't watch college football...
so when i heard National Champ... Draft... wondered if a third option emerged behind Williams & Maye
I just don't think he'll last until even the 5th round. Although that would depend on the combine, pro-days, etc. It'll also depend on how the other 31 teams rate him. Day 3 wouldn't be a bad player to draft though.If your best case scenario is that he is a #2 QB, then why the heck would you draft him so early? 6th round, maybe.
I don't think he is even remotely NFL caliber and I don't want him coming here, except maybe as a day 3 flyer.
Such a hard pass...has shown me very little as a passer R2 talent that will likely be elevated by his accomplishmentsSmells like a Day 2 pick as a project. Not for me.
Yup, won't criticize his decision, but there is no way that he is better than Williams, Maye, Daniels, Penix, or NixHorrible decision. I know he is coming off a natty but he needs another year - at least - on the farm. Michigan was a running team. One of their marquee games of the regular season was defined by them running the ball 30 times in a row (he threw for 60 yards).
In his final 6 games of the season, he averaged 143 yards. Not good.
Just a note: juniors have a few weeks to rescind their decision to declare, as long as they haven't hired an agent.Such a hard pass...has shown me very little as a passer R2 talent that will likely be elevated by his accomplishments

He's ultimately a project...Good to sit behind a vet for a year or two or three
