Mayfield petty comparison

[kevinc855]

Forget that the guy is not even six foot and seems to have leadership issues but let’s examine his play....in the BIg 12!!! You understand defense is not a thing in this league right? If you look at petty last 2 season guy had over 8000 yards over 60tds and 10 ints. Yet he has turned out to be one of the worst jet qbs in history. So I caution mayfield and being seduced by his numbers. You gotta look deeper then that!

Mayfield >>> Petty and this is coming from a Mayfield critic.

I agree Petty has not played well . but he's had what a sum total of 6 NFL real games . I bet you Rams fans said similiar things about Goff last year . I get it, the Jets haven't had a franchise QB since Namath but there's so much over reaction by Jet fans about Qb's its almost funny.

It is impossible for anyone to see the NFL more differently from me than you. You embrace mediocrity. I could pick out you posts without seeing your name. There is not even a point here other than I guess you dont like Mayfield.

Mayfield has leadership issues?  Where have you seen that?  Everything I have read his team mates love him.

There is no comparison between Petty's and Mayfield's style of play

He's 6'1".  And if he's not, the Combine will prove it.

Is it a thing in Georgia?  His team scored 46 against them.

So you looked at an exceptionally shallow analysis and said "Petty = Mayfield".

And we need to look deeper.

Gotcha.

His height check will have a lot of people watching. He has been listed all over the place. People started averaging out the sites and saying he is 6'1

If he measures in at 6'1" he is in good shape.

Mayfield's height and Darnold's hands will be the two big (or too small) measurements coming out of the combine. 

[nycdan]

But can he jump out of a swimming pool?  Because that would erase any doubts.  And don't forget the boar-hunting competition.  Huge correlation to NFL success.

The life ruining long term side effects of “Jetting Up” for too long.

[faba]

I think a little exaggeration calling Petty worst Jet QB's in history- no

 

Mayfield I would not be unhappy if we took him- sometimes you have take a risk

 

 

[Kleckineau]

If Darron Lee is 6-1 so is Mayfield.

[BCJet]

For anyone who even remotely thinks this comparison is legitimate, I really suggest checking out draftbreakdown.com and watch some of Mayfield's cutups and keep Petty's last few performances in your mind when you do.

Petty is one of the most uncoordinated elite athletes I have ever seen.  His arms and legs are routinely not even going in the same direction, which is why he is not only moderately inaccurate but why he routinely misses WIDE OPEN receivers (remember ASJ in week 16???).  Watching him the last 3 weeks i actually thought he was injured, given how bad his footwork and body control was.  They say a QB needs to marry his feet and arms - well petty had the most awkward body control into his delivery I have ever seen.

Mayfield is an excellent athlete.  Watch him when things like high snaps happen - not only does he seamlessly catch the ball, but he also is quickly moving and getting his head upfield.  He moves effortlessly in the pocket and can routinely change his arm angles (very similar to Mahomes - whose throwing motion was also questioned regardless of his accuracy).  He's short yet rarely gets balls knocked down and moves behind the LOS while keeping his eyes constantly downfield.  He isn't fast, yet is an excellent runner, finding lanes etc.

I dont know if Mayfield is gonna make it in the pros.  Maybe he doesn't study enough (I personally dont think you could go through progressions as fast as he does without studying, but who knows).  Maybe his attitude will get him into trouble.  But what I do know is he is NOTHING like Bryce Petty

I bet Mayfield would be a better LB than Lee.

[JoJoTownsell1]

I remember when scouts didn't like Aaron Rodgers because he came from the same system as Harrington and Boller.

[Jetster]

I look at Mayfield as a slightly taller, stronger Doug Flutie with a quicker release. If that's the case, he's gonna be fun to watch if you surround him with some talent and his confidence soars.

Or the bench press reps - good ol Vern Gholston was a beast at that. 

[Gangrene]

You do bring up an interesting topic of who is the worst Jet quarterback of all time. I only remember as far back as Browning Nagle, who was p*ss poor. Bubby Brister, for me, holds a special place in the pantheon of sh*te Jets qbs.

Savage could likely educate me on worse Jets qbs. Christian Hackenberg not taking the field for a regular season game for two years after been drafted in the second round, is an obvious dark horse candidate for worse Jets qb of all time. Although, I expect you have to actually throw a regular season pass to truly qualify for worse Jets QB of all time.

Actually, the one thing he is universally praised for is his leadership.

They should seriously add that. Would help with the ratings problem lol.

For me it was Neil O'Donnell .

He doesnt look close to 6'1" to my eyes.

This is a bad comparison 

[Lith]

I don't like the Mayfield - Petty comparison.  

Coming out of college, Bryce was a one read QB.  If his first read was open, he was accurate, but his accuracy fell if he had to go to 2nd or 3rd read.  Bryce had a strong arm, could make NFL throws and threw a nice deep ball at Baylor (if memory is correct).  He could carve up a defense, as long as his first read got open. 

Mayfield routinely goes through progressions and is accurate on throws to 2nd or 3rd read.  That alone makes him more NFL ready than Bryce.  He can succeed both within the structure of the play and he scrambles to throw rather than to run, but he can run when necessary.   I think he was exposed a bit by the speed of the Georgia LBs, especially in the 2nd half, who were able to limit his ability to create when the play breaks down.  Despite this, I still think he is a much better prospect than Petty.

To me, the better comp for Petty (as others have suggested) is Mason Rudolph, whom I see as another one read, big arm QB.

Just my two cents -- for whatever that is worth.

This post is so good it almost negates the bad thread.

Damn, I remember him an expensive dissappointment  but the all time worst QB in Jets history ? Those two interceptions for the Steelers in the Super Bowl should have been enough warning.
