There is a trend going on in the NFL and it's real and Fields fit that trend. The QB's that have been taken lately with a skill set that you just straight up cant teach (Mahomes, Watson, Wilson, Murrary, Jackson, Allen) over the traditional polished pocket passer. That is Fields. He brings a skill set to the table Lawrence could only dream of. If you havent been paying attention, that is what you want in a prospect these days. I couldn't agree more with this post. I don't know a lot about Fields or Lawrence - but I am on the record of going with whichever QB is more of threat with their legs. We want a super athlete at the QB position. Today's NFL is built for guys like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like you’d be putting a primadonna at QB for a Jets team that needs a rock-ribbed leader. How is it Fields fault that Kirby Smart has no idea how to find/develop a QB? He was 10000x better than Fromm. They'd probably have a Naty if they kept him. Not even comparable how much better he is/was and why knock the kid for clearly making a great decision? Burrow jumped programs, Russell Wilson jumped programs, Minshew jumped programs, Mayfield jumped programs, Kyler Murray jumped programs. and you're knocking him for wanting to play Football? Maybe one of your worst takes ever. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a legitimate QB prospect that's also a sick athlete. I guess maybe a running QB isn't the word I'm looking for but a great athlete as a QB.

Jimmy 2 Times Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 A quarterback with the ability to escape and create is the best case scenario. I prefer the ones always looking to throw when the pocket breaks down over the one read and bail types. I'm talking about the Rodgers, Wilson, Rapistburger (in his prime), and obviously Pat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maury77 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I'll do a comparison video between Lawrence, Fields and Trey Lance over in the draft forum this week so you guys can form your own opinion.

It’s actually not that far fetched, since jones looks like a turnover machine. I’m hoping we get 1st pick and Gmen end up with the 4th missing out on Fields making their new GM stuck with Daniel Jones, the turnover machine. Gmen fans were crapping on Darnold calling Jones special this offseason. That’s evaporated quickly. He’s good for two turnovers a game. Without fail.

Adoni Beast Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 25 minutes ago, Jimmy 2 Times said: How ******* sad is it that we're even having this debate? This is why the coaching search after Bowles was so crucial. It’s absolute malpractice what Chris Johnson did by hiring Adam Gase. Everyone knew he’d be a disaster. Sadly, I thought Sam was good enough to overcome/maintain until Gase’s inevitable firing in 2 years (as predicted by most at the time of hiring). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 We most likely will be picking 1st or 2nd. So, this thread should be bumping all season/off season. I’m good with either, but if we’re picking 1st, Lawrence should be the pick . It really appears Joe D went into this season ready to let Gase hang, and hoped to keep Sam upright enough to keep maintain some trade value and ship him away. Just a real shame what we did to Sam. He still has a lot of talent, and with the right coach/team can still be a star. Joe D punted on the season and obviously wants his own coach/QB.

Guess the number of scrubs that were amazing in Mike Leach's offense? Hint, there's dozens. Don't forget who the HC is at Stanford - David Shaw, his philosophy is similar to Bowles win with defense and ball control. Costello may be just a product of the system but you could argue similarly with Mahomes , Murray and others, his play deserves more looks as the college season progresses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes without saying. Doesn't really mean anything though.

Savage69 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Until a QB does it in the Pro's any college stats are meaningless..

Lawrence isn't exactly slow though - He's a phenomenal athlete himself. I'd say he's around a 4.7 guy which is crazy for a 6ft 6 QB. Only Jackson and Murray from that list are significantly faster. He has more than enough speed to move around in the pocket in the way Mahomes and Rodgers do. Wilson doesn't run as often any more and he's better for it. The elusiveness is more important than being able to take off for big gains. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
