If that is a problem with the clicking, it hasn't shown up yet. Again, he's playing nobodies, from some of the cleanest pockets I've ever seen. You can get away with it when those are the conditions but as we know, it wont be that way in the NFL. Possibly part of the reason he was undraftable prior to this season when he had to face Power 5 competition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, you were just trying to be a smart ass and show me up but I know that's not like you so I gave you a more detailed explanation since again, you asked me a question. Typically when people ask questions they're looking to have a conversation and not just a nut tap and move on. Send him a PM if you dont want someone to add to youre post about a QBs mechanics and find the reference to the worlds best QB bothersome. Silly me, I thought the whole purpose of a message board was to engage in conversation.

Darnold, Murray, Palmer, Vick, Jeff George So, that’s two Super Bowls from one QB. Do you think it’s possible you can be wrong when it comes to once in a lifetime talent? im not saying The ZW is a once in a lifetime talent. I am, although, saying he has an elite skill-set perfectly suited to today’s NFL. He has all of the natural abilities you want in a QB. Can he, will he put it all together? I have no idea. Of course he can bust - but he can also become a top 5 guy. Unless you’re being entirely biased it’s impossible to watch his tape and not see the skill level. I don’t know this kid. Have no relationship. No connection. It’s just the jets have the #2 pick in the draft. Need a QB and I see, IMO, someone that is as, more or less, as good a prospect as you can hope for. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not knocking Wilson... I am saying right now... today versus 6 months ago... He is overhyped, and he is. This does not indicate future success or failure. He is just on a hype level that is in the realm of what happened to Mayfield right before his draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 3:05 Wilson says: "I do like it better then the college ball". Then goes on to explain how he hated the college ball when he came out of HS after using the "fat ball" He's just talking about it being different. All college QB's have to get used to that, and work out with an NFL ball leading up to their Pro Days.

What’s your plan for 2022? If it includes keeping Darnold, Wilson is cheaper by a large margin. The Jets don't have multi year plans. Planning? They are a two win team because of gross Incompetence, across the board This team thought that Sam was a great idea and so was Sanchez Their plan for 22? Accept the TV deal checks when they arrive. Fill out the roster with scrubs? Just a wild stab. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunch of pots where I've pointed out what I dont like about his mechanics and some of his play tendencies In fact, thats what we were talking about and then someone then said, well it didnt hurt him in college.

In fact, of all the concerns I have with Wilson, his level of competition is IMO the least worrisome, however, it is part of the analysis because it is fact that he has not been good when he had to play up.

What's interesting is that the average overall defensive ranking of the teams that Wilson played was actually higher on average than the defensive rankings of the teams that Lawrence faced this year but no one has mentioned that. Wilson was surrounded by less talent than Lawrence and came away with a better statistical season. I understand an argument can be made that the teams Wilson played had better defensive rankings than the opponents of Lawrence because they didn't play anyone either based on their given conferences. Either way it will be interesting to see how Wilson adjusts to the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made some good plays at the end of that game, but watch this (admittedly terrible) video of the earlier part of the game. The first three plays shown are Wilson dropping the ball, Wilson throwing into the dirt, and the long INT, followed by Wilson getting the crap beat out of him by two CC defenders. It's an absolutely hilarious take if you can acknowledge it's out of context of the whole game and not get all bent out of shape by it.
