60% of the time it works all the time. Nice

I am slowly warming up to trading up for Caleb. We just have so many damn holes. If we could still acquire a quality OT and G plus some defense through FA I would be completely on board. The only reason I don’t like Caleb is his height and that is a terrible reason.

I think we all just have to trust the process with new leadership. I don't want to trade up for Williams, but if that's what Harris/Peters determine is the right call, then we just have to roll with it. The alternative, is absolutely hating everything from the jump, and that's not where I want to be.

Exactly it is like when you start dating and you look past the little things that typically annoy you. Once you start progressing as couple you decide whether to cut bait.

The fact that some fans on X are saying trade for Fields is mind boggling to me. He is the complete opposite of KK Offense... People really have no idea about real Xs and os

This is just nasty

At this point these writers need something to write about, saying CHI picking Williams with the first pic is not click bait but its the realty

The man has an absolute howitzer for an arm. He would probably be in the top 5 in the NFL in arm strength from the jump.

What I don't like about his highlights and he doesn't make the tape himself, is most of them aren't just straight drop-back throws from the pocket. They mostly have him moving around before throwing it. That's a great skill to have, but in the NFL, most of your throws need to be direct pocket passes.

I was listening to an interview Kevin Sheehan did on 980 with someone associated with USC. They were saying that he had one of the worst lines in D1 football so I would like to know how much of that is preplanned to compensate for that. Still he has to be able to show he can throw from a pocket.

i wish there was some Madden like stat that showed percent chance of being a franchise QB

Example:
CW 90%
DM 82%
JH 79%

Then you could say is it worth trading the farm for an 8% chance CW will be your guy for the next ten years

I mean i guess true nfl scouts kind of have it in their heads; i guess i just like to know what they think those percent's are

He's a rare talent for sure but at what cost?
