It's hard to tell imo, without watching All-22 of a number of games. But LSU leads the NCAAF in yards per pass attempt (1st link) and 4th in yards per completion (2nd link). Those are pretty good signs. Air Force is in both which seems weird, but they run an option offense so they shock teams w/ the pass.

Highlights show plenty of balls down the field, but they are highlights:



Note - It doesn't seem to matter what type of offense teams run, QB's can hit or bust from any type college offense. Most teams all run the same stuff now too. I think you could ask the same question for all 3 of the other guys as well.

WR's would love playing with him, that's for sure. Chicks dig the long-ball too.

One of the espn guys just said Washington should give up the number 2/3 overall pick to the bears for Justin Fields .. said it was a no brainer.. I'm I missing something??

Pass. His contract is almost up too, and he would be due tons more money. That is not a viable option imo. Take a rookie and have him for 5 years at least, under reasonable contract.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if the Bears kept him and traded down out of the No. 1 spot for another team that needs a QB (just not us).

I'll be willing to wager good money that if the Bears stay put at the #1, they are going to draft a QB.

Not even Vegas would take that bet. I can't see how they would stay put, they could trade it for a haul and still get a top 7 pick and take an elite WR/TE/OT/Edge. But Fields wasn't drafted by their FO so we don't know how they feel about him. The Bears could keep that gravy train going for years, whoever trades up to the first pick is likely going to be bad for the next couple of years so will be giving them top five picks in 25 and 26.

I'd agree with that. If they stay it's a QB, if they roll with Fields, it's a trade-down. Someone will want their QB at No. 1.

It’s just a hot take. How anyone could say that when they don’t even know what type of offense we are running is beyond silly

Hot take? More like a shit take? Nobody in their right mind would even suggest that without being high as a kite.

I think doing that would count as the definition of having "no brain" so in a sense he is absolutely correct. After all it is a prerequisite for a TV analyst job.

Zero chance. That's laughable.
