What's up guys. I just made a new write-up over at blackand teal, here's the link.

 

Thoughts?

Or no thoughts? Haha

Good write up. I dont find his lack of anticipation a big deal because of his arm strength. Cutler has the same issue and he fan squeeze the ball into tight windows even if hes a bit late, because of how strong his arm is.


Did he get pressured a lot in this game? I havent seen many plays of him manipulating the pocket, its my only area of question about him, that and his decision making at times.

Yeah he was pressured a lot, especially in the first half. He doesn't move around as well as Teddy in the pocket but he managed well enough. He should have been sacked more but wasn't because of his pocket movement. His anticipation is getting a lot better, which has me really excited about him.
He good.

Either way, I've read some of your other stuff and I'm very impressed. Glad to have somebody who thoroughly explains what they like in a prospect. Draftbreakdown is a treasure.

Thanks man. And yeah I don't know what's up with the site right now. Unfortunate.
I read your analysis and as usual well done!  Carr is an intriguing guy for me.  I haven't gotten to watch him enough so I am going by reading analysis such as yours.  He seems to have most of the tools to be successful.  What are your feelings on him starting his first year?  Do you think he'd benefit with us signing a veteran to tide us over until he's ready or is he a possible NFL ready guy?

He looks like Jesse Pinkman here.

I was thinking Ryan Mallet.

Thanks man. I think he could start day 1. Especially in Jedd's system, with it's combination of routes through all different distances. He has experience and talent throwing everywhere on the field.
I just hope hes not off the board by the time we pick. Its likely the Vikings and Texans both go QB.
But that corner route tho..
