I know you don't comprehend well but I gave a list. Bama Qbs don't translate well to the NFL.

I just went based on history. I know you know it all.

My bad for offending you.


I gave you an educated opinion based of history facts. Now let me give you one based on my personal opinion.

Tua is overrated. You want a QB, get Kyler Murray aka Baby Russell Wilson from Oklahoma.

Genuinely curious. Based on your history facts, which college should we draft a QB from?

Also could make a list like that for most any school and aside from 1 maybe 2 hits. The rest will be misses. Oklahoma for example:

Jason White
Rhett Bomar
Landry Jones
Sam Bradford
Blake Bell
Trevor Knight
Baker Mayfield*

*it's still too early to tell how well his career will actually go.

Can't speak for everybody. But I look for accuracy first and foremost. Usually looking for that 64% - 70% completion percentage. Then I look at the conference they play in, the strength of schedule, the TD:INT ratios and whether or not they have a tendency to show up in big games or moments or shy away in big games or moments. Once you see all of that in their game logs or on game days you start to look at film or highlights. Pay attention to the teams they're getting higlights on and and always look at the score before you get excited.

I don't care about mobility that much. It's nice. But you win from the pocket in the NFL. Footwork, arm strength, accuracy and reputation in big games/moments is really all I pay attention to. Mayfield was highly accurate coming out of college. And I watched him school my Bulldogs in a close bowl game. I liked him throughout the year. That game was enough for me to know he would be decent or possibly excel at this level. 

Watson did enough at Clemson and showed up against Alabama on the biggest stage of college football. He was accurate coming out as well. It's just a few things you have to look for. 

I really like Haskins for this reason. Highly accurate, protects the football, has just recently showed up big time in a big time college rivalry game. And he's potentially going to see a few more big games to showcase his abilities. Grier looked respectable in that loss to Oklahoma on Friday night.

But he did cough it up twice for two TD's. So you hope if he does make it to the next level that he's not going to be more turnover prone than what he showed in that one. Now in fairness there was a ticky tack call on a block out of bounds that swung the momentum but you have to rise above all of that and make another play while faced with that.

Because in the NFL that [BLEEP] is only going to get worse. But we'll see.
