People attack Trevor too much while the guy is being coached by some of the worst coaches in the league, has a mediocre O-line and WRs have dropped like 30 passes or more... Oh and now the guy doesn't have a RB.

The truth is somewhere in the middle. The guy can be good (probably not great, not top 5) with better coaching and better talent around him. I've only watched him as a Jag and his last game at Clemson. I gotta say, in that game against Ohio St I didn't see a much different QB, never saw that talent people talk about, I was unimpressed but I thought "it's just one game and Clemson had a bad game". Now I am doubting the guy has that kind of talent, but if you ask me, the guy can develop in a good enough QB, with enough talent around him he could win a SB but he is never gonna be a Brady, Manning, Mahomes, etc.

When did this accuracy problem thing start? Are there advanced passing metrics that say Trevor is significantly worse accuracy wise? Or does this mean sometimes you see him throw higher or lower than would be ideal, and the receiver doesn't make the catch?

Isn't completion percentage the closest metric to determine that? If so, he's exactly what I think he is (and most likely will be as a rookie): up and down. 

Then again, how do you break down that to throws that truly weren't accurate, throws that hit the receiver in the hands, or throws where the WR ran the wrong route (e.g. the Tennessee debacle)

I agree in a sense that making a judgement call either way is premature (i.e. we don't exactly what he will be; I see positive signs but hey, I'm not a pro). 

But some in this thread have already labeled him, and no amount of reasoning will get them to wait and see.
