Quote:Before this become a flame thread (that is not my intention), I am actually very curious to know how exactly did Carr climb up the draft board in the eyes of the media. This is one of the strangest rise up the draft board -- or just straight hyping from the media -- from a QB that I've seen in a couple of years.


This is his game against USC. All I see is that he ran the typical spread offense where dropbacks and footwork weren't required. Correct me if I'm wrong but this is all I see: a first-read, get the ball out of his hand as fast as possible, bubble screens to the left/right with an occasional roll out to the left/right. He didn't make any adjustment from the line of scrimmage. In fact, I don't see much pressure from the USC pass rushers at all, mostly because he got the ball out of his hand to his first read as fast as he could.

(Again, I just don't see it. What is it that people are seeing that I can't see myself?)


If there's another video where Carr actually displayed first round material on game tape, please post it. I really want to see it.
