Quote:Ok just finished watching him vs New Mexico, Nevada, and Wyoming.

 

It made me feel a lot better about what would happen if we miss out on Teddy. This guy can be a possible top 5 pick, and is better than Mariota/Manziel IMO.

 

A lot of the people on this board will be afraid of him because on the macro level he could be described as a Blaine Gabbert of sorts. Big arm, ideal size, false stereotypes of him being like his brother in the pocket, ect ect.

 

He has easily the best deep ball accuracy in the class, watch the New Mexico game to see that on display as he hits like 7 perfect bombs without missing. He will measure to have the same size and speed as Blaine, but Carr can actually use his athleticism and it shows up. Hes very decisive when to run and can extend the play a bit too. He doesnt have the pocket presence of Teddy, but hes not a sitting duck like Blaine/Chad.

 

What he lacks in anticipation he makes up for with elite arm strength. His arm is on the level of any top guy in the league. His offense is pretty gimmicky but he does what is asked of him well. The big issue with him is he is hesitant to go through his progressions. He forces some throws to his first read at times, similar to Mariota.

 

Keep in mind this is only from seeing 4 games, but i liked what I saw. All in all I would not be mad if we took him in the top 5 over the likes of Clowney and Barr. If you wait till the 2nd round or later you get the scraps, and will be hitching your wagon to a guy who historically has <20% chance of panning out.
