Quote:oh wins mean 0. so i guess going 0-12 is acceptable? ok

I mean if you think you can scout QB wins as a trait that will in any way translate to the NFL then LOL.



arm means little? it's not everything, but its important. if anything holds back good college QBs, its usually lack of arm strength.

'Has the arm' means a lot more than just arm strength. I broke that down into several of the parts which you also didn't agree with.



his athleticism is pretty good for a QB with his passin skill set, so... you are wrong there
I said his athleticism was his one above average trait, but it's not even close to exceptional like a Cam/Kaepernick/RG3/Vick/etc. Not sure what I'm wrong about there since above average would = pretty good to me.


 

kinda slow? not really

I said his mechanics are kinda slow, as in the time it takes for him to take the snap, drop back, and release the ball needs to get a bit faster. But I also said it's not that bad over all. It could also be because his information processing is just slow so he doesn't read the field and make the right decision as fast as he could. Either way it needs to speed up a little.



not big? history proves that means nothing as long as the player is good.

If you aren't big you need to be really, really good in a lot of other facets of the game, and he just isn't at all.



his accuracy down field is actually very good. wrong again.

I never said downfield accuracy. I said accuracy. Downfield accuracy is by far the least important of the three, and Boyd is just average in the short/intermediate and it's hard to judge how accurate he really is downfield when he is throwing to elite NFL type talents for his career...but it may be good who knows.



you say arm strength doesn't matter, but then cite velocity as a weakness? make up your mind about whats important to you. his velocity is really good anyway. you haven't watched him much apparently.

I never said arm strength doesn't matter, I said your phrase 'has the arm' didn't mean much because that phrase could literally mean half a dozen different things. If you are saying you meant it as arm strength then ok, and I say that his arm strength is average. Average doesn't mean it's a weakness, it just means he's average. Saying he isn't a top 100 prospect doesn't mean he's bad, it just means he's average. QB purgatory material. If he lands in a great situation he can be a Dalton/Alex Smith type who can 'lead' a very good team to the playoffs, and then an early playoff exit.  


 

In summation, Boyd is an average QB prospect...and your reading comprehension needs more work than Boyd does.
