From what I saw of him at UF. He has the skill and the athleticism of a great passer. He has some running ability I suppose. I was high on him before he got booted from our team, but for some reason despite his talent he always managed to nearly throw a pick or throw a pick. I never saw him improve in that respect. If he's doing it in college, the huge talent gap from college to NFL would eat him alive. I just think he's going to get exploited. He might go the route of Rosen. I always saw him as a gunslinger type like Grossman. Grossman never learned to not turnover the ball. It wasn't a matter of 'if' with him, it was a matter of 'when'. I see the same with Grier.

At UF? 3 years ago? So you're just ignoring the almost 800 passes and 2 years from WVU and going to what he did as a freshman?

He will have just as many turnovers as Grossman did when he came into the league. DO NOT WANT.

Will Grier is not Grossman.

This post screams "Will Grier went to UF for a little bit, and as an FSU fan (or dawg, or Vol) I can not root for him because I'm a dolt"
Maybe I'm not reading it right?

Anywho... to each their own I suppose, but your comp is way off.
I'm a Florida Gator for life. Don't assume to know anything about me. You have zero credibility as well. We are all posting our opinions. Yours seems to be something I'd want to put on ignore. Bye.

Oh please ignore me.
Complete my life.

Gator for life? So you're jaded about Grier going somewhere else and having some success while our team grasped for any sort of QB play the last 3 years?
Be salty at Mac for that, not Grier.

We are all posting opinions... you're right about that.
But your opinion comparing Grier to Grossman is about the most ridiculous thing I've heard since I heard Tebow could have been a Hall of Famer.

I have not seen him since he was at UF. I saw what I needed to see then. He won't amount to anything. Only time will tell whether I'm right or the opposition is right.

If players don't progress in college then why don't they just let high schoolers go straight to the pros?

 You've posted some doozies, but this one takes the cake.

A very safe/easy position to take as the vast majority of college QBs don't pan out in the NFL.
Huh

I dunno if he'll be a bust. I was all excited about him being in the NFL this year, since I'm a WVU fan all the way...

But the more I watch of him, I get a real Kirk Cousins kind of vibe....I could be dead wrong though. Whoever he goes to, I hope he succeeds and plays great.

He's got a weak arm and a very slight pause on the back part of his throwing motion . Stats are a product of the system. Another Cody Kessler. Pass on him till the 5th round.

This is just not correct.
He may not have a Josh Allen arm....

So how did Grier throw for 1,506 deep passing yards in just over 10 games in his debut season at WVU? Grier did his fair share of work on throws short of the line to gain. However, he was among the nation’s best when throwing the ball downfield as well.

He had three routes average a depth of target of well over 20 yards, including his most-targeted route type, the aptly named ‘go’ route. Grier targeted a fly route on 17 percent of his pass attempts (79 attempts), averaged a whopping depth of target of 29.5 yards and accumulated 1,102 of his total passing yards. Speaking specifically to those three routes targeted over 20 yards downfield, Grier had a passer rating above the NCAA average on all three of them, including a 100.1 passer rating on ‘go’ routes.

This was prior to this season. He only got better.
NOT actually watching football is how you get terrible takes like this and setsuna's.

But continue being idiots.
It is rather entertaining in a year where our football team can't really entertain.

A very Pascal's wager type thought eh?

I can say everyone sucks, and most of them will so I'll be right. And if they don't suck, then no real skin off my back, especially if they are good for the team I root for.

Exactly.

Pretty sure it's the guy that has Rypien #1 right now and had Kurt Benkert #1 last year.
