On top of that, yes his numbers did look good didn't they.. unfortunately college numbers mean just about nothing, if they did Derek Carr would be a top 3 QB after his last year in college throwing for 50 tds 8 ints and 5,000 yards.


I was pointing out that he was making similar mistakes in college, that he did last season. While having top tier college WRs and Olinemen. Since everyone wants to blame his performance on the players around him, and not the fact that he missed 5 yard passes consistently.

But I guess we react before reading.

Name all the QB prospects since Luck that you think we're better than Lawrence as a prospect?

You could argue none were, if you were going soley on potential in terms of what he could do based on his physical talents. However if we're basing it on their actual play in college and not just measurables theres a long list of guys you could put ahead of him as a prospect in terms of being NFL ready or having a "higher floor" as someone might say.

Coming out of their respective drafts tho, had I had the option at that time of taking Trevor or these guys, i likely would have taken the others.
Herbert
Burrow
Josh Allen
Mahomes
Watson
Bridgewater 
Carr


Admitedly, Bridgewater would have been a big mistake. As of right now the only one of those outside of Teddy I wouldn't swap him for is Carr.. but that opinion will quickly change if Trevor is even half as bad as he was in 2021.
