Penix is probably the most talented but when he was at Indiana was injury prone, behind our line he'd never survive a season. Richardson is a redshirt sophomore and needs to develop more, probably not ready to start in the NFL, Levis is the best fit for us in my opinion 6'3" 232 strong, not saying he is Josh Allen but there are definitely some similarities.

I'd say it is almost for certain we draft one of these 3 with our first, unless we trade it again!

penix is staying in school


i think we get Levis

Firing someone will not change what we have on the roster, unfortunately. I do think it is time we see some young guys getting lots and lots of playing time.

I hadn't heard that, I think it would be a mistake considering he couldn't stay healthy at Indiana, if he gets injured next season he could lose his payday!

Did you see the TCU game or Purdue v Michigan?

There are some talented Qbs that will be available

I think scouts are higher on Levis than fans and media right now. I think Levis is the target. But we might have to be above Carolina to get him. Also Carolina might like Richardson given the success of Newton. Fans are still talking about Young and Stroud, but I think Levis might go before them. I think Levis might be the top QB taken.

There is a second tier also like Bo Nix and Tanner McCee

The other option is: go left tackle if a QB isn’t there. Develop Ehrlinger and play him. Try for a QB next year which will be the best class in years.

Houston, New Orleans, and possibly Detroit will also be looking for a qb, along with Carolina. Hell, maybe the Bears ditch their guy as well.

There will be some competition for the quarterbacks.

Yes, Duggan played his heart out, I will be anxious to see how he does against Michigan, but yes, I was very impressed and a guy with that kind of competitiveness could make any team better. I like O'Connell, and if the Colts go LT with the first pick he might be there for the second?

Why would Detroit being looking at a QB? Goff looks like the guy the Rams thought they drafted, Goff is better than any of these guys coming out in my opinion.

Watch the QB School by J.T O'Sullivan. That convinced me that I want Levis.

I think O'Connell is a year late. Last year, he was one of the most accurate guys in college football. This year, he threw a lot of passes to the wrong team. But I also thought Orton would never make it to the NFL, and he started for a few teams in his career.

OConnell has the best completion % for PU, for a career. He is second in 300 yd, 400 yd, and 500 yd games for Purdue. Some guy named Brees is first in those records.

If you can find the Mich/Purdue game out there, he was the reason Purdue was as close in terms of points

The Cowboys just scored again.

ChoppedWood 12-05-2022 09:46 PM

Richardson just declared. I'm taking him over Stroud, Young, Levis.

Ideal, no, but he is big, strong arm, and most critical- he is mobile.

Comparisons; Cam, Dak, and Josh Allen.

If the floor is Cam, and the ceiling Allen, then that sounds about like Dak, which is fine with me. Dak isn't going to have 17 great games in a season, but he's going to have 12 solid games, 3 incredible games, and a couple crappers. I can live with that.

With what we've seen from this line and the rebuild that's going to need to happen, that ability to manufacture yards with the feet will be critical in the next 2-3 years.

He is a project, no thanks. Sophomore with tendency to fold in a big game. If he was a senior with a little more experience I would be all for it. He is by far the best athlete of any of the QB's this draft

We need a crystal ball, because you know one of the guys, is going to be great, no way they are all busts or just average...at least one will be exceptional, but which one? Colts should have a chance for one of them!

Actually, the referees reviewed it and the runner was ruled to be down at the one-yardline ...... it's still 54-19.

Hey, did you see Baker Mayfield is available? Maybe you should start a new thread!

Drew Brees was not a first round draft pick. The Chargers couldnt figure out what to do with him. How did it work for the Team that figured out how to use a guy who is very accurate.

O’Connell is Jim Harbaugh with accuracy. He is tough, he can take a hit. He is mentally tough. See the IU game.

He is 2 years older than most rookies and has never been the first choice, but when he got a chance he showed he could play.

Where ever he goes, I will root for him. He may not be the best athlete, he is a ballplayer

I wouldn’t be opposed to O’Connell.

Don't tell me about toughness and stats. Tell me about trait, athleticsm, arm, anticipation, about what he does well.

In short give me a reason that I won't waste my time watching tape on the kid.

Ok

1. Accurate. Excellent accuracy and can throw guys open.
2. Can throw on the run
3. Mentally tough. Found out brother died Friday, beat IU on Saturday
4. Excellent leadership

He rises to the occation , doesnt play down to weak opposition.

Okay, I'll take a look.

Lov2fish 12-06-2022 10:32 PM

Aidan is not a first round draft choice. Would I draft him though? Yes.

I don't agree he throws people open. He is accurate. He is accurate rolling out. His arm is adequate. He is as tough as a back alley brawler, mentally and physically. When he misses he tends to miss high. In the NFL a miss high usually ends in a tip, and a pick. His field vision is average. He has the attributes to be a good QB in the NFL. Not sure he would ever be elite, but we don't need elite. Above average works for the way this team has been constructed the last few years, and the philosophy we are building on now.

He threw for over 500 yards against Michigan-State last year.
He also threw for over 500 against Tennessee
Horrible game against Iowa a month or so ago
Wisconsin had him puzzled and confused as well
