I have personally seen dozens of plays where he got the ball out as fast as anyone ever with my own eyes. He has a ridiculously fast and compact Marino-esque throwing motion too. We are talking different things. How throwing MOTION is great. Very compact. His issue is that he holds the ball when he doesn’t have to. Just like Fields. Now, it can be argued that the reason they hold the ball is different, but it’s the same result unless the OL provides extended protection. Report

I have seen dozens of examples where he read the defense, made a quick decision and threw the ball like Bagent did in rhythm. He also has that fast throwing motion, but yes he makes fast decisions successfully a LOT of time. Ive seen at least 50 examples over maybe 3 or 4 games of him doing it. It is in his skill set. He held the ball much longer on other plays where WRs werent open, or he was big play hunting. He never won a game in which he put up fewer than 30 points at USC (last year or both not sure), so obviously they had no defense and he was doing his Brett Favre impression. Oh an to the protection, he has this Aaron Rodgers thing hwere when a defender breaks through the line, he circles around to redirect the defender back to the blocker he beat. It's pretty cool to watch, and youre like "he looks like Rodgers there" So often he did have a lot of time to throw by his own making. Report

He has some Mahomes in him too when plays break down. I cant wait to see it all happen. I really hope luck is with him, and it all works out like it should. Report

April 27, 20242 yr comment_213594 If they go all offense - I’ll throw out Tennessee running back (Wrigth), his USC teammate (Rice), or Van Pratt as my picks. If they go defense - I’m hoping the Oregon dlinemen is still on the board. Report

April 27, 20242 yr comment_213601 Still left worth drafting Mo Kamara. /He had 50 pressures and 13 sacks last year. 4.57 Brandon Dorlus Myles Cole Brennan Jackson/ 12.5 TFL 8.5 sacks 4.69 team captain Austin Booker Javon Solomon /16 sacks last year Gabriel Murphy/ 8 sacks 12 TFL 4.68 Kamara is the dude to get.
