All I have to say, is we have a fucking stacked team now. I’m soooooooooooooooooo glad we traded up to get a decent QB this draft.

the reason why i say this...

The best safety, or if you have K.Phillips as #1 then the #2 safety and the #3 QB in the draft, all for a 2nd and 5th? UHHHHHH Rick knows his shit.

I don’t really watch college football, so my opinion here is going to stink because I’m basing it off of the video.

First off, there were a lot of receivers who had to jump for the ball, and one guy who had to pick it up off the ground, which worries me about targeting issues.

Second, on the rare instances they showed a full play in the highlight video, JDB appeared to be fixated on where he was going to throw the ball from the very beginning. If he tries to pull that in the NFL, he’d get intercepted.

That’s really the only complaints I’ve got, and they’re based off of the highlight video. If someone who’s watched him play all year long can say I’m wrong on all of that, I’d appreciate it. He’s got a nice, tight spiral though, and it looks like he’s got no problem throwing on a roll-out. Hopefully, we’ll have several years to build him up.
