Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I can't find a 2016 version of this thread yet. It's that time of year already and I want to talk Connor Cook. We've pretty much been eliminated from the playoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â My horse in that race after watching a smattering of games of the top guys is Cody Kessler. Â I think Cook and Hackenberg are going to disappoint.

Rufus T Firefly Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Well, as long as we're looking at QBs from the Pac-12, Jared Goff might be the most interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bird_1972 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Agree with above post. Â I'm eager to see who the top 3 QB prospects are this draft as it is likely we will be in a position to draft one of them. Â This time ... let's please draft a QB who is not just an athletic freak who played in a gimmick system and instead take a guy who can play the position, read defenses, make adjustments, and is durable. FOR A CHANGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOR A CHANGE! Â 3 athletic qbs that could make it to the draft are cardale jones, barrett, and boykin. Â Possible that those guys are 1st rounders (though I doubt it on jones). Â I'm of the personal opinion that if we're drafting top 5 again we shouldn't go qb unless one really stands out this year. Â This upcoming draft class might be one of my favorites in years, there's going to be a ton of talent and we could really set this team up by not reaching.

Wow, I just disagree with most of that, starting with the fact that I think Jones is the only one of those 3 with much of a chance to be a 1st. Â But I do agree that next year's draft looks real interesting. The depth of this year's draft and the promise of the next is why I thought a real rebuild where we dealt some vets for picks and some picks for future picks would have had so much potential. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor703 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 No love for Jacoby Brissett? I'm gonna watch Kessler, Cook, Brissett and Hackenburg. Ugh this is disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. Â I just don't think Jones' accuracy is near where it needs to be. Â His wr did him a lot of favors last year. Â And if he sits behind Barrett this year? Â No chance he goes in the 1st. Â I think he's more Logan Thomas than Cam Newton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he can sit all year and still someone likely takes him in the first on physical talent alone. Â But Boykin isn't an NFL QB at all. Barrett needs a whole lotta development to get there. Maybe by 2017. But the chances of I'm going in the first in 2016 seem remote, at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
