Once that one foot gets in the ground and he changes trajectory he accelerates so fast, too. And even with the defense loading the box, he cant be stopped.

That guy does everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Look at Smitty blocking the edge on that big run. These two dudes are the truth. As is Pitts. arguably the three best non QB offensive players in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Dickerson goes down and literally the entire Alabama team comes out to see if he’s okay. I legitimately got goosebumps. Wow. You wonder why they are so successful? That’s why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I haven’t studied Mac Jones in full, but he kind of feels like he’s a modern version of Alex Smith bred for this era of football and embracing the newer methods of scheme and reads. They don’t play too alike, but he seems so calm under pressure and in the pocket. Good with the ball. Smart. Not gonna wow you with his abilities all in all but he doesn’t do ANYTHING poorly it seems. I think he and Lance are both great fits here developmentally.

Anselmheifer Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Pitts is a top 8 talent. I hope he doesn’t go to a division rival. He just doesn’t look covetable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Kyle Pitts is Calvin Johnson. college defenders guard him the way they did Calvin Johnson. just blatant penalties every snap where they dare the refs to call them.

Going Commando Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 You can tell the other Bama players love Landon Dickerson. It feels to me like he's going to find a way to play in the CFP. By hook or by crook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matchup problem for the guys he goes against, athletic, fast, good stems, big. I don’t want to speak for him but I think it was just a comp stylistically.

Going Commando Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Complete team win from Bama. offense, defense, special teams all strong. They have the look of a championship team, but Clemson has an All Time Great QB/RB combo. That is the match up we need to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy Yoda Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Lance, Jones, or Trask, I dont care which one really. They're all developmental guys that need to sit a year. Draft whichever one has the highest floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Trask once again holds the ball longer than he has time to do so. It’s a problem for him. He is an accurate passer and someone in the NFL is going to kick the tires on him. Gonna have to work on getting the ball out quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that I find weird about Trask is he shows good straight line athleticism. But get him moving laterally and he is a disaster. I dont think that is something you can fix with coaching. To me he is an NFL backup. But who am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing with Trask is that despite a middling arm the dude can put the ball on a pin at times. Like, ridiculous accuracy. That counts. The problem is he only does that when he has a clean pocket and can take his time. He holds the ball longer to set up his pass and that results in him getting hit more often than you’d like. He doesn’t have active feet, either. Part of me wonders if that’s because he needs to make sure they’re totally set to have any kind of zip on his passes and he doesn’t want to risk being out of position too much. When he moves he seems to navigate the pocket fairly well... but he’s not a runner. And he’s not a scrambler. He’s an accurate passer who has some work to do, but can navigate the pocket when he keeps his feet active. He’s a big time developmental prospect I think. But who knows where he ends up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what going to make or break him, and if he goes to a bad team and has to start early, can he improve on it while being smacked around on a weekly basis? That would concern me so much more than his arm strength. He looks to have an innate feel for space in the pocket in the pocket which will help him to an extent. 17 minutes ago, clskinsfan said: Agreed.

To me he is an NFL backup. But who am I? His feet are very good, especially for a taller QB. I don’t need him to carry the ball on a zone stretch, I need him to bounce around the pocket and reset his base efficiently, and that’s actually one of his strengths. Big contributor to his accuracy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anselmheifer Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Couldn't be more impressed by Devonta Smith today. He did everything. Had a good punt return. Recovered an onside kick. Blocked his ass off down field. I think that whoever drafts him is going to get a high with some parallels to McLaurin. Smart. Versatile. Hard working. High character. He's going to do everything a team asks of him and he's going to do it well. I'm less convinced he can beat press coverage, but it is what it is. He's a top 10-12 pick for sure.

Going Commando Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Najee makes life easy for his blockers. So many of those 8+ yard runs that he effortlessly picks out were blocked for like two yards. That kid is about three or four years away from being the best running back in the NFL. He is a Leveon Bell clone. He and Pitts and Lawrence and Sewell are the four biggest talents in the class. The unicorns. Parsons is #5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has Peterson-like vision, his cuts remind me of what Peterson does, he's so good at finding those small holes up the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
