The arm thing, is what makes me really curious about his combine session, because the opinion on his arm strength seems to be much more varied than with the top 3. I see comments like from the article you quoted, then I also see analysts/scouts saying his arm strength is questionable/just okay, and that he has to really wind up to try to get the ball downfield, with noticeable impact on accuracy. Hoping the combine clears that up one way or the other. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Adam will call Jim as formers 49ers staff members, eventhough Jim was gone when Adam joined ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Consigliere Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 3 hours ago, Est.1974 said: 😂why do you revert to my guy / your guy lines 😂 I’m simply saying, perhaps the real value of our new stud GM is finding a QB that many, you included, perceive to be someone in the ‘QB wilderness’ category……. That's not why he came here. He came here because we can shop in the Chateau Latour, Chateau Lafitte, Chateau Margaux aisle. He didn't come here to look for villages labels.

NOLA2DC Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 20 minutes ago, FrFan said: He cried after losing not winning ! You do that in private not in front of medias. See his reaction after being called a "sheep" by a fan. He has a very sensitive/fragile ego, and too many attitude things to fix imo. I'm not going to call him future bust like some (only time will tell), but he's got too many red flags to me. Question is can someone fix all these issues ? Doug Gottlieb Calls Out Caleb Williams and His Dad After 'GQ' Draft Threats Took him quite a time to backpedal from this, but he did it. I don't think it will affect his draft status, and if his ego were so fragile, he wouldn't be the player he is today. He's still a kid. Oh, he got caught crying in public; oh, the horror. As I said, these are more "man code" violations than red flags, in my view. I remember when Lawrence came out, some people complained because he didn't say football was the end-all-be-all for him. https://www.si.com/nfl/jaguars/duval-insider-plus/column-trevor-lawrences-mindset-is-not-a-red-flag-it-is-just-different The dad angle has already been talked about.

I've combed thru that game more times than I probably should have. I know your not supposed to evaluate off of a highlight reel, but what are you supposed to do when the whole dang game is a highlight reel? It was truly an unrivaled level of bonkers. Fun to watch tho... always gives me the same reaction too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I don't believe his draft status will change, I'm just saying there were too many character issues to my liking.

NOLA2DC Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 8 minutes ago, ThatNFLChick said: Dan Orlovsky on Drake Maye That's just silly, no team is going draft a guy in the top 5 and have him sit for four years. GB has had the luxury of having a HOF guy start while a great prospect sits. I do think the ideal situation is to sit at least half the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People not used to serious forms of analysis forget to even identify and separate their target data from peripheral stuff (context; relevant vs irrelevant factors, etc ) I see it endlessly online, particularly in sports and most so in football, and of course the QB and coaching positions. I.e. in this context, the data point of Harris's presence in the room is of little value without knowing the nature of his presence (his behaviors/role). As suggested, a knowledgeable and concerned owner can want observe for reasons that fans would consider positive and not just Jerry Jones-ing it. Not unlike watching a knowledgeable restaurant owner taking a major role in hiring his head chef with the help of consultation, but still being interested and getting a take on the rest of the staff and what the interviewing process is like to increase his knowledge and awareness of his enterprise even though he has given control of that process to that chef. I like the idea of having the type of owner I just described and the best I can tell, Harris is among that type. 8 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don;t expect any of the top 3 to interview bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but there are weaknesses that both Maye and Daniels have which I say that Daniels could stand to sit too such as (struggles to consistently operate from the pocket, particularly with throws across all field levels and Inconsistent throwing motion which hampers accuracy, timing, and power). I expect both to start if they are picked #2 and #3 either place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
