CapsSkins Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I will say Chicago made some really good moves to set up Caleb - or whichever QB they take - for success. If you're a QB you have to feel good about Keenan Allen, DJ Moore, and Kmet to throw too with D'Andre Swift beefing up the run game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s all in to them, they are in business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WashingtonRedWolves Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 It still hasn't started, is Caleb having a five-course meal before throwing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOLA2DC Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 2 hours ago, CommanderInTheRye said: Good point. What I found most interesting was Warner's belief that despite the countless hours he's spent analyzing the all 22 film of Maye, and Daniels, they're still so close that he can't choose between them. He needs to first be in a room with each of them independently; so that he can use video and the white board, to interrogate them about their thinking process on individual plays, before he can make a decision. My bigger rhetorical question is: If someone with Warner's experience, expertise, and knowledge, can't decide which qb he prefers, without first meeting with each of them, how can the talking heads on TV, or for that matter, any of us, make a conclusive determination with any confidence that we're correct? . No one can, and that's why I don't think it's worthwhile debating at this point. Everyone has their preference, and that's all it is. I can only objectively acknowledge that Jayden is a little light. Even the biggest quarterbacks can't handle a clean shot from Arnold, Micah, or Bosa. Drake checks all the physical boxes, but Sam Darnold is on his fourth or fifth team now. I have to admit I've been wrong multiple times, and I did think Tua was a safer pick than Herbert. Whoever we pick, I just hope we give him all the support he needs and don't rush to start him. Sometimes, you get lucky with a guy like CJ who's ready on day one, but most of the time, I would rather the kid sit. Finally, I think Penix could be special if he goes to a good team in the late first or mid second. I agree with Kurt. He throws the best ball in the group, but you can't look past his injuries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Really showing off Calebs arm talent with the out routes. Dude has a gun. 15 minutes ago, Est.1974 said: I think if they take Caleb they trade out of #9 and total screw a team. CHI only have 4 in total. I know I am going to be looking to trade 9 in the ES draft. Mayeb 1 too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Shortest QB pro day ever. Not even sure he threw 30 balls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) This guy is a natural thrower, makes it look so fluid and easy. The other guy I'm intrigued with is Tahj Washington. Deep threat, scat back type. Wonder if he is on the Commanders radar in the 5th/6th round... 2 minutes ago, clskinsfan said: Shortest QB pro day ever. Not even sure he threw 30 balls? Yea, that was over pretty quick.

Skinsinparadise Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) I think the throwing at prodays is meaningless. But among the ones I've watched, Caleb was so so in the context of accuracy. But was good enough. Tidbits that came out in the broadcast. Bears have been there since Monday and had dinner with Caleb. Caleb didn't want to do team visits until after this proday.

It’s not just the qb. They evaluate the other positions as well. Texas and Ohio state had pro days today as well I believe and all 32 will be there too.

Generally agree with much of your post. Only real major difference I have is your belief that debate isn't worthwhile, because we lack the possibility of certainty. I'm at heart a relativist when it comes to human affairs. Certainty for me is a nice concept but that's the province of the gods not mortals. Half the ills suffered by mankind throughout history are the result of people claiming absolute certainty. On the forum I tend to applaud arguments for the thought process behind them, more so than actual conclusions. That's why I'm comfortable "trophying", "up thumbing", "liking", or "double fisting" posts with conclusions on both sides of the "great" Maye vs Daniels debate. I think there's always inherent value in discussiing divergent views-- provided all parties respect and are civil with each other, especially when they disagree. But then again I'm an old fossil, keenly aware that the values I grew up with are largely fading in the current zeitgeist. The world evolves, but "the dude abides." 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a whole lot of people missed on Herbert. One big question was due to the dink and dunk offense that Oregon ran. A lot of experts thought it was due to Herbert but it seems it was more on the offense that the team wanted to run. Another thing was that his junior was only so-so. Yes, he was definitely the number 3 at best based on what info was available at the time. Even now, it could be argued that Tua actually has probably had the better career to this point while Burrow has obviously been the best of the group when healthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
