The Too Soon 2022 NFL Draft Thread

[skinsfaninok]

We don’t know how good Pickett or Willis or Ridder will be.

Nobody thought Josh Allen or Justin Herbert would be this good.

You can’t just say “there isn’t any great QBs in this draft” you have to keep picking one until you find that Gem.

Picketts issue is the gloves which he wears because he has small hands and they help grip the ball better.

That is a concern but not the end of the world.. Joe Burrow has small hands too but he’s doing just fine.

But if we had a QB guru on staff, Ridder to me is the one who can be developed into a top flight QB.

I agree with this, I think he has the most upside of any QB in this draft. He’s also sneaky athletic and can move around well.

Strong of Nevada has declared for the draft. He may be the kind of guy that will sneak up some draft boards. Problem is he really isn't mobile at all.

Then no thanks. An NFL QB today must have some mobility to move around. Does not have to be Tarkenton, but he can't be the type who sits in the pocket like a dead duck.

Burrow isn't very mobile, Brady is a slug.. It's an added bonus but not a huge factor

[skinsfan69]

If you look at Strong drop back and throw the ball, you could argue he is the best guy in the draft in those areas. Elite arm talent and accuracy is not in question at all.

I haven't watched much on him, but for any QB if the arm talent and decision making abilities are there, he can get away with not being mobile in the NFL.

The concern with Strong is the long term health of his knee.

But he is good and can really throw the rock.

This staff has produced 20 Passing TDs out of a guy that would be 31 other teams QB2.. I think with a legit passer we could see a big leap

Yeah I'd like to see this offense with a QB that is capable of stretching the field and making all the throws.

Hopefully Terry stays but man he's gotta be depressed with these QBs every yr

[Ohioskins]

Burrow IS quite mobile.

[Ohioskins]

Wow, that article was a really good summary. Based on that survey, I would pass on a first round QB pick, draft the best player available and then go with Jurkovec in the second round.

Agree. I think that's what they thought they were getting with Fitz but it didn't work out.
