    I think they’re D (just like ours) doesn’t get the credit they deserve. Jimmy G is a generally safe QB. He’s not great by any means but he doesn’t turn the ball over a lot.

    as far as lance, great arm, can move? I believe I’ve heard this story before. Doesn’t deserve any hype. Nothing of substance (production throughout a season) shown that has earned him any hype.

    Yeah I get what you're saying and I agree for the most part. I just don't see what separates him from Willis

    Draft position. That’s it so far as I can tell.

    and that in its own right is BS to base anything off of. We see busts and steals every year. Doesn’t matter how high someone gets picked til they perform. The higher the get drafted, the higher the expectation but does not mean the better the capability to perform at the NFL level, specifically with QBs since they get overhyped every year at the combine which gets them drafted way higher than they should. That trend may have actually been what caused Willis to drop.

    Willis will get better. How much better remains to be seen because the learning curve is steep. He did himself no favors by transferring to Liberty. He shouldn’t be the back up THIS year. Maybe next year. When Trey Lance is consistent, I’ll support the hype. Until then, all the guys who can run like deer and throw a mile but can’t process defenses are only going to beat the sub-500 teams. Just like VY did. The great teams will eat their lunches.

    Still waiting for some examples of raw (IE, not good) QBs who came in to the NFL and "developed" in to successful starting QBs.

    Anyone?

    Josh Allen may apply here. Raw and after his first year I thought he would never be a to tier guy. Then last year happened…
