The Official Thread of the 2020 QB Class

No need to draft a QB before the 5th at this point. If we are going all in on RT and BDH for a window to win a superb owl, those first 4 picks need to be impact players and the backup QB should be a vet.

 

I think almost everyone agrees with you.

This thread should probably be locked. It was made in late September, before the Tanny train got rolling.

 

Detroit should draft Tua and look to trade Stafford.

 

Tua’s a lefty. That spells bad news for his chances in the NFL.

 

People do not realise it does make a difference. Lefties can make it, and have, but it is something they need to overcome. NFL offences are built around the QB being right handed, with the strong side on the right and the blind side on the left.

Additionally, receivers have to adjust. The ball spins the opposite way and, as such, on medium to long passes the ball breaks in the opposite direction.

None of this is huge, it is not like trying to play baseball with left handed infielders, but it is something that needs to be compensated for.

 

Lefties can make it?
You mean Steve Young is the exception and he had Jerry Rice.

 

There are a few others, Boomer Esaison (sp) was solid. So was Jim Zorn. Mike Vick was good but he could run.

 

Eh, arguable on Vick and Zorn but ya Esiason was good. The think zorn also got some of that Steve largent action so again we’re talking about having the greatest WR of all time.

 

NFLN did a top 10 Lefty QBs, which was pretty mean to Scott Mitchell lol.

They had him number 10, then number 9 was everyone else who did not make 1-8.


This is a different one



I do not agree with number 6

 

You do realize that left handed QBs are really rare to begin with, right? Kids that can throw and are left handed are automatically pushed to pitch.
