NFL Draft Reality

It’s crazy that people still think it’s not worth it to sign blue chip quarterbacks. “You can just get guys in the portal”. Can you? We lucked into Cam Ward not declaring. After watching the draft he likely would have gone by round 3 if not 2. If we didn’t get Cam who were we going with? Poff? Will Howard who can’t beat out the competition at OSU? DJ Ukelele? No thanks. Even Penix was a huge risk. He put up decent numbers at Indiana but had a ton of injuries. There’s a reason he ended up at Washington.

Do blue chip quarterbacks bust? Of course they do. Should you abandon recruiting them to chase diamonds in the rough or hope that there’s a new guy for you in the portal every year? **** no.
part of the reason why he ended up at Wash was bc his QBC from Indiana (where he had great numbers) ended up getting the HC gig at Wash.

Bump for a few folks that missed this...

A safety check may be in order ... they may be near death on the "high school is the only way to build a roster" hill...
