ACC Coaches on Brad

The only issue I have with Kaaya, is his end of game play. I wanna see the clutch gene & leadership when the team is down or not playing well. He's so accurate & can make all the throws.

If Kayaa needs to now work on being a mobile QB then it should be pretty easy to provide a QB that was a pocket passer their whole career and has made this transition for a successful career in the NFL. I haven't seen one prototype QB to use as a point of reference to prove this point.

God, some people.... I don't WANT him to be some dual threat QB, alright? I want him to be a little more accurate on the move, because it's one of the few weak spots in his game. I can't recall the game last year where he had, I think Walton, wide open for a TD. However, he was on the move and missed him wildly. He needs to work on this, because the pocket isn't always going to be a perfect protective bubble. That "coach" acting like Kaaya can make plays outside of the pocket is wrong. It might be the only time he struggles making plays.

But let me get this straight, one guy says it didn't come from a writer, but a coach. Nowhere did I say it came from a writer. Now you come along and try to put words in my mouth as well. Maybe stick to your own thoughts you seem to have a hard time arranging.

For the record, Brad Kaaya is far and away the best pro prospect we've had in 30 years at the QB position.

Here is the game you are referring to. He was throwing to Yearby at 3:25 but I don't think that his mobility was the problem. I think he just missed the throw all together.

Brad Kaaya doesn't need to be compared to anyone else. He's fine as himself. He just needs to work on his accuracy on the move. Simple as that.

I don't look at Brad and say "If he did a little more of this he'd be like Manning." "If he did this better he'd be Joe Montana." He is Brad Kaaya, and he's go an extremely bright future ahead of himself, as himself. He simply needs to work on some thing to insure those weaknesses aren't exposed by defences in the future. I am CONFIDENT Richt and Kaaya will work on his shortcomings. If he can correct those little things, he'll be the #1 overall draft pick.

The question was who is your prototype QB for reference? That question is asked only as a reference to understand your point. I tend to agree with Richt that all Kayaa needs to improve on is his footwork and everything else will improve naturally. I think what hurts most young QB's is that coaches try to make them do things that are not natural to them. Therefore, the QB usually digress over the years as opposed to improving.

For the last time, he needs to simply throw better when he is on the move. I'm not expecting him to be "mobile". Just more accurate when he IS on the move.

So Brad Kaaya has now reached the level where anyone bringing up a legit flaw in his game gets ambushed by the orange and green goggles brigade?

We all think he's good but he has never taken a big game by the balls and won it. That includes the FSU game 2 years in a row. The guy is susceptible to pressure because he can't move away from it.

As for all the draft stuff and anonymous assistant coaches, this time last year Christian Hackenberg was the #1 pick in the draft. A few years ago it was Matt Barkley. A couple years before that it was Jimmy Clausen. People on this board (including myself) were saying Stephen ****ing Morris had first round potential heading into his senior year.

I personally think Kaaya is better than all of those guys but the point is that right now there is nothing to talk about so the media is just creating narratives to fill time and they are usually pretty inaccurate this far in advance, especially on guys who have a lot left to prove in college.

This post should be tacked to the top of the board.
 
Kaaya's a choking dog. Did you see that pick he threw to close out the bowl game after Yearby led us down the field with clutch throws in the snow? Did you see him lay down and let FSU walk down the field for the game-winning score after he got us the late lead?

I would reframe the FSU game 2 years ago - "as a True Frosh with an awful HC, awful OC and an awful DC" --- Brad almost beat the #1 team in the nation. I agree he wont ever be mobile - he needs to learn how to step up in the pocket or step to the side but please dont put the FSU game on a True Frosh ---- that is just silly

Youse guys are all smart, Jimbo is the dumb one. we don't have one Starting OL that will get drafted after they've been here 4 years. Not one

You mean starters from last year team? If you are talking starters from 2015 or this fall 2016...I'll take that bet.
 
Pass to Mark Walton @10:10 Wow.
Kaaya /Walton/coley+ Will be scary

Im gotta stand up for the kid on this one. Previous Regime sucked at hurry up offense, of any kind. And I think Brad is the type of kid who is gonna do it exactly as taught.

Yeah you guys are right Brad sux, what do these coaches know...if and I said IF we didn't have the SORRIEST OL in the country, yes the fattest and the slowest and the sorriest, he wouldn't have to ****ing run like Deshaun. You idiots don't know ****, he will get drafted before Deshaun, put your $$$ up. Let the down vote begin..Hey guess what our OL sux. But keep thinking Alex Gall is good.

I'm not knocking Brad, I am knocking the fool who said he could move around outside the pocket and make plays.
Yasuke said:
Well Tom Brady isn't mobile and neither was Dan Marino so give Brad a break he's been starting since his Freshman year, plus the fact he hasn't haven't had the best Coaching and the Offensive line hasn't been that good but he will get better.

Let me see if I get this right, if he was a mobile QB you would say "yeah but" he needs to learn to be more of a pocket passer. But he's a pocket passer now you say "yeah but" he needs to learn to be more of a mobile QB. Who is your ideal prototype QB for reference?

Aaron Rodgers

Dont bother with that guy, Aaron Rodgers is the prototypical qb, can throw in the pocket and throw on the run
