Quinton Flowers junior highlights SIAP

He's a definite take, but not as a QB. I just dont see how he'll ever run a big time college offense.

Had 5 TD's today against Coral Gables including a 75 yard bomb and a 64 yarder that was called back on holding.

All of the Quinton Flowers doubters are funny to me. He's going down as one of the greatest in Dade County history. 5TDs today vs. Gables

LULZ @ Pete not understanding the difference between out-athleting your way through high school and being able to do that in college and, more importantly, the NFL.

Oh I completely understand the difference. The thing that people don't understand about him is that he is working with next to nothing as far as offensive line and playmakers. He has Jovon Durante this year, but the amount of dropped passes, penalties, and flat-out mistakes made by his teammates last year was staggering. There are special athletes throughout sports who do unprecedented things at their stature, size, etc. and I think he can be one of those guys. Surround him with Stacy Coley, Johnnie Dixon, Joseph Yearby, Brandon Powell, and that offensive line and I think that would take his game to an even higher level. The funny thing is he isn't the most "athletic". He runs in the 4.7s and doesn't test necessarily well in combine/camp settings. He's just a great football player.

Neither of you get it, he's doing this in HIGH SCHOOL, not college, not the NFL. Lots of guys are the man in high school but aren't big enough to continue on at the next level.
 
Pass..... str8 on 5'10 athletes playing QB, who all think they are the next Russell Wilson, and dont want to consider playing another position where they might actually have a chance at an NFL career.
 
I want Anquan Boldin, but we shouldn't take him as a QB. Those are valuable reps that could be going to our fourth-string quarterback. If it doesn't work out at quarterback, maybe he could play at another position. But what if he doesn't want to? Then -- god forbid-- he may transfer.

It's just not worth the risk.

lol Ok i see ur point.... but look at the situation Miami already has Brad Kaaya in this class, Alin Eduoard, and Malik Rosier.

If we give Flowers an offer it's going to automatically be for another position other then QB which is something he isnt trying to do.

And if we bs him and say its a QB offer then he's going to see right thru it anyway.... how can that situation work out?
 
Flowers has an offer but it's not for qb so he won't consider us. What does Rosier possess that Flowers doesn't, strictly from a qb standpoint? Lets assume Edourad will be out of the picture.

The question is who would you rather have: Flowers, Eduoard or Rosier? Flowers is the best player of the three, IMO.

As a QB prospect I prefer Malik Rosier. I think he has the most upside.


As a college QB prospect Im not a big fan of Quinton Flowers. Im not a fan of point guards who lead their team in scoring. Moreover, he plays in a playground offense. In college, teams will have linebackers with his speed and D-coordinators who will keep him in the pocket and expose his lack of development as a passing QB.


One man's opinion.

See guys like Quinton Flowers are made to have success at the college level.... the field is spaced out more due to how far a part the hash marks are in the middle of the field compared to the NFL which gives them more room to make plays.

You put Quinton Flowers in Urban Meyers system or Oregon's system and he's going to have a field day... i just dont see why guys like him are so interested in losing so much potential money by choosing to only play QB.

Lets say I agree that Flowers is the better QB b/c of his athleticism right now.... but who do you think has the most upside in UMs offense as a QB who has to make so many different types of passes for the offense to click?.... and i havent seen much of Quinton so i'm curious to know how good of a QB he really is in terms of timing and accuracy.
