When you guys watched Mendoza, did you really think "Oh, yeah, this guy should be the #1 overall pick in the draft!!!!"

[filmcane]

I didn't. I mean, he's gutsy, but I thought he was good-ish and gutsy. I would be ****ED if my team wasted a #1 overall pick on him. Not trying to be sour grapes and congrats to him on his natty, but meh. He didn't seem elite to me.

 

[WesternMDCane]

No, just like all year his receivers make those contested catches every game, he just has to to throw the ball close. How the **** he wasn’t tackled on his td run is beyond me, that ****ed me off the most.

 

[HTXCane]

Is that how he normally speaks or did he have a concussion? If that’s him, the NFL is going to eat him up.

 

[ArchersFury]

He's not a number 1 pick. He plays with a ton of heart but hes not some elite talent.

 

[ShadowSpring]

nope. Not sure Carson with another summer getting his arm stronger isn't better TBH

 

[nvlahos]

We’ll see

Looked very tough and sharp but maybe somewhat a systemic QB with limited athleticism and ability to move around in the pocket or outside the pocket to make throws

 

[Tweed]

He is really not that good at all IMO.

He's a game manager and those guys shouldn't be the #1 pick in the draft.

 

[Suhrthing]

Nah, but I’m done doubting him lol.

Yeah he's a huge nerd, that's the real him

 

[SaiyaMan305]

No but he is the best QB available. He will be a bust tho. Chambliss tho he has promise

 

[joglen15]

I like Mendoza. Good kid.

But he basically like Marcus Mariota type talent to me.

 

[Negro-Wan Kanobi]

Mendoza reminds me of a poor man Nick Foles. Doesn't have the arm talent he has, but makes good decisions and gutsy.

But definitely not a #1 pick.

 

[TerragonSix]

Honestly with the pressure we generated, he doesn't seem like a guy that will be durable in the league. That hero running **** will take 5 years off his career if he tries that in the NFL. I think he will be a very average QB, maybe 4-5 years in the league, but an All-Pro? I don't think so. If he had trouble with Bain and Mesidor, wait till he gets to the NFL where there is a Bain and Mesidor on every team, with a secondary to back them up.

 

[NateDogg]

Only shot he has at the next level is to lose his virginity before training camp. Absent that he has no chance.

 

[Jonnyblaze]

Nah, but I’m done doubting him lol.

This. At some point you gotta give it to him. He’s clearly a gamer.

 

[We'retheBoss]

feels like his ceiling is Jared Goff. But I don't know what to make of him since his entire role at IU is RPOs then back shoulder fades when a conversion is needed

 

[P-Tizzle]

Back shoulder fades against NFL corners who every single one of them is 6-2 will be tough. Look at our game tonight. Lucas and OJ were stout. They targeted the lighter O’Connor and it worked.

 

[ShadowSpring]

No but he is the best QB available. He will be a bust tho. Chambliss tho he has promise

Give me Chambliss

 

[Stingarov]

I didn't. I mean, he's gutsy, but I thought he was good-ish and gutsy. I would be ****ED if my team wasted a #1 overall pick on him. Not trying to be sour grapes and congrats to him on his natty, but meh. He didn't seem elite to me.

No. Hes more Alex Smith than Aaron Rodgers.

 

[AtlAtty]

He’s not Cam Ward if that is the comparison.
