He looks the part...I mean I saw an out with anticipation in the Sr Bowl? I saw him look off a safety? But outside of that I cant really say.

What say you smart, draft guys (and gals)?

I doubt he'll be able to step in day 1 and be more than average. He shows plenty of talent though. Has a strong arm, prototypical QB length at 6'5, can scramble quiet effectively for someone his size and is also a proven winner (albeit against weaker competition). He'd probably be better off being drafted by the Cowboys than by the Browns. He could grow into a real fine player if he gets time to sit.

He's my number two QB behind Paxton Lynch, IMHO, both will be starters that could start day one if there is no other option.

Goff is a cream puff. I think half his hype comes from everyone thinking He's Aaron Rodgers the 2nd.

Given some time to adapt to the NFL game, I think he will be fine.

At the senior bowl he seemed to look just like what he is. Coming from a
small situation where his tools were gargantuan to the bright lights where
he was merely outstanding. He played as if he were still wondering if he
would hold up in this company. He did, sort of...
Given the time Aaron Rogers got and good coaching he will be better than fine.

Not my personal favorite, that would be Vernon Adams.

He needs a Roman type OC. In a lot of ways i see Kaepernick. Footwork, seam throws, spot reads, a bit of a first read guy, it isn't a perfect comparison, but I see aspects.

If he goes before the 3rd, somebody screwed up. IMO.

Man I LOVE Vernon Adams! I hope we can pick him up late in the draft because he's phenomenal! Of course he's too short, and he's lighter than Russell Wilson. But he would be the perfect back up, and can become an NFL starter given time.

My only question on him is, how big of a play book has he ever had to digest? Would that be a big learning curve for him?

Adams has teeny little hands. Gargoyle digits. Usually a bad sign.

I think he'll be taken by the Cowboys in the first round and will become Romo's understudy, which is really smart. He'll join a decent team that NEEDS to start planning for a successor. He certainly seems to have the physical skills and he (probably?) won't be called on right away to play.

I don't think he looked that great in the Sr Bowl, but I don't think he looked bad. Seemed to have a nice strong arm. Was athletic and didn't seem to be intimidated playing up with the Division I guys. Most QB's are a craps shoot. I think it's a smart move for someone like Dallas to take a chance on him.
