If Cardale is even marginally close to as good as he looked last year, he is a top 5 pick in the next draft due to QB inflation.

Anyone have espn insider? Mcshay's 2016 mock is up

@ESPN_BigTen: Big Ten dominates McShay's way-too-early 2016 mock draft http://t.co/WqNXLrVXwv

Obviously just a wild guess at this point but I would love Oakman from Baylor. He was a beast this past year.

Cardale with their WR core is such a waste of talent. Might be the only place he'd be downgrading from OSU's weapons this year.My favorite storyline from this past draft is everyone saying "the Buckeyes might have won the championship, but they had so few guys drafted their talent level clearly isn't close to the SEC".

Guess that depends a lot on whether or not Josh Gordon is back next year or not. He instantly makes that WR corps formidable.

Anyone else think the Cardale Jones hype is premature?

yes and no. He's a terrific NFL prospect. He will be drafted high if he plays well (and IF he plays at all) this year. But he's still a bit of a project at the next level. If he's drafted in the top 10 due to his size/arm/ability it's likely he will go to a bad team and start right away. He won't be as NFL ready as others due to the offense he is coming from. He would be better off sitting for a year imo.

 

Other QBs next year like Connor Cook and Cody Kessler from pro style offenses I think i would say go ahead and start them.

 

Actually, the Bills would be a great place for Jones if EJ doesn't turn the corner and they keep Cassel as a bridge. He would fit right in to this offense.

He is Daunte Culpepper or a better running Ben Roethlisberger. His skill set is ideal and he lit up everyone in his way. He is definitely raw but it is not surprising that teams are interested in him. He looks like a 1st round pick to me but as YOLO said would be better served sitting out a year.

Thanks guys. I watched a little and it's promising, but the lack of sample size is suspect. Measurables are there. Curious about his football IQ but we shall see this season. I will watch closely

If the rumors of Everett Golson picking FSU as his transfer school are true then expect him to be on that list somewhere as well.

Maybe so... As a result of the weapons that he will have?

Yeah, he'd be stepping into a good situation. And he's only a couple years removed from an undefeated regular season with an admittedly weak schedule.

i am not a huge Golson fan but I don't think ND has had a ton of talent. I could see him looking better at FSU. I think it's funny watching these schools hold their breath on him - he's kind of meh imo. Seems like they would have better incoming talent at the position and wouldn't need a grad transfer.

I can see why FSU wants him. Winston left after just playing two years and Coker left the program as well. Maguire is the only guy on their roster who has thrown a pass in a game and he didn't look like anything special when he did play.

 

I really don't see him as a guy who translate into much in the NFL game.

They might see Golson as an opportunity to redshirt a quality freshman without conceding an entire season to mediocre play at the position
