After watching him the past two years ( I live in the Louisville area) we would be making yet another big mistake. He'll bring some running ability but he's slower than Taylor. Has a published college time of 4.78. He's not like Taylor in one area though, he has no problem turning the ball over. Tebow / Andre Ware II. Slow! Are you kidding. He is the fastest QB I have ever seen. 1 1

Vick was definitely faster, but there isn't a chance in hell that Lamar is anywhere near a 4.78 lol. I don't understand how someone that lives in the area and has watched him for 2 years can possibly think he's significantly slower than the likes of Andrew Luck, Connor Shaw, and Derek Carr. 2

I'll support taking Lamar Jackson in the first round... - IF Bobby Petrino comes with him as part of the deal... Petrino is a truly special offensive mind, that can coach, and coordinate with the best of them... He's on my Short-list of HC candidates once the inevitable happens to McDermott. Yet Petrino’s offense, specifically designed for QB success, couldn’t get Jackson to that ever elusive 60% completion percentage.

But Watson had many of the same issues said about him last draft season. Accuracy down the field, reading defenses, etc. my point is from a physical standpoint Jackson has Watson beat. And Watson was and is very good. 1

The guy would have done great things for ATL had the Vick implosion not occurred... CFB teams improved practically everywhere he went... The man is an offensive genius at the collegiate level.

Literally only because the WRs couldn't catch to save their lives this year. If you adjust for drops, Lamar's completion percentage was above Darnold and within 1% of Rosen and Rudolph. 1

Pretty sure 1 out of every 9 passes Rosen threw was dropped.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 If we land Jackson I will be very excited. 2 1
LeGOATski Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 He's just too inaccurate and inconsistent to inspire confidence. That said, I would be fine if they took him at 22. I would also be fine with Rudolph, if they improved the O-line.

This post tells me you have never even watched him play, you watch any game he has played in his entire career, and then tell me he runs a 4.78. Some people will believe anything they read. 4

Petrino needs the right opportunity to show how good of an offensive mind he can be at the pro level... Jackson is probably the most talent Petrino''s ever had in a CFB player, and Petrino was able to harness, and focus that talent... After years of watching Tyrod regress, I wouldn't trust any member of this offensive staff with a young QB... If it were possible, -and it isn't, I would want to see Lojack develop under someone who already knows how to maximize his potential. 38 minutes ago, Jay_Fixit said: Yet Petrino’s offense, specifically designed for QB success, couldn’t get Jackson to that ever elusive 60% completion percentage. I doubt that Comp % was ever the big picture... Petrino's trying to win games... He know's Jackson's limitations, and strengths too well... I think that, given those, he got the best out of him.

If you adjust for drops, Lamar's completion percentage was above Darnold and within 1% of Rosen and Rudolph. That’s a cloudy conclusion. Throwing a ball high on an easy bubble screen which a receiver can’t hold on to might be a “drop” but it’s because the QB just isn’t accurate. Blaming drops is what people do when they really have nothing else to offer. 1
