If that’s who they want I don’t think they would risk Him being drafted earlier.I think Fromm could be Miami's target with the Houston pick.

Great points. I like Fromm, but I don't love him. I think he would work in New Orleans or New England with the coaching staffs in place there. But he's not overly exciting. I've always thought he was a little bit like Kirk Cousins.This season served to drop Jake Fromm down to where he should be. I thought it was always inevitable. That's why I've never been particularly interested in him. The NFL has plenty of room for players of that caliber. Fromm is starting caliber. I prefer him above Herbert and I'd take him above Haskins from last year and Eason from this year. But as Slimm mentioned in another post there is zero reason for an opponent to fear Jake Fromm. Absolutely you take your chances, knowing how unlikely it is that Fromm will match point to point.
Those numbers ckparrothead posted were cute if this were the NFL and not college football, where 30 or even 35 points doesn't get you much of anything. The league forced Mitch Trubisky high into the first round when North Carolina was 44th in the nation in points per game during his only season as full time starter. This season Georgia was 49th. Fromm has managed better than that previously but nothing outstanding, nothing close to final roll call of 2018 season when the top 4 scoring teams were Oklahoma (Kyler Murray), Utah State (Jordan Love), Alabama (Tua Tagovailoa) and Clemson (Trevor Lawrence). This season the same roll call is LSU, Alabama, Ohio State and Clemson. Washington and Eason were 41st. Good luck taking him early. I already rattled off the stats and points Eason posted while blowing those 3 games as favorite of 13.5 or greater.
Fromm is a nice player. If he were at a lesser school I think he would have been a late discovered mid round fascination like Easton Stick. The Dolphins are better off understanding what they have in Josh Rosen than forcing something high with Jake Fromm.
Rosen and Darnold, BTW, were also not great at points per game while Lamar Jackson excelled in that category, especially during his Heisman season.
Fromm and Trace McSorley will take the CFL by storm in a few years
If those guys make up North they could rewrite the CFL record booksHah. I laughed. I mean truly you never know. I do think Fromm is a low floor guy, but also a high ceiling guy. So who knows.

we have so many tweeners and I like both of them in the CFL Fromm could have a 15-17 year carreer - Trace runs too much to last that long but my he would be special up here
Good point!Could you imagine the difficulties Fromm would have throwing a ball at McMahon in November, lol. Think it would kill the kid if he had to come up here.
Good point!
He will have to adjust they all gave to adjust and have to hand off / run the ball a bit -
Calgary is baumy compared to WPG /Edm/ Sask but the guy might end up in the dome with BC they like former dolphins too
Are you Canadian too? I met a guy on here from Chestermere 10 min away from me about 10 years ago lol
Cool thanks for the insight - if we start to win the fin fans will wear their colours againI have a Canadian passport, so I guess I am (don't tell anyone, I don't like hockey, as they may deport me), but I was born a bred in a combination of Newcastle in England and Majorca in Spain. Married a Canadian while I was living in the US (Florida and NYC) and ended up here in Calgary about 12 years ago. I see a few fins fans around town here, but we are few and far between. McMahon's wind tunnel thing could blow the kid over.

I can assure you the wind is far worse in Regina lol
LOL,the CFL is not for every QB lots of good looking NFL prospects better than John Beck and Pat White were lost up here. Johnny Manziel the latest tire fire. But the cerebral QB who has the arm strength to throw to the far sideline can have a good career up here. It is a league where no lead is safe and the rules favour the offense. There is a lot of gimmicky offense for the athletic QB. It usually takes about 4-5 years for the unsigned QBs to wash up on the CFL shore so to speak, but I hope Fromm sticks in the NFL I truly do.Hah. I laughed. I mean truly you never know. I do think Fromm is a low floor guy, but also a high ceiling guy. So who knows.
