Hence why I said read it slowly, because he was clearly talking about this up coming year.He said it was solid as if it was a forgone conclusion.

We're going in circles. I knew it was about this coming year and not last year. Why you continue to harp on that is beyond me.Hence why I said read it slowly, because he was clearly talking about this up coming year.
The injury(ies) were one of my main concerns as well. Actually, I feel better about that aspect after last year.Coming off an uncertain injury, Tua was a more risky pick than Herbert.
Herbert certainly looks like he could withstand the rigors of the NFL more than Tua. That was my main concern with Tua.
Have to wonder how Herbert would have played at Alabama too, rather than in a system that didn't highlight his talents very well.
Tua definitely seemed to have the edge in accuracy and decision making. His collegiate career was certainly far superior than Herbert albeit with much more talent around him at Alabama.
Hopefully Tua will prove he was the right pick. Year one does favor Herbert.
Same here.The injury(ies) were one of my main concerns as well. Actually, I feel better about that aspect after last year.
Aside from that, I have always preffered the "prototypical" size QBs, with a strong arm.
Yes, I know that isn't everything, but it certainly doesnt hurt, all other things being equal (which they never are).
Sure you did,We're going in circles. I knew it was about this coming year and not last year. Why you continue to harp on that is beyond me.
I guess you just want to argue for arguments sake. I don't know what makes you think I meant last year, but assume what you want. He already answered my question anyways, so this is all moot.Sure you did,
You were asked to read it slower because you thought it was a foregone conclusion.I didn't. I asked how that happened and was told to learn to read lol
It's not. The odds are the same every time you flip a coin.It's far more likely to come up heads the fourth time.......
That makes sense.The injury(ies) were one of my main concerns as well. Actually, I feel better about that aspect after last year.

Brady recalls these things said about him before the draft:That makes sense.
I also think Tua is potentially a better fit for what Flores wants from the offense. His vision is probably similar to what he saw from Brady and the success in New England, i.e. quick reads, get the ball in the hands of the playmakers, limit mistakes etc.
I know.It's not. The odds are the same every time you flip a coin.
Right. And now that Brady has won a super bowl in Tampa Bay, it's ridiculous to call him a systems quarterback. That has been the narrative from detractors anyway.Brady recalls these things said about him before the draft:
--Poor build
--Skinny
--Lacks great physical stature and strength
--Lacks mobility and ability to avoid the rush
--Lacks a really strong arm
--Can’t drive the ball downfield
--Does not throw a really tight spiral
--System-type player who can get exposed if forced to ad lib
--Gets knocked down easily
Tom Brady's pre-NFL Draft scouting report will never cease to be funny
Former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady had plenty of motivation to be great before he slid to the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. On this day in 2000, the Patriots selected Brady with the 199th overall pick. He was the seventh quarterback taken in the 2000 draft. Download the...www.nbcsports.com
Yet people jumping on Tua because they think he doesn't have a good enough arm.
Yup, just arguing to argue.You were asked to read it slower because you thought it was a foregone conclusion.
