How do you all feel about that? If he lasts that long? I think Will Grier has the moxy, the touch, and the POCKET PRESENCE to possibly be a great one.
Doubt he makes it that long with this class. Top 15 probably. He sure let me down with the Gators so it makes sense for the train to have another stop at my team in the pros so he can go 2 for 2. This would be a very opposite Cam Newton situation for me.
Honestly, he has promise but man is he gonna throw some picks in the NFL. He won't last to the 2nd and the fins aren't QB shopping in the 1st (this year ... hopefully) so I doubt this happens.
I'm not blaming him for his departure from Florida, sad to see him doing so well at WV when the gators really could use his level of talent at QB, I like Franks's arm but he's taking way to long to fulfill that potential he has. I think he made a stupid mistake getting suspended over a banned substance, not sure if there was any real intent there, but McElwan had that whole program in a dysfunctional state. Mullen is thankfully getting it back to relevance, hopefully he can help develop Franks because my goodness that kid could be special considering his physical traits, if it ever clicks fully into place.
For Grier though, I would love us to take a flyer on him, I agree in this draft class he's going to be over drafted, he's a round 2 talent I feel, but someone like a New England, Pittsburg or the Chargers who are going to need to draft a developmental guy soon, will take him at the bottom of the first. If we are aggresive enough, and we are in love with him enough, we could do something very un dolphin like and trade back into the bottom of the first. I think he gets out of the top 15, especially if Herbert and Haskins declare.
Unfortunately, an arm is the only thing that Franks has going for him. I'm looking forward to seeing Emory Jones get more snaps.
As for Grier? Meh. I dont see him transitioning to the NFL with any kind of success.
Will Grier going in round 1 now. And I want him.
What a ****ING THROW, to WIN the game at Texas!
Yes Grier was clutch and Dana Holgerson needs a wheelbarrow to carry around those big balls

Ugh.The refs tried to fix the game, but Will Grier would not be denied. That's what happened.
We may need to trade up to get him now.
Will Grier is the BEST QB in this draft class, sir.
That being said, I don’t want Grier.
He’s shown an alarming tendency this year to play “down” to the level of his competition.
This is coming from a WVU fan who thought that while Pat White was overdrafted, we’d ultimately be happy he was on our roster.
Will Grier is no Pat White.
The big stage of the NFL is gonna be too much for him. Pressure rattles him, and he throws too many BAD interceptions.
I mean, literally - I watched games this year where he forgot how to throw the ball.

Good point, sir. lolThat’s not saying much.
