I condemn him for being 5'9, if he's 6'3 I'd get past the immaturity thing

You want someone like that representing this team and these players? If you were the business owner of the Rams and you needed a quarterback, would you tolerate that behavior on and off the field from said quarterback? I condemn because I don't believe he has near the amount of leadership you think he does - at the single most important position on the field. And at 5'9" and with a popgun arm and lacking elite athleticism, the only reason he's being considered is because this quarterback class is weak.
I concur. I'm not going to ding him for being uber competitive and even a little immature.
I think Willis showed more in college than Levis did. Levis is a big arm and not much else.
IDK Levis under Liam Coen as his OC led Kentucky to their best season in years.
Apparently the knock on Roberston is his accuracy is very inconsistent. McShay had said you could watch him make some throws that make you think he is a top 5 guy. Then you will see wild throws that are not close to being on target. So he has mechanical issues. Fixable.
He also played in a simplistic offense where he didn't have to read defenses very much and normally just threw to his primary target. Again, you can develop that skill.
If they pass on Simpson, I would be all in on Robertson, even if you have to reach with maybe the Scheelchase comp pick if they get one at the end of rd 3.
Who knows maybe Robertson rises higher than that through this process?
Yeah this is what I saw as well. He had a game vs a 17th ranked team where I think he won it, hard to remember I watched a bunch of his stuff all at once. But at the start he missed and missed and missed.
Streaky as hell. Which I do not like. However again for a depth chart QB whatever. A two year stint on the bench includes plenty of time to nail his mechanics and see if you can get the most from him.
They were saying btw during the practice that the Arkansas kid won't make it out of round 2. He's raw as hell but looks the part.
Yep. Levis spent time running the Rams offense in college. They said Coen showed them Rams film during installs of the offense. Coen talked him up quite a bit pre-draft too.
Also he's the retread QB that we would be buying low on, as he's coming off that shoulder injury. Which is important. I don't want to spend all that much on one of these guys if we do go that route.
Agreed. The difference between them is that Willis's legs are a trump card. He needed to improve as a passer, but he didn't need to become elite at it because he's such a gifted runner. Levis has functional mobility, but he'll have to win with his arm. I think the Willis jump is easier to make. That said, I'm not opposed to taking a shot on Levis if we're buying low. Worst case scenario, we're not impressed with what we see and we draft a QB next year.
A great passer that offers nothing with legs vs. a slightly above average passer that does offer something with his legs.
I'm probably in the minority on this, but I still struggle with just how much of a drop off there would be under McVay.
