LOL First of all its Deshaun. Secondly. Really? Tell me Mayo. How many games have you watched him play. Lets actually watch him play before saying he is Watson or better.

I've been going over all his tapes - I'm convinced he's a blue chipper.

I'd love to see what Kyle could do with this kid.

Tapes or highlights?

One thing that Watson had going for him was the clutch play vs big time programs.

I know you want to scout the player and not the school but the Watson with better arm and legs is a major stretch.

Maybe he can get there at some point but there's a good amount of work that Trey would have to put in to make that happen.

Exactly. I am all for drafting the kid at 12 IF Shanny loves him and thinks he can turn him into a legit star. But looking at U Tube highlights and saying he is Watson with a better arm and legs is crazy. Its not like the kid is facing Alabama or Clemson

He can be a poor man's Patrick Mahomes.

Could he be a working class man's Jeff Garcia?

Daniel Jeremiah recently posted an article on Trey Lance and said this about the NDSU QB (back in mid September)

He reminds me of: Andrew Luck. I know Luck is a little bit bigger, but they are similar athletes and they both played with a maturity beyond their age at the collegiate level. I remember watching Luck run over defenders. I also remember being so impressed with his ability to execute on key plays in every game. I see the same things when I study Lance. More than anything else, these are two guys who exude confidence on the field. They are fearless, but they avoid being reckless. That's a very delicate balance. Luck was on his way to a Hall of Fame career before shocking the football world and retiring a year ago. I don't have quite the same grade on Lance, but he could get there with continued growth and development.

NFL Network analyst Bucky Brooks said Deshaun Watson comes to mind.

"Trey Lance could emerge as a contender for the No. 1 spot due to his combination of athleticism, poise and playmaking ability. He reminds me a lot of Deshaun Watson with his style of play. He can carve you up from the pocket or use his legs to create plays on the perimeter. He takes good care of the ball. Most important, he wins. With NDSU producing pros at the position, scouts are going to take him seriously as a prospect, and the NFL's shift towards more athletic playmakers at the position could help him climb the charts."

Not sure about Andrew Luck, but Watson I get for sure.

In 2017, they comped Trubisky to Matt Stafford and Mahomes to Jay Cutler

That was Lance Zierlein, he does the official NFL.com draft profiles. Not DJ/Buck (they do their own).

This is what DJ said about Mitch (he has him as the 31st player on his big board).

"I couldn't find a scout or executive who was excited about DeShone Kizer or Mitch Trubisky. When you're talking to teams that already have an established signal-caller, there's no reason for them to feed me false information. In fact, it would benefit them if these quarterbacks went early, dropping talented players at other positions into their lap. I'm sure one or more of these quarterback prospects will get hot and gather some steam as we head toward the draft. Will it be one of the three mentioned above or will we see another name emerge? Buckle up. This is going to be an interesting ride."

Bucky comped him to Alex Smith.

DJ comped him to Trent Green

Both had Watson as their top QB in 2017.

Imagine setting up play action and seeing Lance bomb it 50 yards down the field to Auiyuk

This is absolutely what I'd be looking at doing. The draft has a ton of recency bias, the fact Lance hasn't played this year will hurt him.

Sure he may be able to pull some back in the off-season, but there are 3 guys who are locks to go above him. I think there's a big chance that he's there.

Absolutely wouldn't be ready to start year 1 and that also plays into our hands.

This game from Mac Jones is precisely what I was getting at, I think he's a lock to be there at 12, I also think it's a lock that we pass, but I wouldn't.

He will gone at 12
