He misses sooooo many open receivers it isn't even funny. If it's possible he throws more short passes than JG and Alex.
His accuracy improved this year but i attribute that to shorter passes and WAITING for guys to get open as opposed to throwing them open or anticipating.
He's a big hell no to me UNLESS he can be had in say 6th 7th round and the plan is to use him as a QB3 in a Taysom Hill type roll.
If we are drafting him to "groom" as a QB. HARD PASS
I´m tired of guys thinking that a QB is very good only because they saw a couple of clips with him making a good throw.
That shouldn't convince anyone, but if your prospect isn't making "wow" throws regularly, why are you even wasting time on him? It shouldn't be the deciding factor, but it should be a minimum requirement.

Good ball from Kellen Mond, throwing off the Tampa 2 LB. Notice the visible change of speed from WR Shi Smith as well. 2-minute drill at the end of the half. pic.twitter.com/q7Jwyu4Dof

this one is fookin' nice.
Similar ball from Mond here on his first TD toss to Amari Rodgers. Threw this one off the safety, who had to play two routes his way. Tough catch thru contact for Rodgers who did that all. Week. Long. #ALLIN pic.twitter.com/LCG3bBF87R

This kid is deadly accurate short to middle range and throws a nice deep ball, pretty swift on his feet as well.
Honestly, I think a lot of this Stafford and Watson talk is to push Jimmy into a restructure. They don't want to pay him 25 million bucks next year. Of course, to get him to make that deal I think you're going to have to give him more guaranteed money in place of higher overalls.

I had this kid very early as Shanny's project in the late 3rd, so I guess it could be safe to say that we can use that 3rd rounder reward or even the 4th rounder on drafting this kid or Ehlinger..
What is your fascination with MEH-linger? He's more likely to be undrafted than 3rd round, IMO
I just think that he's Niner bound... and since Shanny's from the UT I would not be surprise to see this kid come to Santa Clara to compete for the 3rd string job as a rookie..

On a side note, I don't know what it is, but something about Mond reminds me of Kaepernick. No, it's not being a light-skin black dude. But something about him reminds me of Kap. I just can't put my finger on it.
They both run similar, that long legged stride.

I don't get why this first one is considered so impressive when it isn't that accurate. Hit him in stride and the. I'm paying attention.

It's seem to be rare these days to find a QB who throws the ball in stride. It's like a lost art lol. Damnit! Throw it where he's going not where you see him!

Lol. All about value.
Elite arm strength doesn't grow on trees. Neither does mobility.

Haha true. However, making this throw accurately is a HIGH difficulty throw. But that's the point: if the QB is going to considered day one or early day two, I feel like high difficulty throws should be a prerequisite.Originally posted by Cisco0623:Originally posted by 5_Golden_Rings:Originally posted by Phoenix49ers:What a throw by Kellen Mond under pressure 👏🏾#BowlSeason pic.twitter.com/s7zWuuWf10

I mean, in stride would have been more impressive yes, but I'd still qualify that as a high difficulty throw, and one that quite a few NFL QBs can't make. The placement was adequate.
