You NEED an OL like that if your plan is McCorkle.
What's funny is that OL group only has ONE top 100 pick out of the bunch
You still on this I see
was I never not on this lol? he's gonna need better OL help then the others, plain and simple OR a bunch of guys that can get open quickly.
I'm not the only one that's said this either.
I think a lot of that would be negated for us after his rookie year, if he's identifying pressure and getting the ball out quickly a lot of our OL shortcomings would be rectified.
So what you're saying is the QB is instrumental in PP and it's not necessarily OL talent overall?
But I was told....
Also it sounds a lot like what we already have with Jimmy lol.
What I'm getting at is in the NFL you can't always identify pressure and get the ball out quickly (when no one is open) then what? Well what a lot of young QBs are doing is moving/extending plays with their feet to allow for guys to get open, get free yards, throw on the run etc.
Without question Mac will need a better OL compared to the other top QBs in this draft. He's not gonna get afford max protect and have dudes open immediately every play.
Ugh I wish they could stick Mac's head on Lance/Fields body lol.
