Judging by what I saw in the pre-season, Lance seems to be somewhat more advanced at sitting in the pocket and digesting information than Fields. But Fields looks more agile and more dangerous as a runner, and more accurate. Not too far off from what was expected.
Fields is just more polished as a passer overall…kid has been prepped to be a QB since HS. He's played the position more overall.
that said he also has his issues ingrained in him, Lance overall doesn't because he's "raw" compared to the others as far as reps go. He's a ball of clay.
I'm completely fine with Lance as the pick, What I saw in preseason is basically what I was expecting…not sure why others are having such a fit over it. He's gotta get more confident in his reads, he's gotta play football…kid played one scrimmage game almost a yr ago.

Please don't say #trusttheprocess. Yuck. The political/conspiracy theory connotation associated with that phrase makes me want to punt a poodle.
But yeah, we all knew Lance would be rough. But the talent is unmistakable, and the intelligence and intangibles are all there.
