48% completion. That's a brick thrower. He also runs like a fat fullback. Not like Justin Fields. I just don't see the hype at all.
Agreed on all points. Ugliest throwing motion in the NFL.
Some 9er peeps just can't accept that TL can't live up to the predraft hype. it's just a religion at this point as they will believe in him no matter how bad he performs on the field, even after BCB comes back to win game after game for us...
Yeah they just WANT to believe. That's it. There is no evidence you can really point to. They messed up in the draft twice. Trey was drafted way too high and Brock Purdy way too low. It happens. Teams miss at QB. If you did that draft over Purdy goes a lot higher. Trey goes lower in his IMO. They were just picking on hype and potential. But there are a lot of practical problems there. Mechanics, reading the field, game experience just to name a few.
@river: By 9er peeps, you mean the organization? Cause they are the ones who drafted him, not the people on this board
@SD: Well yeah, everyone should "want" to believe in the guy that their favorite team made the biggest trade in franchise history for. As fans, are we supposed to root for him to fail? You are correct on one thing, there isn't enough evidence that you can point to to make a definitive judgement on Trey either way.
I can't wait for Trey to prove all of you guys wrong. I'll both be here to let all of you know about it and eat crow if he's a big a bust as some of you already decided that he is.
