Depending on how true this is, respect for Kyle for being so honest. I mean it looks better if Trey actually became the guy, but hey Kyle knows QB better than a lot of coaches so it's obvious now that he's right.
Also if this quote hits nationally its gonna look bad for Trey. Which I still don't want for him cause he does seem like a genuinely good person. But this is the nfl and if he for some reason becomes the starter for Dallas at some point he will face harsher criticism with that star on his helmet.
I've always said, and still believe, that Kyle isn't very good at scouting college QBs. I think he's good at evaluating a qb when he's infront of him and trying to operate in his system, has him in practice/camp.
it's all perspective. I don't view it as a knock on Trey. If you do, then you have to think it's a knock on jimmy and sudfield too (have to remember jimmy wasn't in camp). I view it as more of a compliment to Brock.
ppeople have always joked KS is the ideal QB for his system bc he knows where the ball should go
I think QB processor is the trait that matters most for KS system...and you can't evaluate that on tape apparently
Purdy has elite elite processing skills pre and post snap....way better than Trey or JG
