But we will see.
I don't think it's his size that will limit him, it's his meh arm strength, imo.

I'm sure they will but more than anything I think they will start mixing up the coverages trying to confuse him. That's an area rookies seem to struggle with a lot.

Since there´s some comparison between Purdy and Mullens, one sure thing is that Purdy is more agile and quicker than Mullens. He can scramble. Mullens was pretty much a statue in the pocket. At least Purdy can move around the pocket. We´ll see. Let´s hope they can win enough games to go to the POs.

Yup...air yards, outside the hashes and deep are once again a thing in here.

Let's not compare a QB that was getting paid $100 million to the last pick of the draft making a low amount of money.

Just their weaknesses in that regard...and what the WZ will obsess over.

I see Mullens as an overachiever at the position in the NFL. Albeit one game, but Purdy seems more of a natural, in the moment during the game.

If Brock had accepted Alabama's scholarship, he'd be a high draft pick.
