    Out of all the QBs you listed, probably 2 will really do anything of significance in the NFL.

    Great college QB and Heisman contender, they have a great offense at Washington.

    As a a prospect:
    - Accuracy is just ok (not a strength)
    - Confident and aggressive, which is great to see
    - Great receivers / O Line (sacked a really low rate)
    - Pushes and drives the ball well
    - Issues with timing and footwork (over stride / elongated)
    - Missed high throws
    - Some injury history
    - Not a fast processor for a QB
    - Very good arm

    He can definitely get away with it now, come to NFL it’s not going to last for him.

    How about Drake Maye's performance....when he actually PLAYS someone? Miami, Duke, and Clemson are coming up. Otherwise, he is not worth even paying attention to.

    Again, watch football.

    I never downplayed Stroud arm talent. Because it shows on tape.

    Maye is elite, he’s performed against elite teams with inferior talent.

    Just admit you don’t watch football and jusg boxscore watch

    Also, UNC has played a top 20 schedule already with even less talent than last year

    NO, he hasn't. The ONLY games he played against Elite talent and had a decent to good game was Norte Dame early 22 (when they were 0-2) and Oregon in the Bowl game. Otherwise, he hasn't played ANYONE Good and put up good numbers.

    Minny 3-2. App State 3-2, SC 2-3, Pitt is 1-4. LOL. None of those schools are a threat to be in the top 4 of their conference, except for App State.

    You do realize that this isn’t debatable right?
    Through week 4 UNC had the 18th strongest schedule.

    You can deny it or ignore it, doesn’t make it any less true

    Look up any strength of schedule list, they’re top 20

    I can’t believe we drafted a QB who is immediately playing at a top 10 level. Surreal.

    I like Williams too but its all about FIT. Who fits the best with what system and in the system we have now.....CJ FITS LIKE A GLOVE!

    Im sure at this pace Slowik will get a HC job but like in San Fran, the system never changes.
