[Official] Texans 2022 Draft thread

Ive been high on Stingley since way back but man sauce is a monster

 

Jalen Hurts?

Bro give yourself a race card. Different games for sure. Hurts' arm is okay but it isn't a cannon, not close.

I like Corral. Out on Pickett and his hand deformity and 26 college fumbles. I'm good.

 

I like sauces too

 

Yes, Jalen Hurts.
Almost identical build and running styles. More of a big running back style.
Willis has a stronger arm but their throwing motion is damn near identical. Both are horribly inaccurate.
Willis has physical upside. And from what’s reported he did well on the whiteboard.
But he’s a project.
Corral is the same prospect but taller.

 

And the hand thing for Pickett is overrated. Vick had the same size hands.
He has the weird shape thumb but it fits around the football.
His biggest problem with fumbles is not keeping 2 hands on the ball.

 

I remember when Josh Allen was inaccurate too.

All I'm saying is you can't use that to write someone off anymore. You don't like Willis, that's fine. I disagree.

Ultimately what going to matter most for any of these guys success is where they end up and what is put around them coaching and otherwise.

 

I'm not talking about size, Burrow had a small hand measurement too. I just keep hearing people tell me I shouldnt worry about a deformity on a QBs throwing hand. I guess.

 

No doubt. To be fair I wouldn’t have drafted Allen that high either.
But he’s also an exception rather than the rule. Not many guys go from mid 50s to 70% percentage and one of the best QB in the league.
That being said, Allen is a large individual with the strongest arm in the league.
Willis has an arm but not Allens. And he’s barely over 6 ft.

If you drafted Willis low first and sat for a year I’d be down.

 

From what I understand it curves perfectly around the ball. Actually helps him throw

 

sure whats really the value at 3, but this happens with qbs every year, and if he pans out its worth it. same could be said about any qb

 

Very true

 

doesnt help him hold on to it

 

No doubt. Gotta focus on keeping two hands on the ball

 

doesnt he wear 2 gloves? heard his worst day at senior bowl was in the rain, lol

he may pan out fine, he had a burrow-esqe rise, and he has some burrow qualities, but im leary

 

I can understand it. He’s the most complete prospect right now.
But Willis and Corral have more upside. Their arms are live.

All 3 are very good runners.

But all are older, and Corral and Willis are undersized.

 

i dont get that, what nfl qb routinely grips it with 2 hands? he could turn into a beast but i can still see that being an issue that doesnt go away. daunte culpepper cough cough

 

but its not 1980. that hardly matters anymore

 

Every QB, it’s literally a fundamental that’s taught. Two hands on the ball until release

 

The best guys in the league besides Wilson are all 6’3 or bigger

 

mahomes aint 6'3
Deshaun
brees for years
rodgers 6'2

youre overthinking it
