It wouldn't be surprised if he goes 4th or 5th round like where Dak Prescott was taken.

The dude is fragile, immobile, and can't throw a consistent deep ball without floating them. He also turns down winning routes way too much. That's a horrible combination for the NFL. 

Sounds like about 75% of NFL QBs.

    Moore’s camp has told Bobby Burton that Trey Moore is returning to Texas. Nothing set in stone, but that would be a big deal, IMO.

That Syracuse DL had one tackle all year.

OK, but he's been coached up by an ex-Aggie Head Coach so you know he's good.

It doesn't at all. 100 percent of NFL QBs could sling it in college. Ewers struggles with this level of competition where the windows to throw are much larger and talent level much lower across the board than the NFL, and his team around him as a talent and depth advantage over everyone not named Georgia in the country. 

Of course he could develop, but he has a very long way to go to just be serviceable NFL backup level. It's why I wouldn't be surprised if he goes 4th round or later. I know he's our QB and I hope he leads us to a title, but gotta be realistic when evaluating talent and not let emotion bias cloud it. The dude is just ok as a college QB.

Holy shit you are so dumb. Ewers is a very good college QB who is now experienced and has been coached by a good QB coach. He would be a very valuable transfer target. If you would apply as critical an eye to all the other QBs in college, which is who his competition is for market value, it would be easy to see he's one of the top 2 or 3 potentially available targets if he stayed in college and transferred. 

This entire forum is the same as fan forums always are, absurdly overcritical of their own QBs and severely ignorant when it comes to QB evaluation. In just the last two weeks we've seen plenty QBs that surly morons had said they'd rather have than Ewers be complete and total garbage in the postseason (Rourke, Jennings, Milroe, Sellers, etc.) and plenty of others who demonstrate what struggling at QB in college actually looks like (e.g., the complete catastrophe of QB play in the Las Vegas Bowl).

Ewers is going to retire in his early 20s as a multimillionaire without a profession.

Brock Purdy is in the NFL.

Tom Brady didn't exactly light the world on fire at Michigan.

Plus it seems like teams are littered with mid-tier cfb QBs as backups

He had over 12K yards and 80+ TDs, while adding nearly 1200 on the ground and another 19 TDs, and that is without elite NFL talent at the skill positions. Purdy was a damn good college QB.

yeah, i would transfer to miami for 6 million if i was being forced out 

I don't know much about Miami coeds or Ewers professional prospects, but I'm rooting for him. I imagine him as some sort of young Al Bundy alter ego, going to USC or Miami, knocking up a young Christina Applegate, with a rugrat crawling on his mansion floor in Malibu/South Beach. And that's awesome.

Quinn is a very good college QB who has led our team to the two greatest seasons we have experienced in twenty years. He deserves all the fucking flowers we can throw his way. He also has the chance to improve his draft stock tremendously over the next few days/weeks. And we are all rooting for that to happen.

That being said, he’s been tremendously frustrating at times. He’s fragile and gets hurt a lot. He’s been hesitant at critical times. He’s been inaccurate with his deep ball when his WRs have been open.

It’s definitely time to move on to Arch, as Quinn has had three seasons to show what he can do, especially when you consider he was a consensus #1 overall player in his class. Something that even Arch cant claim (because Rivals are fucking dipshits).

He’s gonna have options and I hope he chooses the one that’s best for him and whatever he prioritizes. That might be NFL opportunities or with another college team.

Regardless, I’ll always fucking love the dude because of what he gave to this team, and what he might be able to do while he’s still on the team.

Fucking hook em, morherfuckers.

That might be the nicest thing you have ever said. Booze must be flowing. 

OK, y'all are right - too many mixed metaphors and stuff. What I'm trying to say is that I am happy for Ewers - I imagine him insanely rich with some hot young co-ed that he knocked up, talking about his glory days.

FYI, there’s a great thread on the Football board where our best and brightest are trying to get to the bottom of whether Quinn is good or bad. They’re getting really close, just need a few more pages of discussion. 

The clickbait bullshit on Ewers and Arch is exhausting. Nakos unfortunately is a real reporter, so there’s probably at least a discussion of an offer out there.

Leon Coleman was the 33rd pick in the 2024 Draft. $9.6 million+ guaranteed. And he’s an unrestricted FA in 4 years. Quinn has missed games in 2024, 2023, and 2022. This isn’t fucking rocket science.

Break it down for me how he's a "very good" college QB. Because the tape I've watched of this season I've seen a guy who has a good command of the offense but struggles to get the ball out on time to the right places on anything other than screens, smoke routes, and intermediate routes. Even on those he's inconsistent with ball placement.  It's just a fucking fact. 

His ypa on deep balls is near bottom of SEC QBs. His completion percentage on deep balls is average compared to SEC QBs. His ypa period is near the bottom of the SEC. He's at best a bus driver who is very fortunate to have, outside of Will Howard at OSU, the best depth and high end talent around him in all of CFB. Over the last 2 season his backups are undefeated (including UTSA where he went out in the first quarter). 

The only 2 games where he was required to put the offense on his shoulders were the Georgia games, and he failed at both, especially the SEC Title game where he turned it over twice in the red zone. 

He's a decent college QB. A little above average at best. The numbers tell the story. The tape tells the story. It's just what it is. I wish he was great, and I'd love to be able to say he's great and not a weak spot on this offense.

If he was saddled with Ehlinger's Texas teams he'd be 6-6, max. He just isn't a playmaker like Ehlinger or Colt. Or especially VY. He's somewhere between Case McCoy/David Ash and Ehlinger on the Longhorn QB scale, he's just been lucky Sark has put together one of the top 3 talented teams in the country around him for 2 years straight. 

We have everything necessary to be the favorite for the NC except kicker and QB. Those are the weak spots. I hope he transfers to another team, because it would be best for him, and also unless he drastically improves he'd be exposed with lesser talent around him.

I might need to start ignoring those who continually fail to ignore the clowns on my ignore list. 

Ewers and Nix is a tough comparison. Nix transferred to a much better situation to improve his draft stock. Ewers almost certainly would not.

Absolutely no way Auburn can be the kicker next year. Bringing him back after this game and the CCG would be pure negligence.

Agreed. There’s a classy way to do it. Sark should say Bert is dealing with an injury (15 games, something must be sore),  and he just quietly doesn’t handle the place kicking the rest of the season.
