calfoxwc Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 The offensive line will really have trouble understanding him at the los. Tremendous talented kid, though. Halfback/wr passer trick plays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisville Slugger Posted December 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Yea he definitely needs to get with someone to work on his speech, but from everything I've heard is a legitmatly good person. He visited my little cousins school and her parents said he was very nice. Lamar has come along way as a passer. I didn' think he was going to be an NFL QB coming into the season. He has had to deal with a poor offensive line weak running game and an awful defense until we got Alexander and Stacy Thomas back. The most infuriating thing about him is he throws a terrible flare route to running backs. I don't understand it but that seems fixable. His accuracy is actually pretty good most of the time, but every once in a while he will throw one way off the mark. Bottom line is if we bring him along like the Seahawks did Russell Wilson I think he can really develop. Only make him throw 15-20 times a game for the first season and once he gets comfortable give him more rope. Right now I have darnold as safer prospect for a traditional offense but Lamar could be a game changer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then yeah....totally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
