Honestly Lamar's play reminds me of the guy we already have on our team, Jeff Driskel.
But actually liked Driskel's throwing motion last Preseason and i don't like Lamar's throwing motion. Too gadgety.
Not smooth at all.
Exactly. Lamar's mechanics aren't smooth and he looks as if he is thinking way to much on his throws.
I know that the pick won't happen as it would not make any sense whatsoever. A new HC and this is a different conversation, but we still have Lewis and Dalton will still be here until Lewis leaves, not that this is a bad thing neccessarily.
Now if the argument were that Jackson and Watson's reminded people of Russell Wilson and that is why they like him, then I would understand that. I would also say that Wilson is the outlier and not the norm when it comes to QBs that make plays with their legs. Not only that but all it takes is one solid hit on Wilson and he will be down and then Seattle will be in serious trouble.
As to Cam Newton. I do believe he is wearing down. He isn't the same player at the end of the season as he was in his earlier playing days. I wouldn't be surprised if Newton isn't as effective this year as he will be either asked to stay in the pocket to avoid those hits or he winds up getting hit and injured. I wish we didn't have to face Carolina until later in the season as that will be when Cam will be least effective. Of course the Ravens and Steelers get him a little later, but the Browns have him at a great spot.
