Oh.. 249 yards and 3 TDs with 100 yards rushing and another TD and set the school record for 100 yard rushing games by the 3rd quarter.
Wouldn't hear me complain if we went with the electric play maker.
As I said earlier in the thread, there's no way that a 211lb running QB would survive in the NFL. Running QBs are already breaking quick enough without being that thin. I also don't think he's accurate enough to transition into a pocket QB.
Don't be surprised if he takes the Braxton Miller/Julian Edelman/Terrelle Pryor route and becomes a WR in the NFL, assuming he has the hands for it.
EDIT: Lamar Jackson's college profile and size reminds me strongly of a slightly better Brad Smith.
Jackson: 6'3, 211lbs
Smith: 6'2, 213lbs
- - -
Jackson: 57% completion
Smith: 56.3% completion

Jackson: 52 TD/20 INT
Smith: 56 TD/32 INT

Jackson: 1,571 rushing yard, 21 rushing TD best season
Smith: 1,310 rushing yard, 17 TD best season
