That and he was dumb as a brick.
I liked locker but agree. Saw a news segment on him. Dude lives like an amish man with his family. Doesnt even watch football now. Seems happy. Big family guy. Glad for him
Probably scared of footballs. Every time he touched one he ended up injured.
Seemed like a good guy and showed a flash or 2...but I don't blame him for walking away after spending more time rehabbing than playing.
Same here! I am really glad we got him for basically a 2nd and 3rd instead of a huge trade up in the 1st that would of cost us multiple 1st rounders.
Looking at more game film and breakdowns the more I think he can really become something. I think he is a mix of Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen. He played in a pro style offense and already used to going through progressions. His 2021 tape was pretty impressive when he had a better coordinator and weapons. The 2022 team was not nearly as talented. His line was terrible, WRs had no separation, andthe play calling seemed to be run, run, 3rd and long pass. Sound familiar lol? Basically he was not put in a good position to succeed. Let's be honest, he didn't have near the talent around him that the other 3 SECs QBs taken had. I think that will help him down the road as he had to make some tight contested throws and he wouldn't get bailed out like Marvin Harris Jr did for Stroud at times. time will tell be he has the a chance to the best of the class if gets more consistent with his footwork and improves on his decision making. He seems to get tripped up when the post snap read changes from his pre snap read. I.e. Defense shows man presnap but rotates to a zone.

Good read. It going to be a big advantage that he comes from a prostyle offense.

My coworker sent me this, is Levis the new Zach Wilson?! Lol people already hate him.
Here's the problem I have with this pick. We had the opportunity to draft him at 11 and we passed on him for an OT/G. If you think Levis is your guy for the next 10 years, you don't let pass him over for an OL.
I'm not saying he can't be great, but by drafting him the 2nd round, you're already signaling you aren't totally sold on him. At least with Hooker you can use the argument that he's injured and that's why you passed on him to the next round.

So now being tough is an impediment?
To be fair to Locker, he just couldn't stay healthy. He looked like he had turned the corner in 2013. He played pretty well up until he broke his thumb. That was probably the height of his career unfortunately.
If that's your problem, then you are looking for a problem. They drafted the most immediate need first. We already had our starting qb for this season in Tanny. They have to protect him, so they drafted an offensive lineman first. If they had missed out on Levis you might have a point. But they got a better deal by getting him in the second round. And you want to complain about this because it sends the wrong signals?

I agree. I don't like the pick considering all the other holes we have. Two straight years of getting a QB, 2nd and 3rd rounds. I'll say it, I don't think he'll be good and we'll end up getting a veteran QB in free agency.
Yet everyone and their mother knew we wanted to trade up to 3 for Stroud. So clearly drafting for immediate need wasn't the only consideration.
Like I said, if you really believe he is the next great QB in the league, you don't have to the 2nd round to draft him.
How do you know they wanted Stroud? He's apparently dumb as a pile of bricks. I think Texans fans are the ones who should be complaining. Both them and the Colts reached imo.

No one knows anything in regards to who is dumb or who is smart. Do we know if Levis is smart? I don't know. But I do know the pre draft number showing passing charts; deep ball, accuracy, etc. Stroud > Levis all day.

Lol well good! Fuq the Panthers, hope they fail. I'm just hoping we win soon, Henry will be slowing down soon so we need any of our QBs to perform in the playoffs. We know Tammy isn't the guy so if it's Malik or Levis, I don't care, just want to win.
I don't think the Panther's pick has obvious cognitive issues. He may be pretty good too. But the Texans with Stroud.. Not too sure how that will work. It is all a crapshoot to some degree.
