I think if he were clearly, and overwhelmingly the best they would play him.

Anything other than that and there are way too many issues with flipping your depth chart like that.

During 7-on-7 drills, RB Morgan Steward ran a nifty cut back route to shed a linebacker and catch a pass across the middle from QB Eddie Printz.
S Anthony Sherrils made a great read on a deep crossing pattern and stepped in front of the pass for an interception.
QB Drew Lock lofted a pass in between the corner and the safety to WR Keyon Dilosa, who skied for the ball and came down with it for a 20-yard gain.
OL Connor McGovern and DL Charles Harris continue to have epic battles during 1-on-1 trench drills. After McGovern walled up Harris, Harris returned the favor on the next snap with a sweet spin move around McGovern before sacking the dummy QB.
On the first play of the 11-on-11 session, DL Terry Beckner, Jr. penetrated the backfield and stuffed the ballcarrier for a tackle-for-loss.
During 11-on-11, QB Maty Mauk shifted in the pocket and surveyed his options before tossing a neat shovel pass to a wide-open RB Ish Witter, who scampered for a 12-yard gain.
Mauk rifled a throw into a tight space, connecting with a streaking Nate Brown in traffic for 17 yards.
LB Joey Burkett flashed incredible reaction skills, hauling in a tipped pass near the turf and returning it 15 yards.
A few plays later, CB Aarion Penton elevated for an interception near the sideline, stayed in bounds and sprinted to the end zone for a pick-six.
On a third and goal from the 5-yard line, WR Wesley Leftwich dived for a tipped ball and squeezed it for a touchdown.
RB Marquise Doherty caught a delayed screen pass at the 9-yard line and shifted his way to the end zone for a score.
Freshman DE Nate Howard burst into the backfield and forced a sack fumble on the final drive.

I'm sure Pinkel wants to redshirt him and let Mauk start the next 2 years. Then it will be Drew's team for the next 3 years. Problem is, as happened with manzel, They can declare after 3 years, redshirt or not. NOt certain he can go early but he certainly has the size. We know Mauk is too short and probably won't be drafted at all.

That means we could lose Lock after just 1 season. what a waste if he is that good.

Head to head, I'd put money on Lock being considerably better than Mauk right now.

But a lot of other factors in play, all kinds of different angles. Zanders and Printz and the integrity of how things are done is huge too.
