Man, you're usually a really cogent and connected person, but I can't believe you think Franks would even be drafted this year, let alone make a scout team.


I said Franks wanted to go pro. Not that I thought he should go pro. I don’t think he would’ve been a top pick this year. I think he would’ve been drafted in the late rounds on size and arm talent.

But I do think he puts up better numbers next year than he did this year. And he will go pro, and he will be a first round draft pick. Franks is Josh Allen 2.0. Same size, same arm talent, better numbers against better competition.

I have no doubt about that.

Like I said: He has no reason to stay right this instant with the climate unless he thinks he has a legitimate shot at dethroning Franks. So he might leave, but it's weird it's taking so long. If he has zero chance to ever compete for the job here no matter how poorly the guy ahead of him plays, then it's definitely in his best interest to transfer


I think he will see the writing on the wall when he sees how reps are divvied out in Spring ball.

The writing's been on the wall since Franks sucked it up against CSU, Georgia then Mizzou and Trask couldn't even get on the field.

Even when he did and outperformed Franks in every category many fans thought that it was still Franks' job to lose.

If he didn't see the writing on the wall then, he's likely not going to see it now. With two broken bones in his feet (potentially the same one), I would be more surprised if he didn't just get his degree and go straight into coaching.

And P.S., you guys are way off on Franks' NFL prospects. He would have to drastically improve his numbers. He's never even had a 300 yard passing game after two years of starting. He still has a ways to go. If he can get two this year and beat a good team with his arm, maybe.

That being said:

Beck or AR15, even if they don't come I'm comfortable with the QB room. We'll need to get a body, but we've got QB1 and QB2 for at least two more years.
