He wants his offensive players to think. You have to in the NFL. Defenses are faster, more complex, and more intelligent then the average defense you face in college. You can't just make one read and, if it's not there, run for the first down in the NFL. You have to know where to throw the ball and when to throw it. A lot of spread schemes in college do not teach you how to do this. The NFL is a dog-eat-dog world. If you don't win in the first two or three years, you're fired. So coaches in the pros can't afford to spend extended periods of time teaching former spread QBs how to play in a pro-style system.
Is there no one they can draft that would fit this bill?
