This is why Burro is going to be a mediocre NFL QB

It’s important that the teams drafting any of these quarterbacks know how to build around them. McElroy said the key to maximizing Burrow’s talents is to surround him with talented players. He laughed as he said it—yes, it seems quite obvious that giving a quarterback talent is important. But Burrow’s strength is his vision and recognition. The ability to run an offense like LSU’s is predicated on having good players while spreading the ball around. “Everything in their offense last year was predicated on one-on-one matchups,” McElroy said. “Everything about it. They were going to put five wide receivers on the route tree and it’s ‘OK, where’s my best matchup? Justin Jefferson working against a safety? Thaddeus Moss against a linebacker? Ja’Marr Chase working against their second-best corner?’ The progressions for him really weren’t that significant. It was, ‘I like that advantage pre-snap, I’ll take advantage of it.’” McElroy doesn’t think that type of offense is fully realistic in the NFL, though he thinks Burrow is capable of NFL-style reads. Burrow had, McElroy said, perhaps the best college season he’s ever seen. It concerns him enough that Burrow was “so average” in 2018 to raise a “reasonable question whether he was hotter than good” in 2019. But McElroy generally believes in Burrow as a prospect.
Another Heisman winner bites the dust.

Sorry your boy needs elite talent around him to make a completion. We saw in 2018 what he can do without it. 29-0.

I guess TAMU is used to getting arse-fricked, it's not impressive anymore.

Who did he have in 2019 that wasn't available to play in 2018?

Not half as bad as NFL defenses are going to break el burro.

Good thing he’ll have AJ Green, John Ross, Joe Mixon, and Tyler Boyd.
Also let’s take this opportunity to once again laugh at Tua for never winning a Heisman or a national title as a full time starter with the greatest skill position talent advantage in the sports’ history.

Gump uses the opinion of another Gump to support his point.

Ask Andy Dalton how that worked out for him.

So what was the key to McElroy's success at Bama? You guessed it, he was surrounded by great players.

How many hours a day would you say you spend reading pre-draft analysis of LSU players?

6,000 total yards, 77% completion pct, and 65 TDs isn't really that hard
