The good news: Bama had 8 players drafted which I believe is the highest for us since the late '80s.

The bad news: All but a couple are on bad teams in small markets that are rarely on TV. Going to be a little more difficult for them to become superstars in the league.

Disclaimer: no offense to those of you who are fans of said small market/bad teams.

I think he is legit. The one problem that the scouts have with him is the offense that he runs? Really dont get it. Every QB is going to have to learn a new system when they join college.

He has other problems (not very mobile, locks on to primary WR, inconsistent mechanics). He can be good, but he needs some work before he's ready, just like most HS QBs

GTFO with that crap. I know you dont know what you are talking about when you said he isnt very mobile. For his size he is very mobile and I dont understand how that is even a negative. Brady and Peyton never run. What we look for in QBs and what you look for in QBs is totally different so just mind your own please.

No he's not.

Not being able to evade rushers can be a negative when you hold on to the ball too long sometimes. Peyton and Brady are masters at getting rid of the ball when they need to and staying healthy.

Which is why both Bama and AU have Bateman, Buchanan, and Ramsey near the top of their lists? Do you even realize Malzahn isn't at Auburn anymore?

Morris has decent mobility. He's not going to win any foot races but he can move around in the pocket and bulldoze his way for a few yards when the pocket breaks down. His mobility is light years ahead of where Phillip Sims was coming out of high school.

Auburn has offered just about every qb under the sun. Speaking of which, is Bama looking at Kevin Olsen?

Im guessing you havent seen this kids film because he is more mobile than Brady or Manning.

What list have you saw? Maybe Bateman but you dont know who is at the top of whose list. I know that it still seems to me that yall still offer those athletic QBs like Jeremy Johnson. How does he fit in your "new" system.

He's a major project, if you come out of Allen HS with offers from North Texas and Wake you're a project.

That's not saying much.

Although Brady moves around in the pocket better than any QB in the league.

He's more mobile, but not much. He looks pretty slow against HS defenses

Bama and AU have both offered the same QBs for the most part

He's the only one, and Loeffler is exploring his options before going after Johnson. He fits in the system, but he's a project. I think Loeffler wants a more polished guy
